Dawn Bowden AM: Right That is fine In terms of reading and literacy skills we still remain quite low in the Programme for International Student Assessment ratings for reading and I know there is a particular concern about the impact on boys in that regard What do you think are the most pressing priorities that face them around reading and literacy ?
Meilyr Rowlands: I think literacy has been and still is and still needs to be a top priority I mean literacy clearly is something that underpins the rest of education so it really does need to be a top priority I think it has been a high priority but we need to continue prioritising it We have seen some improvements over the years For example we have given a lot of attention to writing over the years and making sure that children get the opportunity to write in an extended way not just short sentences but having the opportunity to have extended writing and there is some evidence that that now is beginning to have an effect But almost ironically the same sort of issue is true of reading So it is not just reading small little snippets—we need to encourage children to have a love for reading and read whole books So I gave a little bit of attention to that in the annual report—that that needs attention I think the other thing I would emphasise is that this is not just for the foundation phase it is not just for very young children—it is really important at key stage 2 and in secondary school One of the things we have been worried about and I think there was some reflection of this in PISA is that there are strengths in reading in Wales So PISA for example said that children in Wales are very good at comparing lots of little snippets but what they are saying and they are saying this themselves is that the love of books is decreasing and the number of children who read regularly whole books So I think there is something there for teachers to set and model a good example to show their own interest in reading to encourage children to read themselves | He believed literacy still needed to be the top priority, because it was something that underpinned the rest of education. Yet work was still needed to be done to continue prioritizing it. |

Grad C: w do we want to get going beyond more which is sort of the
Professor D: Well OK so let s let s take let s I I think your suggestion is good which is we will do a b a batch OK And Fey How long is it going to be till you have ten subjects ? Couple days ? Or thr f a A week ? Or I do not I do not have a feel for th
Undergrad E: I can I mean I s I think can probably schedule ten people whenever
Professor D: Well it s it s up to you I mean I j I e We do not have any huge time pressure It s just when you have t
Undergrad E: How long will it be ? I I would say maybe two weeks
Professor D: Oh OK So let s do this Let s plan next Monday OK to have a review of what we have so far No we will not have the transcriptions but what we should be able to do and I do not know if Fey if you will have time to do this but it would be great if you could not transcribe it all but pick out some stuff I mean we could lis just sit here and listen to it all Are you going to have the audio on the web site ? OK
Grad C: Until we reach the gigabyte thing and David Johnson s ki kills me And we are going to put it on the web site
Professor D: Oh we could get I mean you can buy another disk for two hundred dollars right ? I mean it s it s not like OK So we will take care of David Johnson
Grad C: No he he he has been solving all our problems or is wonderful
Professor D: Alright So we will buy a disk But anyway so If you if you can think of a way to point us to th to interesting things sort of as you are doing this or or something make your make notes or something that that this is you know something worth looking at And other than that I guess we will just have to listen although I guess it s only ten minutes each right ? Roughly
Undergrad E: Well I guess I m not sure how long it s actually going to take
Grad C: The reading task is a lot shorter That was cut by fifty percent And the reading nobody s interested in that except for the speech people
Professor D: Right No we do not care about that at all
Grad C: So It s actually like five minutes dialogue
Professor D: I b My guess is it s going to be ten People I understand but people people you know
Undergrad E: It feels like a long time
Grad C: It feels like forever when you are doing it but then it turns out to be three minutes and forty five seconds
Professor D: Could be OK I was thinking people would you know hesitate and Whatever Whatever it is we will we will deal with it
Grad C: it s not And it s fun
Professor D: OK so that will be that will be on on the web page That s great But anyway so I think it s a good idea to start with the sort of relatively straight forward res just response system And then if we want to get them to start doing multiple step planning with a whole bunch of things and then organize them an tell them which things are near each other and you know any of that stuff You know `` Which things would you like to do Tuesday morning ? `` So I th that seems pretty straight forward
Undergrad E: But were you saying that
Grad C: I need those back by the way
Professor D: I m sorry Fey what ?
Undergrad E: That w maybe one thing we should do is go through this list and sort of select things that are categories and then o offer only one member of that category ?
Professor D: That s what I was suggesting for the first round
Grad B: So rather than having zoo and castle
Undergrad E: And then I mean they could be alternate versions of the same If you wanted data on different constructions
Professor D: They could but i but i tha eh they c but but
Undergrad E: Like one person gets the version with the zoo as a choice and the other person gets the
Professor D: You could but i but I I I think in the short run
Grad C: And no th the per the person do not get it I mean this is why we did it because when we gave them just three tasks for w part A and three tasks for part B a
Undergrad E: Well no they could still choose They just would not be able to choose both zoo and say touring the castle
Grad C: Exactly This is limiting the choices but Right OK sorry But I I think this approach will very well work but the person was able to look at it and say `` OK This is what I would actually do `` OK we got to we got to disallow traveling to zoos and castles at the same time sort of
Undergrad E: I mean there they are significantly different but
Grad C: But no they are I mean they are sort of this is where tour becomes you know tourists maybe a bit different and these are just places where you you enter much like here
Professor D: in fact if y if y if you use the right verb for each in common like at you know `` attend a theater symphony or opera `` is is a group and `` tour the university castle or zoo `` all of these d do have this kind of `` tour `` aspect about the way you would go to them And the movie theater is probably also e is a `` attend `` et cetera So it may turn out to be not so many different kinds of things and then what one would expect is that that the sentence types would their responses would tend to be grouped according to the kind of activity you would expect
PhD F: But I mean i it seem that there is a difference between going to see something and things like `` exchange money `` or `` dine out ``
Grad C: this is where th the function stuff is definitely different and the getting information or g stuff OK But this is open So since people going to still pick something we we are not going to get any significant amount of redundancy And for reasons we do not want it really in that sense And we would be ultimately more interested in getting all the possible ways of people asking oh for different things with or with a computer And so if you can think of any other sort of high level tasks a tourist may do just always just m mail them to us and we will sneak them into the collection We are not going to do much statistical stuff with it
Professor D: We do not have enough
Grad C: No But it seems like since we since we are getting towards subject fifty subjects and if we can keep it up to a sort of five four ish per week rate we may even reach the one hundred before Fey t takes off to Chicago
Undergrad E: That means that one hundred people have to be interested
Professor D: Well these are all f people off campus s from campus so far So we we do not know how many we can get next door at the shelter for example for ten bucks probably quite a few So alright so let s go let s go back then to the the chart with all the decisions and stuff and see how we are doing Do do people think that you know this is is going to cover what we need or should we be thinking about more ?
Grad C: in terms of decision nodes ? I mean Go there is is a yes or no I m also interested in th in this `` property `` line here so if you look at sorry look at that timing was I have these three Do we need a final differentiation there ? Now later on the same tour sometimes on the next tour
Grad B: What s this idea of `` next tour `` ? I mean
Grad C: It s sort of next day so you are doing something now and you have planned to do these three four things and you can do something immediately you could sort of tag it on to that tour or you can say this is something I would do s I want to do sometime l in my life basically
Grad B: OK OK So so this tour is sort of just like th the idea of current s round of of touristness or whatever
Professor D: probably between stops back at the hotel I mean if you if if you wanted precise about it you know | There are already 30 subjects lined up and more are expected to be recruited off campus.
