Ep.160Does Teacher Talk Really Matter? What the Evidence Shows with Dr. Yan JiangIn this episode of The Literacy View, we sit down with Dr. Yan Jiang, Postdoctoral Scholar at the Stanford Center on Early Childhood and coauthor of a major meta analysis published in Review of Educational Research.Her study analyzes more than one hundred studies examining the relationship between teachers’ language practices and children’s language development from preschool through third grade.There is growing conversation in education about the role of classroom talk, oral language, and teacher interactions in shaping language development. But what does the research actually show?We take a close look at how researchers approached this question, how teacher language practices are studied across classrooms, and what patterns begin to emerge when the evidence from many studies is examined together.ValueIn this episode we explore• What researchers mean when they talk about teacher language practices• How studies attempt to capture and measure classroom talk• Why the distinction between quantity of talk and quality of interactions matters in research• How large scale meta analyses combine findings across many different studies• What educators should think about when hearing claims about language rich classrooms and oral language instructionThis conversation helps unpack how research in this area is conducted and why interpreting findings about classroom language requires nuance.PromiseIn this episode we promise to take you inside a new meta analysis that examines more than one hundred studies on teacher language practices and children’s language development.Together we unpack how researchers study classroom talk, what they actually mean when they talk about teacher language practices, and why measuring something as complex as classroom interaction is not as straightforward as it might sound.You will walk away with a clearer understanding of how this research was conducted, what kinds of teacher language practices researchers are examining, and how educators should think about claims connecting teacher talk and student language growth..Send us Fan MailSupport the showDonate to support the show so it stays real, research-aligned, and independent.💜https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=88DP4YMVETHFQ🚨 Partner with The Literacy View No BS All Impact🫵 Coaching, PD, Retreats & Events 💜We collaborate with universities,schools, districts, leaders, teachers, and parents. 👉 Get Personalized Coaching That WorksAdvertising, Sponsorships & Affiliates 📢 Put your brand front and center in a fast-growing literacy community. 👉 Start Your Partnership TodayConferences & Summits 🎤 Bring the No BS Literacy View to your event.

ValueIn this episode with Reid Lyon, we go straight to the source of the modern reading research movement. You hear firsthand what the research actually revealed about how children learn to read, where implementation has gone wrong, and why misunderstanding the science continues to create confusion in classrooms.

You walk away with deeper clarity about literacy acquisition and stronger conviction about what matters most.PromiseWe will not water this down.We will not rewrite history.We will not soften the hard truths about research and implementation.We will examine the science.We will confront the misinterpretations.We will connect the evidence to real classroom practice.No spin.No agenda.Just research, accountability, and clarity you can stand on.Kicking off March Madness with the LION OF READING! 🦁The ONETHE ONLYDr. Reid Lyon 🎉🎉🎉🎉This episode is probably the most important one we recorded on The Literacy View! 🥳🥳🥳Please share far and wide!Reid’s LinkedIn Bio-https://www.linkedin.com/in/reid-lyon?utm_source=share_via&utm_content=profile&utm_medium=member_iosSend us Fan MailExclusive To The Literacy View Community 💜$10 OFF researchED NYC 🎉https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/researched-new-york-2026-tickets-1980565800625Support the showDonate to support the show so it stays real, research-aligned, and independent.💜https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=88DP4YMVETHFQ🚨 Partner with The Literacy View No BS All Impact🫵 Coaching, PD, Retreats & Events 💜We collaborate with universities,schools, districts, leaders, teachers, and parents. 👉 Get Personalized Coaching That WorksAdvertising, Sponsorships & Affiliates 📢 Put your brand front and center in a fast-growing literacy community. 👉 Start Your Partnership TodayConferences & Summits 🎤 Bring the No BS Literacy View to your event.
