    Abstract

    What is involved in learning how to read well? This lecture explores different levels of literacy. It explains how people learn to read to high levels, and why too many people don't learn to read beyond 4th grade level.

    The lecture is delivered by Distinguished Professor Ingrid Piller as part of the postgraduate unit "Literacies" in Macquarie University's Applied Linguistics program.

    The implications of differential literacy levels for Covid-19-related public service communications are discussed at https://www.languageonthemove.com/doe...
