The Trojan Horse of Compulsory Dyslexia Screening

 This week's episode of What’s Left? Is done in conjunction with Jason Bosch of Argusfest where Alison McDowell joins us in a discussion of the plans in CA to test all (K-2) students for dyslexia.  Brought to you by Boston Consulting Group, the consulting firm that closed 23 Philadelphia Schools in 2013. Compulsory dyslexia screening is a data-grab by neuroscientists and impact investors. It does not direct resources to the children who need them, but instead underpins human capital markets in pre-k and early literacy finance.
