- 59. Imagine you have an internship with a state legislator interested in literacy issues. She has asked you to give a short presentation summarizing what the research says about youth and reading. Using data from these two studies, how would you summarize their findings? Which findings would you point out are contradictory or problematic? She really likes bullet points. If you were to summarize these findings in four or five bullet points, what would they say?
