The reading wars are over. The learning wars are just beginning
Rebel educators have issued a call to arms against “one-size-fits-all-nonsense” of explicit learning in the nation’s classrooms.
A prominent educator warns that a new conflict is emerging in Australian schools over teaching methodologies, following the resolution of the long-standing "reading wars." Professor Joanna Barbousas of La Trobe University suggests that while the debate over phonics versus whole language has subsided, a fresh clash is brewing regarding "evidence-based" teaching across all subjects. This new debate pits proponents of mandated, explicit teaching methods against teachers and academics who are reportedly resisting this approach.
This potential shift in educational philosophy could significantly impact how all subjects are taught to Australian schoolchildren, potentially causing disruption if not managed carefully.
