Can Educational Media and Technology Really Promote Early Reading? | Eclectic Technology | Scoop.it
How can we best use educational media and technology to promote early reading?

The Joan Ganz Cooney Center and the New American Foundation have reviewed the Campaign for Grade-Level Reading ("a collaborative effort by dozens of partners from philantropy, government, business, and the non-profit and voluntary sectors to mobilize measureable community action to help close the dismal gaps in reading by third grade"), specifically one area - "the possibility that well-deployed technology could be a 'game changer' in moving the literacy needle."

This short post provides an overview of their initial findings as well as links to a variety of resources, including a SlideShare "Early literacy and technology - scanning the landscape."  To go directly to the SlideShare: http://www.slideshare.net/cooneycenter/early-literacy-and-technology-a-scan-of-the-landscape.
