[AAACE-NLA] "Gold Standard?"

[AWilder106@aol.com]

Colleagues:

I am ready to stand corrected, BUT, I have been looking once more at the Partnership for Reading website, and I don't see why those studies are objectionable.  

There is a Denzin citation, also Kirsch/Jungeblut/Jenkins/ Kolstad, & Hayes, Greenberg, Mikulecky, Purcell-Gates, Read, Smith, Sticht, Strucker, and Venezky, probably names many of us know.

ALSO--was there ever a "national study of reading programs" as reported there would be, by Christy Gullion in January of  2002?

I've gone through a lot of the Partnership for Reading web site and it looks good. 

Also--has anyone made use of John Strucker's reading profiles on the nifl site?
