At the turn of last century Henry Ford mastered the art of the moving assembly line. With it came Model T and cars were now available for the masses. The masses were improved because now they were mobile, there was only one option to choose from.
American Chopper has turned the Ford model on it head. Now assembly lines make many parts, and you can put them together anyway you like. This sets up for you to have exactly what you want.
Readicide states that the elephant in the room is the standardization of test, making reading boarding and shallow. We need to have a standardization of classrooms, but we need to move beyond.
It is time to have reading exactly how students need it and like it. Since each student is different, we will need to have a custom made reading plan for each student.
The standards will be needed to make individual plans work, they will just have to be flexible enough to work for each and even student. Student will then fell they have the custom plan just for them.
