hello and welcome to another episode of the CoE lecture series where we bring you lectures discussions
2
and workshops on a variety of topics related to the broad
3
fields of education today we bring you the first of two
4
recent seminars presented by dr. Stephen Krashen emeritus professor of education
5
at the University of Southern California his topic today the power of reading.
6
Dr. Krashen's visit was co -sponsored by the Department of Language
7
and Literacy Education
8
and the LLEE graduate organization I have to do this first okay it says turn off
9
when you go to the bathroom okay did you see
10
that movie remember it was one of the police story movies where the guy kept Okay.
11
Thank you, Kristen, for that wonderful introduction.
12
I do have some comments on the introduction, though.
13
I have to add some information.
14
It's true about the black belt.
15
That is true.
16
But I got the black belt on the basis of the written examination.
17
As for the weightlifting, that part is true.
18
And that part is from my days in Venice Beach, California, and Gold's Gym where I worked out with Arnold.
19
You want some Arnold stories?
20
This is usually the only thing people remember from my talks when I mention this.
21
Yeah, I worked out with Arnold in the old days in Venice Beach
22
and in Gold's Gym and I gotta tell you a real story about Arnold.
23
Nice guy.
24
No question.
25
Absolute prince.
26
Arnold was legendary on the beach for being a nice guy and being a big help.
27
You'd be working out by yourself, you know, doing your concentration girls, and Arnold would come over and say, can I make a suggestion, please?
28
And he'd say, try it like this.
29
You know, don't quite extend.
30
Put your mind in your bicep.
31
Always right.
32
Everything he said turned out to be true.
33
We would share things.
34
You know what Arnold told me?
35
He told me, and he was always right.
36
He was already the world's number one bodybuilder,
37
Mr. Universe, three times when he came as for governor oh my airplane pilot needed no experience necessary learn on the job
38
and a colleague of mine have an article coming out about
39
how Arnold really learned English did he go through immersion
40
or was it bilingual ed which he opposes it was bilingual ed he had a good background in the first language
41
let me reintroduce myself a little as well, too, because Kristen has emphasized my background in second language acquisition, foreign language, and bilingual education,
42
which is where I come from with all this, but I feel like a country western singer crossing over in
43
that today I'm going to be talking entirely about literacy in general.
44
In fact, I'm going to be talking about the literacy crisis in America.
45
Now, what makes me an expert on the literacy crisis?
46
I am an
47
expert and i want to give you my credentials i was there when the literacy crisis began
48
the literacy crisis the literacy crisis began officially october 4th 1986
49
on a thursday afternoon three o 'clock pacific coast time it began on the oprah winfrey show
50
now what was i doing at home watching oprah winfrey At the time, I was a tenured full professor at a major research university.
51
Are there any questions?
52
What a job.
53
It was great.
54
Anyway, every time they tell you, we feel your pain, no, they don't.
55
Anyway, Oprah had this show, and Oprah's very influential.
56
She did this very compelling program about these six adult illiterates.
57
These are guys who had gone to our schools in the United States
58
and were native speakers of English and never learned to read and write at all.
59
They got passed along every year, you know, social promotion, and they described in great detail all their strategies for getting through the day, making people think they were literate.
60
You know, they go to a restaurant, wait to see what you're going to order, and they order the same thing, etc. The reason this is part of our national fabric is because of Oprah.
61
Well, it was very compelling.
62
I sent for the transcript, in fact.
63
After that, there was a made -for -TV movie with Dennis Weaver about an adult illiterate, and then we had Stanley and Iris, Jane Fonda, a full Robert De Niro,
64
a feature film about an adult illiterate.
65
If you read the newspapers, you get the impression that our schools are turning out millions of students,
66
millions of children, who can't read and write at all.
67
Guess what?
68
It's not true.
69
Of course, they also say that teachers are to blame.
70
That's not true either.
71
In fact, if you look at the research, and I've looked at it, I just told you I'm a professional, okay?
72
You look at the research, you see that literacy in America, I'll write this big enough so the first three rows can see,
73
literacy in America has been on a steady increase for the last hundred years.
74
In fact, it's very hard to find anyone in this country who's gone to our schools who's completely and totally illiterate.
75
These people are very rare.
76
In fact, they're so rare when you find them, they get on Oprah Winfrey.
77
That's how rare they are.
78
There is a problem, but it's not the problem that the media has been talking about.
79
In fact, I'm so down on the media, I don't even believe the sports section anymore.
80
I mean, that's how cynical I've gotten, okay?
81
Anyway, are you sure that was the score?
82
Okay.
83
Anyway, you look at research on literacy, you see we are a very literate country.
84
Literacy, as I've said, has been rising for the last hundred years.
85
Total illiteracy is extremely rare.
86
The problem, though, is that the demands for literacy have been increasing faster.
87
That's the problem.
88
Our teachers have been very successful at making people literate the problem is getting harder and harder.
89
That's the problem.
90
If you talk to automobile mechanics, for example, they'll tell you the reading and writing they have to do is much more demanding than it was 15, 20 years ago.
91
Computer manuals, technical forms, legal things,
92
etc. So the issue is not how do you get from no literacy to low levels of literacy.
93
Everybody gets there.
94
Let's call this basic literacy somewhere between second and fourth grade literacy literacy.
95
Everybody gets there.
96
They get there at different rates.
97
Are you with me?
98
Say yes.
99
They get there at different rates because human beings do everything at different rates.
100
The typical definition of low literacy is the lowest quartile, the lowest 25%.
101
So newspaper article says 150 ,000 kids have sent to summer school because they're low literacy.
102
Well, they're the lowest quartile.
103
You could quadruple literacy scores and you would still have the lowest 25%.
104
Am I the only one who understands this?
105
We have a math problem in this country.
106
While I'm on this, let me use you as my therapy group for a moment.
107
This is very frustrating.
108
We want all kids at grade level, right?
109
You've heard that?
110
Do you know what grade level is? it's the 50th percentile you see what's wrong?
111
we want everyone above average no, it can't be done when I tell people about that they say,
112
well, we'll try hard this is a math crisis anyway, we want to get this we've done
113
we want to get to the higher levels the 6th grade
114
level the 10th grade level the 12th grade level that's what we're really interested in if that's Lady Gaga Oh my God, the answer is no. I'm busy.
115
Can't help her today.
116
I know how to do it.
117
I know how to get from lower levels to high levels.
118
I know how to develop academic literacy.
119
I know how to bring people to the highest levels of literacy.
120
I know all about it because I'm an expert.
121
And the answer, we all know, is one word.
122
Reading.
123
And there's one kind of reading that works better than any other, and it was the kind of reading you did last night before you fell asleep.
124
How many of you read last night before you fell asleep?
125
How many of you, like me, read last night even though you shouldn't have, it was too late?
126
This is addiction.
127
The kind of reading that really counts is the reading you and I do all the time that we do obsessively.
128
We call it free voluntary reading.
129
F -E -R.
130
Reading because you want to.
131
No book reports, no questions at the end of the chapter.
132
You don't like the book, you put it down, you pick up another one.
133
Free voluntary reading is the source, in my opinion, of our reading ability.
134
It's the source of most of our vocabulary, all of our educated vocabulary just about comes from reading, in most cases.
135
Our ability to handle complex grammatical constructions.
136
Most of our ability to spell, to spell well, not perfectly, but to spell well.
137
Well, all of this, our ability to write with a good writing style, much of our knowledge of the world comes from reading.
138
Now I don't want to oversell this.
139
I don't want to say if kids read a lot, they'll all go on to the university and get master's degrees.
140
That may or may not happen.
141
But if they start to read, they're going to have a chance.
142
If they don't start to read, they're not going to have a chance.
143
I want to take a few minutes...
144
We have till, what, 7 .30?
145
Is that right?
146
I've ordered pizza for 6 o 'clock.
147
Fast times at Ridgemont High, right?
148
Anyway, I want to show you a little bit of the research, and I've got some charts here to back it up.
149
The case for free voluntary reading, and I really want to go through this to some extent because this research, for many of you who are becoming teachers,
150
is going to make your lives easier.
151
This is a money -back guarantee.
152
If this does not work for you, I will return the entire $50 honorarium and divide it equally among you.
153
This research is going to make your professional life about 5 % easier.
154
That's not bad.
155
But let me give you the data behind it.
156
No discussion of reading would be complete without talking about how it started in the United States
157
and it started in a book with a book
158
that came out around 1965
159
which you can still get in paperback it's called Hooked on Books the author is a guy named Daniel Fader
160
Daniel Fader worked with boys who were in reform schools reform
161
school boys juvenile delinquents native speakers of English juvenile delinquents between ages 12
162
and 15 one group got the Hooked on Books program each boy was given a paperback book this is yours.
163
Do with it what you like.
164
If you read it, fine.
165
If you don't read it, fine.
166
But you want a new one?
167
Turn it in.
168
You get a new one.
169
No overdue finds, no book reports, no nothing.
170
They had a pretty good idea what the boys' interests were.
171
Now, this is back in the 60s.
172
The favorite author?
173
Ian Fleming, James Bond.
174
The boys read the books.
175
When you give kids interesting things to read, they will read them, no question.
176
Some of the boys, in fact, averaged a book every other day for a whole year, all voluntary.
177
He gave them tests at the end of two years.
178
The readers improved in everything, attitude towards school, writing fluency,
179
writing complexity, etc. The comparison group stayed the same or went down.
180
Now, Fader was clever enough not to just rely on test scores.
181
He looked at the boys' behavior in their daily lives.
182
For example, he looked at their behavior during basketball games when they watched their school team play against other schools.
183
During halftime, timeouts, free throws, some of the boys were looking at their books, which they had in their back pockets.
184
We've known this since 1965.
185
I have a couple of studies I want to share with you that are examples of what we call SSR.
186
SSR means sustained silent reading.
187
Some of us remember when it was called USSR.
188
It's true.
189
Uninterrupted sustained silent reading.
190
Anyway, in sustained silent reading, you take a few minutes out of the school day and the students read.
191
The students read whatever they want to read.
192
10, 15 minutes or so.
193
And the teacher gets to read whatever the teacher wants to read.
194
Now we've got to find out if this works.
195
I have calculated if you do 10 minutes a day,
196
you're a teacher, you do 10 minutes a day of sustained silent reading with one class over a normal teaching career,
197
this amounts to about three months paid vacation.
198
Do I have your attention?
199
Okay, teaching is tough enough.
200
Anyway, in the typical study, one group does sustained silent reading, and the other group does skill building,
201
the traditional program, and you know what that is all the things that our state governments, the federal governments, Pearson publishers, McGraw -Hill publishers want you to do more of.
202
And as many of you know, to some extent, it's the same people.
203
Anyway, you then give them tests of reading comprehension, vocabulary, and you see which makes the greater gains.
204
The research in favor of sustained silent reading on this stuff, in my opinion, is overwhelming.
205
I'll give you the bottom line.
206
The worst thing that happens in these studies, the worst result is no difference.
207
They make the same gains.
208
Now, think about this.
209
Which is easier on the children?
210
Free reading or workbook exercises?
211
You don't know?
212
Let me try this again.
213
Let me reverse it.
214
Which is easier on the kids, workbooks and exercises or free reading?
215
Free reading, thank you.
216
Which is easier on the teacher?
217
Free reading.
218
So if there's no difference in test scores, which is better?
219
Free reading, of course.
220
I also find in looking at the studies that the studies that show no difference are nearly always short -term studies, some as short as.
221
two months, 10 weeks.
222
Now, I've seen sustained silent reading programs, and I now know what some of you know.
223
The first couple of weeks, nobody's reading.
224
They haven't found a book yet.
225
When you give the program a chance to run, the readers are better.
226
I found the cutoff to be about an academic year.
227
You let her run an academic year longer, the readers are consistently better.
228
Well, I want to show you a couple examples, and you'll see on the handout what happened to me the day I discovered Excel.
229
Two studies.
230
In fact, I'm going to reproduce some of this on the board.
231
I just pulled out these two because I find them, first one I find, the most significant study.
232
It was published in a journal called the Reading Research Quarterly.
233
Now, those of you who know the reading journals
234
know that the Reading Research Quarterly is the number one snob journal in reading.
235
Most of the articles in this journal are long, dense, and nearly completely incomprehensible, which is why everyone thinks it must be the best journal in the field.
236
The only people who can read these articles are monks who have meditated for years
237
and can have these great powers of concentration.
238
And that's where it came out.
239
The author, which is great, the first author is Warwick Elley, who is our hero, and his colleague,
240
Francis Mongubhai, another really interesting guy I've worked with.
241
Warwick Ellie is a retired professor from New Zealand.
242
It's important I tell you this.
243
And he is well -respected by everybody in the field.
244
He has done his work for the field.
245
Let me tell you, he's been the editor of this, the director of this, the president of this.
246
He's really put in a lot of time and effort.
247
Everybody likes him.
248
So he was one of the authors of this study.
249
The study took place...
250
By the way, I'm deliberately presenting to you research from very different areas so you can see the universality of these results.
251
The study was done in the Fiji Islands.
252
This is an EFL study.
253
Children in the Fiji Islands begin English in kindergarten for 30 minutes a day.
254
In Ellie and Mangubhai's study, and I'm going to reproduce on the board, which is already on your handout,
255
the children were looked at by Ellie and Mangubhai between grades 4 and 6 and...
256
I'm sorry, grades 5 and...
257
Was it 5 and 6 or 4 and 5?
258
4 and 5, thanks.
259
They divide the kids into three groups.
260
One group got the audio -lingual method,
261
which, in my opinion, is a combination of everything that's wrong in language teaching combined into one method.
262
You know, grammar drills, tests, force -speak, all this stuff.
263
Second group got sustained silent reading.
264
Here are the books boys and girls enjoy.
265
That was the only treatment.
266
I have to emphasize, the books were comprehensible.
267
They'd had English since kindergarten.
268
A third group got a program called Shared Book Experience, which we know of here as big books.
269
Children are read to from very large books.
270
The teacher discusses the stories with them, and they do free reading.
271
I'm now going to put on the board what's already on your sheet, and that's the gains in reading comprehension on standardized tests after the first year.
272
Now let me emphasize what we've got here.
273
We've got Warwick Ellie, who's a very well -respected scholar.
274
Standardized tests.
275
The Reading Research Quarterly, the flagship journal of the field, the most conservative journal in the field.
276
This was not published in the newsletter of the American Communist Party.
277
How did it come out?
278
We expect native speakers to gain ten months in a year.
279
Let's see how these children did.
280
Audiolingual, sixth grade, as you see on your sheet.
281
Six and a half months gained.
282
Sustained silent reading, and I regard this next number as one of the most significant in our field.
283
Fifteen months gained.
284
Not even close.
285
Big books, 15 months' gain.
286
Audio -lingual, 5th grade, a pathetic 2 1⁄2 months' gain.
287
Sustained silent reading, a modest but respectable 9.
288
Big books, 15.
289
The readers were better.
290
The second year of the project, this 9 disappeared.
291
These groups were equal and were even farther ahead of the audio -lingual group.
292
They were better in reading, better in writing, better in listening, better in grammar, better in everything tested.
293
ELI replicated this result in Singapore.
294
I refer to this as the Singapore study in another major journal, Language Learning.
295
Very similar results, get this,
296
the students who did reading did better on grammar tests than those who had grammar classes,
297
which was basically test preparation.
298
Very interesting.
299
Now, why should this happen?
300
I think it happened because the students couldn't help it.
301
if you read a lot your knowledge of the conventions of writing your knowledge of vocabulary, grammar it's acquired,
302
not learned it's subconsciously absorbed it's stored deep in your central
303
nervous system it becomes part of you they had no choice
304
but to write well let's say there are a hundred people here I just made
305
that up and let's say I asked you to write something don't worry, I won't but let's say we each wrote a page and we traded it with our neighbors papers and evaluate it.
306
A hundred people here, there would be a hundred respectable papers.
307
There wouldn't be a bad one in the room, I promise you.
308
We all make little mistakes here and there, tiny little punctuation, spelling, but all of it would be good, be very accurate, and it would be coherent.
309
All your papers would be easy to read, easy to follow.
310
You always write correctly, you have no choice.
311
You cannot write poorly, you don't even know how.
312
The only way you can write poorly is if you've just read a pile of student papers.
313
Okay?
314
Comes to reading.
315
You go to someone's house, there are books everywhere, you would be amazed to see a sample of their writing with serious problems.
316
It's extremely rare.
317
The next big table is a study I published in a free journal.
318
Check it out, folks.
319
IJFLT .com.
320
Free journal.
321
International Journal of Foreign Language Teaching.
322
I decided to look at all the studies I could find in EFL, English as a foreign language, in high school and college.
323
I thought this would be a good laboratory because in these cases, many of these cases, students' major exposure to English is in these classes.
324
And the first column, the study column, are the papers, the studies themselves.
325
And these are from various countries, Yemen, Korea, Taiwan, Japan, Singapore,
326
etc. The last two columns are the results of two kinds of tests.
327
We call it a closed test, where you delete every fifth word or sixth word, and the student puts the word in, which turns out to be a test that correlates very highly with other tests.
328
So it's a good general test.
329
It's a lousy pedagogical technique, but it's a good test.
330
The last column is reading comprehension the numbers you see there are called effect sizes.
331
I'll tell you what those are.
332
If the effect size is positive, the ones who had sustained silent reading did better.
333
In every case, the numbers are positive.
334
In all these studies, the students who had sustained silent reading did better than the comparison groups.
335
No exceptions.
336
That's pretty remarkable.
337
The size of the effect is what counts here.
338
Effect size of around 0 .2, 0 .3 is considered low.
339
Effect size of 0 .4, 0 .5, modest.
340
0 .7, 0 .8, you're really getting there.
341
For both of you who remember your statistics class,
342
effect size of 1 .0 means the experimental group was one standard deviation better than the comparison group.
343
Okay, everyone else, come back.
344
The average effect size between 0 .4 and 0 .7, depending on how I calculate it.
345
In other words, this stuff really works.
346
Sustained silent reading works everywhere we've tried it.
347
I want to supplement this with case histories, which I find to be very, very convincing.
348
People say, oh, just case histories.
349
But if you do enough of them, you see patterns.
350
And I find these quite interesting.
351
The first one is politically loaded.
352
Jeffrey Canada is the hero of a movie called Waiting for Superman.
353
He is the founder of the Harlem Children's Zone of schools,
354
which emphasizes hard data, tough love, etc. He wrote an autobiography,
355
which is all about growing up in New York in tough areas and living with violence all around.
356
There are two versions that are published.
357
There's a regular version and a graphic novel version.
358
I, of course, read the graphic novel version.
359
And about two -thirds through, here's what he says.
360
I loved reading and my mother, who read voraciously too, allowed me to have her novels after she finished them.
361
My strong reading background allowed me to have an easier time of it in most of my classes.
362
He also had a friend, his best friend was a reader, they found books, shared them.
363
Children who grew up with poverty who have access to books are the ones who make it.
364
Those who don't, don't make it.
365
This is the conclusion I'm coming to.
366
Another case, Liz Murray, who wrote a book called Breaking Night, similar case, grew up in New York under extreme poverty.
367
Here's what she did.
368
She said in her novel, in her autobiography, she said she only showed up in elementary school the last
369
couple of weeks before the examinations just to find out what was going to be on the test.
370
Her father had this interesting habit.
371
But in those days, the public libraries in New York were not connected by computer.
372
They were all independent.
373
So her dad had this practice of going to a local public library in New York area, getting a library card, taking out all the books he could and never returned them.
374
Then he'd go to another library, take out all the books he could and never returned them.
375
So she had this huge house of fugitive library books all over.
376
Here's what she says.
377
Any formal education I received came from the few days I spent in attendance,
378
mixed with knowledge I absorbed from random readings of my or daddy's ever -growing supply of unreturned library books.
379
And as long as I still showed up steadily the last few weeks of classes to take the standardized test, I kept squeaking by from grade to grade.
380
Now, people who think that comic books are bad for you might consider or lead you to lives of crime, which is what people claim.
381
Consider the case of Nobel Prize winner Bishop Desmond Tutu, who said this was his route to English.
382
One of the things I'm most grateful to my father for is that contrary to educational principles, he allowed me to read comics.
383
I think that's how I developed my love for English and for reading.
384
Some of you have read Richard Wright's autobiography, a wonderful writer called Black Boy, about growing up in the segregated South.
385
He says he grew up in a family where reading and writing was actually discouraged.
386
His grandmother did not approve of fiction.
387
She'd be right at home on the Common Core Curriculum Committee.
388
She thought these are stories, you shouldn't be doing this, you'd stay with the real world.
389
A boarder lived in the home, a school teacher, she read stories to Richard, told him stories.
390
Grandma found out and asked her to leave.
391
He took a newspaper route only so he could read the newspaper.
392
He finally got access to books by borrowing a library card from a white friend of his
393
and was able to take books out of a public library pretending they were for someone else.
394
Here's how he describes his writing development.
395
I wanted to write, and I did not even know the English language.
396
I bought English grammars and found them dull.
397
I felt I was getting a better sense of the language from novels than from grammars.
398
Wow.
399
Well, let's say this is true.
400
Let's pretend I've made the case that free voluntary reading is the way this happens.
401
If this is true, how do we get kids to read?
402
Should we give them pizza?
403
Remember Book It Pizza Hut?
404
Alfie Cohn discusses this in his book Punished by Rewards, and he quotes a friend of his who says, if you give kids pizza for reading,
405
all you're going to get is a lot of fat kids who don't like to read.
406
I'll explain why that's true in a moment.
407
Then there are all kinds of newspaper articles about children, principal has to sit naked on the school roof for two weeks
408
or eat worms or dye his hair green or whatever because kids read 4 ,000 books or whatever.
409
Newspapers love this stuff.
410
I don't see the motivation there.
411
Anyway, that's the idea that we have to record, we have to reward kids for reading
412
and the most popular way of doing this is to use a commercial program called Accelerated Reader.
413
Now, again, for both of you who haven't heard of this, Accelerated Reader is in one -third of all the schools in the United States.
414
It's a reading management program.
415
It works like this.
416
The child types the name of the book into the computer.
417
The quiz pops up.
418
Low -level questions.
419
So there's no ambiguity about the answer.
420
And usually questions that are not too important to the theme of the book was Hermione left -handed or right -handed.
421
I just made that up.
422
Exaggeration.
423
You get points for how many you get right.
424
You need to get at least 6 out of 10 right to get credit.
425
At the end of the year, you can turn in your points for a baseball jacket or whatever reward you want.
426
This has become the reading curriculum in a lot of schools.
427
I was asked by a journal, the Journal of Children's Literature, to do a survey of accelerated reader research, and I happily accepted.
428
It was a lot of fun.
429
I looked at every single paper ever done on Accelerated Reader.
430
Only a few were in professional journals.
431
Most of them were a couple of dissertations, but most of them were from the Accelerated Reader company, Renaissance Learning, from their website as advertising their product.
432
I accepted those at face value just to see how it would come out.
433
In order for me to give you my results, let me review for you what Accelerated Reader does.
434
It has four components.
435
Number one, when you order the program, you have to order books.
436
Lots of them, or it doesn't work.
437
Number two, time to read.
438
Renaissance Learning recommends 60 minutes a day.
439
Wow, Sustained Silent Reading is like 10 minutes.
440
This is a lot of time.
441
Number three, the tests, the quizzes.
442
And number four, prizes.
443
Now, based on what I've said so far, of these four elements, which are the ones we know really work?
444
Books and time, one and two.
445
Terrific.
446
So if you want to be a scientist, what you want to do is compare books and time to books,
447
time, tests, and prizes to see whether the tests and the prizes add anything.
448
So far, so good?
449
They've never done that.
450
Instead, they compare it to doing nothing.
451
You see what the problem is?
452
Let me put it to you this way.
453
I've just invented this new anti -anxiety medication.
454
I'm going to make a lot of money on it.
455
It's called Calm.
456
And it has two elements.
457
Sugar and Zoloft.
458
Prozac and I've given this to a lot of people and they all feel much better.
459
Can I say I've got a new product here?
460
No. We already know that Zoloft works and all that sugar is not really good for you.
461
Same idea.
462
We already know that this works.
463
The issue is whether the tests and prizes are adding anything.
464
So my conservative opinion on the accelerated reader research is that we don't know.
465
And my conservative advice when people ask me
466
if you've got a couple thousand dollars in your book budget don't buy accelerated reader, we have no evidence although I suspect it doesn't work
467
but we really have no evidence use the money to buy books for the library the classroom libraries,
468
the school libraries this we know absolutely works now this is my conservative conclusion
469
let me give you my conjecture
470
I learned the word conjecture from my son who's now sitting on the floor in the back, Danny
471
in the math department here and Danny has pointed out to me
472
Danny has pointed out to me that in mathematics if you have a hypothesis that you're not really sure of, that's really borderline, you can call it a conjecture.
473
Then you can say, well, it was only a conjecture.
474
So I have a conjecture on this.
475
Actually, it's Alfie Kohn's conjecture.
476
I'll tell you about Alfie Kohn.
477
He's a really interesting guy.
478
AlfieKohn .org.
479
Check out his website and his interesting books.
480
In his book, Punished by Rewards, here is his conjecture.
481
And this is based on, actually it's pretty well established, based on studies in psychology and education.
482
He says that if you give someone a reward for doing something that's already pleasant,
483
what you're telling them is that it's not pleasant.
484
And that no one would do it without a bribe.
485
He tells the story of this old man who lives in a house.
486
Kids come and play outside, they make a lot of noise, and he wants them to go away.
487
So he goes outside and says, tell you what, come back tomorrow and play and make a lot of noise.
488
I'll give you a dollar.
489
Great.
490
So they do it.
491
Next day he says, okay, 75 cents.
492
All right.
493
Next day, 50 cents.
494
Fine.
495
When it gets down to 10 cents, the kids say, we're not going to do this for a dime. And they never return.
496
We might be extinguishing behavior when we give people rewards.
497
There have been no long -term studies of accelerated reader.
498
We don't know what happens in the long run, whether children will stop reading because they're not getting the reward anymore.
499
So if we're not going to use bribes, we're not going to use pizza, what are we going to do?
500
We'll have a radical suggestion.
501
Probably the best motivator of reading that we know of is reading itself.
502
students who are involved in sustained silent reading programs when you look at how they're doing at the end of the year,
503
they're doing more reading on their own than students who are not in the program
504
and another area of research is presented to us inspired by the work of Jim Trelese
505
those of you who don't know how many of you have heard of Jim Trelese?
506
he's the author of a book called The Read Aloud Handbook.
507
Okay?
508
Danny, did I ever tell you what my mom said about The Read Aloud Handbook?
509
She read it, my mother, Danny's grandma, and she, it's a beautiful book, it's amazing.
510
And my perfect mother said...
511
Stephen, why can't you write like this?
512
And I said, I wish I could, okay?
513
It's absolutely wonderful.
514
Anyway, in the read -aloud handbook, which is, I think, put read -alouds on the map in North America, overwhelming bestseller, beautifully written.
515
He does great presentations, et cetera.
516
He introduced, two editions ago, a concept called the Home Run Book, which he got from Clifton Fadiman,
517
who said one's first book, one's first kiss, one's first home run are always the best.
518
My first home run was the best.
519
It was also my last.
520
But you know, I'm not a complete nerd.
521
I go to the gym, work out and all that.
522
I don't mind getting in a ball game.
523
I was in a game last spring.
524
I was pitching.
525
I had a no -hitter going for six innings.
526
then the bell rang and the big kids came out oh well
527
we decided to check out this idea of the home run book
528
which says that one positive reading experience can make you into a reader correct we did it with 4th graders,
529
5th graders, 8th graders we asked kids was there one experience
530
that got you into reading over half of the subject said yes and they told us what the book was Garfield,
531
I found something better than television.
532
Captain Underpants changed my life.
533
My gosh, you want subversive literature, check out Captain Underpants, etc. So reading itself, the big one though, in addition,
534
read alouds, literature, all gets kids into reading, the big one is making sure there is access to books.
535
This is the major thing.
536
We must make sure books are there.
537
And we've done a very poor job in doing this.
538
The problem is, is that children, and I'm going to emphasize this tomorrow a bit more, children of poverty have practically no access to books.
539
They have fewer books in the home, they have fewer books in their school libraries, in their classroom libraries, and they live in neighborhoods with fewer bookstores.
540
In fact, when you look at wealthy children versus poor children, and the ratio of books per child is the differences in the thousands to one.
541
Wealthy children, children of high income families, one researcher said, are deluged with books.
542
Children in poverty have a hard time finding books anywhere.
543
I want to share with you one of the studies we've done on this.
544
I'll talk about this more tomorrow, which I think might be the most important of all the studies I've ever looked at, I've ever participated in.
545
What you have on your sheet, it says Multiple Regression Analysis, and I'm going to give you the English language translation of that.
546
This is a study I've done with two of my former students.
547
They were students of mine in the 90s, and we're still hanging together doing studies.
548
Exciting.
549
This was based on the Pearl's examination.
550
The Pearl's examination is given to kids in 40 different countries, 10 -year -olds, and when the results are announced,
551
the newspapers get very excited because they want to know who won.
552
Germany wants to know if they did better than France.
553
Korea wants to know if they did better than Japan.
554
And every country declares a literacy crisis except Finland because Finland always comes out on top.
555
We ignored all that.
556
By the way, Alfie Kohn recommends that the test scores be put in the sports section.
557
Anyway, we ignored all that.
558
Instead, we looked at the factors and the PEARLS manuals just gave us all the raw data we needed.
559
All we needed to do was put it in the computer.
560
We did analysis to see which factors were the most important, which predicted reading scores the best.
561
We did several analyses.
562
We did one very complex analysis where we put in everything
563
that we could find and then tried to boil it down into simpler factors.
564
And then another one, which I like better, statisticians call it planned comparisons.
565
You pick out the factors in advance that you want to test
566
and you ignore everything else all the analysis came out the same.
567
So I'm going to give you the simple one.
568
First, we looked at poverty.
569
Poverty was a very strong factor and, of course, negative.
570
The higher the level of poverty, the lower the scores.
571
Number two, we looked at sustained silent reading.
572
What percentage of children in each country had a chance to do free reading in school?
573
The more they could do sustained silent reading, positive factor, but quite modest.
574
Fairly low, but it was there bordering on statistical significance.
575
The third factor we looked at was school libraries.
576
Presence of a school library of at least 500 books.
577
By the way, multiple regression is a very nice technique.
578
It allows you to pretend, through doing mathematical magic, that each of these factors is independent.
579
They don't influence each other.
580
Anyway, this is the big one, folks.
581
The presence of a school library was a strong factor and positive, nearly as strong as the effect of poverty.
582
I'm pausing for effect.
583
What this suggests is that supplying books in a school library can balance,
584
mitigate, offset the effects of poverty on reading comprehension scores, providing the access that was missing.
585
This is big stuff.
586
We then looked at the number of hours of actual reading instruction the effect was modest and negative
587
the more reading instruction the worse now I don't want to
588
jump to conclusions although I'd love to in this case it could be the case that children who had
589
poor reading had to have more instruction my suspicion is
590
if you graph it out and this is a conjecture that
591
if you looked at it would probably look like this from
592
no instruction to a little you probably see gains A little basic alphabetics and all that is helpful.
593
After that, diminishing returns.
594
On the chart, you see something there called R squared.
595
It says R squared equals 0 .63.
596
What this means is that if you know the poverty level of the country, you know if they're doing sustained silent reading,
597
you know about school libraries and you know about instruction,
598
this is 63 % of the data you need to predict their reading scores.
599
Wow.
600
This is science fiction.
601
This is really high.
602
Because in education, you get R -squared to .2, you think you're doing very well.
603
You can explain 20 % of what's going on.
604
Here we're getting nearly two -thirds.
605
We thought we had done something wrong.
606
It was too good to be true.
607
But other studies have found the same thing.
608
So in conclusion, I have a little closing number before we do questions.
609
But let me come to conclusion.
610
Reading works.
611
How about that?
612
Free voluntary reading.
613
We've discovered Remember that reading is good for you, and if we want to encourage reading, by far the big necessary factor,
614
access to books, libraries, libraries, libraries, libraries.
615
Let me conclude, I've given you information that I think is of use to you right now,
616
used to us as teachers and dealing with our children, et cetera.
617
Let's fight for libraries.
618
Anyways, let me give you some new research looking around that will probably be of use to you, taking a good look at you guys,
619
in about 40, 50 years.
620
Our latest research from the scientific laboratories of the University of Southern California.
621
I've been very, very interested in aging and the brain.
622
I got interested in it because there is some dementia in my family on my dad's side and I think,
623
you know, I want to prevent this and also I've had some very horrible experiences I must share with you
624
and I'm still in recovery
625
one of them happened in Philadelphia when I was visiting my son and family when they were in Philadelphia now in Philadelphia, you land in the airport
626
and you have to take this train The train takes you into the train station in the city.
627
I got on the train, and the sign says, $11, fair.
628
My gosh, that's a lot of money.
629
Senior citizens, $1.
630
Great.
631
Must show ID and Medicare card.
632
I had my Medicare card.
633
I was ready.
634
The conductor comes through, this punk kid, and I have my dollar ready, and I have my Medicare car ready.
635
I give him the dollar.
636
I'm about to show him my card.
637
He looks at me and says, oh, that's okay.
638
They should be told, no matter how old the person looks, always check ID.
639
Okay, Sonny, here you are.
640
Well, there's a balance on this, actually.
641
I have to tell you what also happened to balance this.
642
And this is also why Adam Sandler is my favorite Hollywood personality.
643
Good old Adam Sandler.
644
He can do no wrong after this and I tell everyone I can about it because he deserves all the credit.
645
Maimonides says the highest form of charity is when the person doesn't know.
646
This is pretty close.
647
I was in the Malibu gym.
648
The only people in the gym were me, My daughter and my granddaughter,
649
the adorable Sydney Amelia, who was like seven months old.
650
My daughter was pumping iron, and my job was to take care of the baby.
651
Okay.
652
Adam Sandler walked in.
653
He came up to me and said, the absolute best thing you can say to someone my age, he said, oh, is this your child?
654
Yes!
655
I said, no, it's my granddaughter.
656
And he gives me the equivalent of the masculine hug, you know, the little punch.
657
And he says, good -looking grandpa.
658
He can do no wrong, as far as I'm concerned.
659
This is a real man.
660
Nobody else was around to see it.
661
Anyway, so I got interested in the research.
662
And the research, I did a paper on this, which is now being translated into Chinese.
663
Is that cool or what?
664
It's being translated into Hong Kong.
665
Anyway, three factors can keep the brain young and prevent dementia from prematurely occurring.
666
Actually, I'm not too worried about dementia.
667
I follow the wisdom of Bill Cosby, who said, don't worry about senility.
668
When it comes, you won't know it.
669
It's made me feel better.
670
Anyway, factor number one, bilingualism.
671
Isn't that neat?
672
people who are bilingual have better executive
673
control
674
this means not getting distracted what was I doing people who switch all the time back
675
and forth in language you know how it is, you get up in the morning you go down and get the newspaper, you go outside and you see something on the lawn, you take care of that, put it away you see something else, you put that away
676
and you forget why you went out there in the first place we all do
677
that and we do more of it as we get older but bilingualism slows that down isn't that nice number two,
678
reading Reading, free, voluntary reading.
679
People my age who read a lot have the same verbal memory as people in their thirties who read less. And number three, coffee.
680
Is that cool or what?
681
Now when I'm going to tell you what the research says, this takes discipline and dedication
682
but i know you can do it three cups of freshly
683
brewed coffee a day all the studies converge on this people
684
in independent laboratories will delay senility significantly this is great news
685
in fact there's one study where they extrapolate i know there's one study where they extrapolated from mice
686
and the conjecture i love that word thanks it's wonderful the conjecture is this might reverse Alzheimer's, because it did in these mice,
687
the equivalent of five cups a day.
688
Now, what I find interesting...
689
Oh, by the way, a former student of mine, Kyungsook Cho, said, why don't you tell Starbucks about this?
690
Okay, because I figure, you know, Starbucks has these little words of wisdom on their cups, okay, so maybe they'll include this,
691
and they'll include reading and bilingualism.
692
Yes, we can get in a few points.
693
So I sent...
694
I wrote a note to Starbucks.
695
I found the address on their website, the email address, and I wrote, and I said, I have this paper, are you interested in it?
696
They wrote back, and they said, I'm sorry, we are not interested in new economic ventures at this time.
697
Corporate dementia, all right?
698
So I wrote them back, and I said, no, no, there's no money.
699
I just, do you want the paper?
700
You can use it.
701
It's public domain.
702
So that was it for Starbucks.
703
What is interesting about this is that you You can do all three of these things at the same time.
704
Sit down, have a nice cup of coffee, read a book in another language.
705
The Fountain of Youth.
706
My request is if any of you are interested in doing research on this, I would like to serve as a subject so I can get free latte.
707
Okay, may I have wild applause and then we'll do questions.
708
Thank you.
709
Thank you, thank you.
710
Alright.
711
Aw, shucks.
712
Oh, I do have a constraint on questions.
713
The first one has to be friendly.
714
After that, you can ask whatever you like.
715
I said that once at a university, three hands went down.
716
and let me introduce to you my son Danny, say hello, the real Dr. Krashen is here,
717
thank you professor here at UGA and the father of my grandchildren yes okay preguntas
718
yes this is just anecdotal but after talking to students to some fellows because they would say,
719
I'm wondering if Jeff is going to be reading, changing, because I'll ask you a student, how much do you read, and that's all the time.
720
But are we thinking text?
721
Is it reading your snippets more than concentrated?
722
Yes.
723
Is the definition of reading changing?
724
I can give you a clear answer.
725
Yes and no. The idea, what we've had through the years is complaints that kids aren't reading these days.
726
By the way, the complaints go back to 1840, that kids don't know anything, et cetera.
727
If you look at my website, which is listed on there, keen free stuff, operators are standing.
728
Anyway, I have an article called Stop Blaming Teenagers, Stop Scolding Teenagers, and I look to see how much teenagers are reading these days compared to 20 years ago,
729
etc., including reading on the computer.
730
First of all, in terms of book reading, they're actually reading more than in 1946.
731
It's about the same, it's very close, it's a little more.
732
The only category that's declined is newspaper reading and magazine reading.
733
And newspaper reading has gone down for everyone because of the Internet.
734
Far fewer people read newspapers today.
735
When you add the Internet reading, and that's blogs and things like this, kids are reading today just about the same as they always have.
736
Then I did a closer look.
737
This is Pew Foundation data.
738
They have it all there.
739
It's easy to look at.
740
About how kids use the Internet
741
and it turns out that using the internet for entertainment which is YouTube and games
742
versus using the internet for social interaction social interaction is much more frequent they use the internet for reading
743
and writing to each other
744
when you factor that in you get a lot of action now people tend to deprecate
745
that to me the jury's out I don't know if it's beneficial I suspect that it is
746
because we know when kids write back and forth Fourth, writing makes you smarter, helps you think, et cetera.
747
Something might be going on here, and it's meaningful and important to them, relevant to their lives.
748
We had a friend of the family who had a website for teenagers, it was Debbie Boxall, and she told me that this was for kids,
749
12, 13, 14 years old girls, nearly everything they posted, this was years ago, had to do with their social interaction with other girls.
750
Susie came to school and she wasn't talking to me today.
751
I wonder what's going on in deep discussions about this stuff.
752
Put it this way.
753
Let's say we discovered through history a group of kids in
754
16th century France who had the habit of writing notes to each other based on their personal lives.
755
We think, oh, what an exciting literate group that must be.
756
And today we give this no respect.
757
Right, so I think kids are reading as much as ever, even though they're reading different things, and I'm very hesitant to condemn computer reading and writing.
758
It might very well be beneficial.
759
It has not really been seriously studied.
760
Good question.
761
Good questions are those I'm prepared to answer. So, yes?
762
Oh, internet slang.
763
Actually, internet slang, since you're my BFF, I can tell you.
764
Internet slang, the only thing that's really been looked at seriously has been text messaging.
765
That's been around a little longer.
766
And the studies, people said, oh gosh, kids aren't going to be able to read and write, they're going to misspell everything and all this stuff.
767
And it turns out, number one, when you look at it, it's conventionalized.
768
You can't just make up your own.
769
You can't just decide this is my abbreviation, you look kind of silly.
770
So you've got to know when to use LOL and all that stuff, because it could mean all these different things.
771
Also, it has no negative effect on writing accuracy.
772
None.
773
And this has been a very popular research topic.
774
I think it's kind of the same attitude people had toward teenage slang in general.
775
They assume it's going to make things worse.
776
So far, it hasn't been shown to be the case.
777
I think it improves communication.
778
There might be something good going on.
779
I don't know.
780
I suspect there is.
781
Oh, by the way, email, comment on email, my hypothesis.
782
Email should be nearly perfect, but not quite.
783
If it's too perfect, it looks insincere.
784
So we have these conventions, right?
785
Yeah, question here.
786
I had a comment or a question about the comment you made earlier in the talk about reading
787
Yes, yes.
788
The reason this has not been widely investigated is that it's very hard to test it speech, because you've got to record it, and it takes a lot of time,
789
and it's easy to test writing.
790
It's right there, and we have computer programs that will help you with it, et cetera.
791
So there have been very few studies, and one of my former students, King Sook Cho, keeps bringing this up every six months.
792
We've got to know, because she did a study of, this is her dissertation study, of women who read Sweet Valley High novels.
793
This is before Twilight, and found a very positive impact, okay?
794
I think Elizabeth should have jumped Jessica a long time ago, okay?
795
That's my opinion, all right?
796
Anyway, they read these teen novels, and everything got better and better and better, and she claims their reactions, their comments, their speech got more fluent,
797
and their friends said their speech got more fluent, but I don't know any study that's used speech as a dependent variable.
798
Let's look to see.
799
So that'll be your research.
800
And please let us know what happens.
801
My suspicion is it's going to have an impact, and it's going to be positive.
802
Of course, you'd have to do some listening as well.
803
So if you take everything else equal, you add reading, it's going to help.
804
That's a prediction.
805
Okay, thanks very much.

이 영상으로 연습하는 방법
- 먼저 말하지 않고 영상을 끝까지 듣고 모르는 단어를 적어 둡니다.
- 0.75배속으로 한 문장씩 섀도잉을 시작하고, 익숙해지면 보통 속도로 돌아갑니다.
- 자신의 목소리를 녹음해 원본과 비교하고, literacy, aloud, comprehension 같은 단어에 특히 주의합니다.
쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법
쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
