Why are kids' scores in math and reading falling?vor 3 Tagen1 Std. 09 Min.

We'll take a closer look at an international report that shows that while our kids' academic scores are still strong, they are falling -- especially in reading and math. Education expert Kelly Gallagher-Mackay will tell us why. Also, we'll hear from two people living with dyslexia who have a view on how reading is taught in schools, and a university student has struggled with math her whole life, and believes her phone may be partly to blame. And we'll hear from Canadians who have struggled with math and reading -- and what they think should be done about it.
