How Can We Take Advantage of Reading–Writing Relationships?

Teacher question: Everyone says reading and writing are connected. But our school focuses on only reading. We have a reading program (we don’t have a writing program). We test the students three times a year in reading, but never in writing. Writing isn’t even on our report card, though I guess it is part of Language Arts. What should we be doing with writing? Shanahan's response: You came to the right place. I think your school is making a big mistake not giving sufficient attention to writing.

Here's what's been added or changed in RadioWave with the release of v1.2.0:

  • Improved compatibility with PHP up to v7.4. Additionally, any PHP notices that may have appeared in the frontend or backend have now been resolved.
  • References to IE have now been entirely removed (this includes both HTML and CSS code).
  • Massive CSS cleanups & updates. Browser specific syntax (e.g. -moz-*, -webkit-* etc.) has also been removed. Invalid CSS has been fixed (3 rules related to CSS background gradients).
  • Updated all JS libs to their latest compatible versions.
  • The RadioWave Generic Player module (installed separately) has also been updated to v2.1, which now includes an option to autoplay your custom radio streams (among other minor improvements). You can get it for free at: https://github.com/joomlaworks/radiowave-generic-player
