The reading rope is a visualization of the simple view published by psychologist Hollis Scarborough in 2001, showing the interactivity of decoding and language comprehension (and their sub-components) in producing fluent reading comprehension. [16]

The active view of reading (AVR) model (May 7, 2021), Nell K. Duke and Kelly B. Cartwright, [170] offers an alternative to the simple view of reading (SVR), and a proposed update to Scarborough's reading rope (SRR). It reflects key insights from scientific research on reading that are not captured in the SVR and SRR.
v. t. e. Autodidacts are self-taught[1] humans who learn a subject -of-study's aboutness through self-study. [2][3] This educative praxis (process) may involve or complement formal education.
