Two Questions To Build Common Understanding of Our Individual Experiences: ,[object Object],[object Object]

Let’s Begin with a You Tube Video

What was it like when the book first appeared? New Literacies?

The Big Idea : The Internet Is A Reading Comprehension and Learning Issue, Not A Technology Issue ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

I . The Internet Is This Generation’s Defining Technology For Reading and Learning

A New Literacies Quiz: With Prizes ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],1.5 billion individuals; 1 out of 5 people in the world!

[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],66% or 2/3 of adolescents! ( Borzekowski, Fobil, & Asante, 2006)

[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],On the Internet! In 2005, students aged 8-18 spent 48 minutes per day reading on the Internet and only 43 minutes per day reading offline. (Kaiser Family Foundation, 2005).

[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Ireland! ( Organization for Economic Development and Cooperation, 2004)

[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Finland!

[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Mexico! Mexico is implementing its eMexico plan right now. See http://www.e-mexico.gob.mx/

[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Japan! ( Bleha, 2005).

[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],0! Not a single state.

[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],0!

How did you do? The rubric ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

What can we conclude? ,[object Object],[object Object]

Current Policies Appear To Increase Online Reading Achievement Gaps

Students in poorer schools are doubly disadvantaged: ,[object Object],[object Object],Current policies may increase achievement gaps

Students in wealthier schools are doubly advantaged: ,[object Object],[object Object],Current policies may increase achievement gaps

The Hidden, Compound Reading Achievement Gap Those who require our support the most with online reading comprehension, those without home access, actually receive our support the least in schools. Current policies may increase achievement gaps

Conversation: Building Common Understanding of Our Individual Experiences What has been your experience with online information use in Utah? How do you think it relates to what we have seen in this section?

II. The Internet requires new literacies -- additional online reading comprehension skills.

Initial Evidence That Online and Offline Reading May Not Be Isomorphic (r=0.19, n = 89, N.S.) Leu, D. Castek, J., Hartman, D., Coiro, J., Henry, L., Kulikowich, J., Lyver, S. (2005). Offline Reading = CT State Reading Test Online Reading Comprehension= ORCA Blog

Additional Evidence: Predicting Online Reading Comprehension Coiro, 2007 The new literacies of online reading comprehension Offline Reading Comp.= CT State Reading Test Online Reading Comprehension = ORCA Quia R 2 Offline Reading Comprehension Additional R 2 Prior Knowledge Additional R 2 Online Reading Comprehension Total R 2 .351* .074 .154* .579*

III. My 15 Best Ideas About How To Teach New Literacies In Classrooms With More Limited Access.

1. “Borrow” good ideas ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

2. View Online Videos of New Literacies in the Classroom

3. Use Starfall.com for early reading development

4. Use Read Write Think at All Levels

5. Use Internet Workshop as An Instructional Model Videos

6. Use ePals (free, student safe email)

7. Include the reading comprehension skills of locating information

9. Help the last become first

10. Explore the potential of Wikipedia

11. Explore the use of a Ning (ning.com)

12. Try Out Ideas from Internet Reciprocal Teaching ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

13. Use Internet Project ,[object Object]

14. Begin a Blog ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

15. Keep a patient heart and help others on their journeys.
