The Implementation Truth

Same program. One study: NULL effect on student reading. Another study: significant positive effects.

What changed?

Not the curriculum. The implementation.

The EBLI (Evidence-Based Literacy Instruction) case is the clearest illustration of a pattern that runs through the entire dyslexia intervention literature: the what of a program matters less than the how of its delivery.

Practitioner training intensity. Supervisory infrastructure. Dose. Learner-program match. Fidelity monitoring.

These moderators are doing the heavy lifting — and they are routinely invisible in the marketing brochures that families and school districts use to choose programs.

If you're a school administrator: your adoption decision is incomplete without an implementation-infrastructure plan.

If you're a parent: ask about practitioner training and supervision before you ask about program brand.

If you're a researcher: we need active-comparator trials and explicit fidelity reporting. Now.
