Despite scientific advances that have informed our understanding of reading acquisition and development, a profound gap exists between empirical findings and the implementation of evidence‐based practices in the assessment and instruction of reading in school settings. The debate regarding the practical implications of the science of reading (SOR) and its implementation in authentic school settings is palpable. As researchers, practitioners, policymakers, parents, and other educational stakeholders engage in this latest version of the debate on how best to teach young learners to read, a familiar, almost cyclical, narrative has emerged. As an interdisciplinary group of researchers who study diverse facets of reading development, assessment, and instruction, it is troubling how little the current and past debates have focused on processes that could ensure that the instructional experience students receive in classrooms is informed by existing science. Specifically, the authors contend that the persistent gap between the SOR and its school‐based implementation exists because the field has yet to invest in the appropriate methodologies and processes to develop an effective model of translational science. The authors argue not only that much can be learned from previous iterations of this debate but also that advances in translational science provide a framework for how to address the SOR debate differently and more productively in the current climate. Thus, the authors propose a road map for translational science for the SOR, acknowledging the breadth of work done in translational science in other fields and recognizing and describing the added complexities in the emerging field of translational science in educational settings.

转化科学：阅读科学的路线图

尽管科学的进步使我们对阅读习得和发展有了了解，但在学校环境下的阅读评估和教学中，经验发现与实施循证实践之间仍然存在巨大差距。关于阅读科学（SOR）的实际含义及其在真实学校环境中的实施的争论是显而易见的。随着研究人员，从业人员，政策制定者，父母和其他教育利益相关者参与最新版本的辩论，即如何最好地教给青少年学习者阅读，出现了一种熟悉的，几乎是周期性的叙述。作为跨学科研究人员小组，他们研究阅读发展，评估和指导的各个方面，令人不安的是，当前和过去的辩论都集中在可以确保学生在课堂上获得的教学经验被现有科学所启发的过程上。特别是，作者认为，SOR与基于学校的实施之间存在持续的差距，因为该领域尚未投资适当的方法和流程来开发有效的翻译科学模型。作者认为，不仅可以从该辩论的先前版本中学到很多东西，而且翻译科学的进步为如何在当前环境下以不同方式和更有效地解决SOR辩论提供了框架。因此，作者提出了SOR的转化科学路线图，
