Dr. Goodreader at CDS

Screen Shot 2016-03-10 at 9.48.41 AMIn the last few weeks I’ve given short presentations on Dr. Goodreader to our teachers and our parents.  Here’s a link to the presentation: Dr.G

In the elementary teacher workshop, we used Dr. Goodreader to pinpoint where our understanding broke down when reading some upper level science books. It was a fun and revealing activity. As adults many of us use fix-up strategies instinctively, but we were not taught in such a way that they are internalized and easy to access.

That’s the value in Dr. Goodreader.  It’s not a new program.  It’s not some brilliant new discovery. It’s just a way to teach the brilliant old discoveries in a way that is efficient and effective.
