“I know this discussion is likely to be unpopular among people who have embraced the SoR. The main response I’ve gotten to talks in which I’ve raised some of these issues is that the comments were rude, even mean-spirited, and not what the audience wanted to hear. That is itself symptomatic of a problem. My concerns are not about loyalty to a movement or affinity to an author or product. They are not about whose team a person is on. They are not about the people involved though they are about their work.” – Dr. Mark Seidenberg

We invited Dr. Tiffany Peltier to join us on The Literacy View to discuss Mark Seidenberg’s

article.

Tiffany had concerns about the “science,” and nobody seemed to care. As a matter of fact, she was ostracized.
Tiffany Peltier brings over 12 years of experience in the education field, serving as an
elementary teacher in three different states, acting as an instructional coach to elementary teachers, and teaching undergraduate pre-service teachers within special education, learning, sciences, and literacy coursework at Texas A&M and the University of Oklahoma. She has also provided PL sessions for various schools and districts around early reading instruction and learning disabilities, been contracted with a state department of education to develop and provide Dyslexia Awareness training to educators across the state, and has provided PL opportunities to thousands of teachers, SLPs, school psychologists, and administration
throughout the US as a National LETRS Independent Contractor. She has most recently worked as a Research Scientist specializing in teacher training, early literacy, and reading difficulties like dyslexia at the Collaborative for Student Growth at NWEA and is now the Lead Learning and Delivery Specialist in Literacy at NWEA and a Teacher Educator at the University of Georgia in the Dyslexia Master’s Program.
