Rezensionen

"The book aims to examine the 'taken for granted' processes of learning to read, and these processes mainly appear to be the assessment and benchmarking systems. In this sense, Scherer explicitly shows how learning to read in school is an unspoken social, cultural and political process that makes a significant impact on children." (Kimberly Safford, Children & Society, Vol. 33 (2), 2019)
