  • Summary

  • If you’re reading this sentence with ease, consider yourself privileged. Why? Language development is a complex cognitive process that involves distinct, yet overlapping, domains. Most of it develops relatively effortlessly and without instruction. But there’s a crucial component that needs to be explicitly taught, and it's one that most of us take for granted - literacy. It’s no secret that reading and writing are among the most essential skills for success in the modern world, and the implications of falling behind in these abilities extend well beyond the classroom.

    In this episode, Aidan & Emily chat with Dr. Bernard Grela about all things literacy - how it develops, how it's taught, and what happens when it’s compromised, especially in the case of dyslexia, a language disorder marked by a cluster of distinct symptoms.
