Reading and the Information Processing Model: Why Penguins Continue to Mishear What I Say

July 7, 2026·16 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

Reading is a thinking process, not a responding-to-stimuli process or a sounding-out-words process. And since cognitive psychology studies human thinking; it makes good sense to examine the reading process from a cognitive or thinking perspective using the information processing model.• Purpose statement: The reader will develop a basic understanding of reading from a cognitive perspective.• Behavioral objective: After reading this chapter, the reader will be able to explain why penguins continue to insist the Dr. Johnson doesn’t believe in direct and explicit phonics instruction.https://thereadinginstructionshow.substack.com/p/reading-and-the-information-processing
