Thanks to the ever-informed Liz Ditz, I’ve learned that there has been an on-line debate between Nancy Creech, who is identified as a whole-language teacher, and Ken De Rosa of D-Ed Reckoning, an advocate for improving instruction using evidence and logic. The action is taking place at Edspresso, Ryan Boots’ blog for the Alliance School Choice. Here’s a direct link to the debate. There’s lots of good back-and-forth, and even more space given to comments from readers. Note that there are also comments at Mr. De Rosa’s blog entry announcing the event.
