1 thought on “After Krashen”
After Krashen–what a concept?! Before I’d read any of his work I’d heard of his work through early childhood educators. His work on reading and language acquistion is probably the most logical I’ve ever seen.
As I read over the panelists’ topics I was put off by the edu-ese. You are right, it seems to be an exclusive club of sorts. It reminds me of the topics chosen by archaeologists and ethnographers when they discourse on indigenious people to which they don’t really have much of a relationship with. They’ve only looked at the materials but not talked with the People. Or I’ve watched them ask questions of Elders and then dismiss the answers as uneducated or superstitious. It is sad to see.
I am glad there will be those in the audience to call into question their proof.
