35. In a Flattened World: Opportunities
Expand but Competition Increases
How do economic units increase productivity?
Flatten The Organization into Problem Solving Teams
Team Team Team Team Team
Greater Intellectual Capital Use = Greater Productivity
These teams take full advantage 1. Define problems
of their intellectual capital to 2. Locate information
the extent their education 3. Critically evaluate information
system has prepared them for 4. Synthesize and solve problems
this. 5. Communicate solutions
36. Which tool has been used by
economic units to increase productivity
and compete?
The Internet
Team Team Team Team Team
Online Reading Comprehension Recent productivity gains are due to
1. Define problems using the Internet to share
2. Locate information information, communicate, and solve
3. Evaluate information problems (van Ark, Inklaar, &
4. Synthesize and solve problems McGuckin, 2003; Friedman, 2005;
5. Communicate solutions Matteucci, O’Mahony, Robinson, &
Zwick, 2005).
37. Implications For Education?
Problem-based, online learning essential
Effective online information and
communication skills required.
38. III.
The Internet Is This Generation’s Defining
Technology For Reading and Learning
44. Our Students Have Changed
Since 2005, students aged 8-18 in the U.S. have
been spending more time reading online per day
than reading offline: 48 minutes per day vs. 43
minutes per day. (Kaiser Family Foundation, 2005).
In Accra, Ghana:
66% of 15-18 year olds report having gone
online previously; (Borzekowski, Fobil, &
Asante, 2006).
45. Public Policies:
Nations Respond
Japan has broadband in nearly every
home that is 16 times faster than the
broadband in US homes for $22 per
month. (Bleha, 2005)
This generation’s defining technology for reading.
46. • Mexico has e-Mexico, a policy designed
to provide every citizen and every school
with an Internet connection (Ludlow,
2006).
This generation’s defining technology for reading.
47. • Finland provides every teacher with 5
weeks of release-time, professional
development with integrating the Internet
into classroom instruction.
48. International Assessment
Initiatives
2009 PISA International Assessment of
Reading – Digital Literacies
Programme for the International
Assessment of Adult Competencies
(PIAAC) – Problem Solving in
Technologically Rich Environments
This generation’s defining technology for reading.
50. State Assessment Policies in Reading
Not a single state in the U.S.
measures...
This generation’s defining technology for reading.
51. State Assessment Policies in Reading
Not a single state in the U.S.
measures...
...students’ ability to read search engine
results during state reading
assessments.
This generation’s defining technology for reading.
52. State Assessment Policies in Reading
Not a single state in the U.S.
measures...
...students’ ability to read search engine
results during state reading
assessments.
...students’ ability to critically evaluate
information that is found online to
determine its reliability.
This generation’s defining technology for reading.
53. Not a single state measures...
...students’ ability to compose clear and
effective email messages in their state
writing assessment.
all students to use a word processor on
their state writing assessment.*
*See Russell & Plati, 1999; 2000; 2001. They report
effect sizes of .57 – 1.25 for word processor use on MCAS.
See also Russell & Tao, 2004 who report 19% more 4th grade
students classified as “Needs Improvement” would move up to
the “Proficient” performance level with word processors.
54. Instruction: The Rich Get Richer
and The Poor Get Poorer
Neglecting research into online reading
comprehension perpetuates public policies that
help the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.
63% of children from households earning more than
$75,000 annually reported that they used the Internet
at school, but only 36% of children from households
earning less than $15,000 annually (Lazarus, Wainer,
and Lipper, 2005).
Leu, McVerry, O’Byrne, Zawilinski,
Castek, J., Hartman, D.K. (2009).
55. How We Define The Issue Determines
Classroom Integration
A technology issue A literacy issue
Technology standards are Technology standards
separated from subject area become integrated within
standards subject area standards
Online learning is separated Online learning is integrated
from subject areas into each subject area;
Specialists are responsible Every classroom teacher is
responsible
Online information and
communication skills are Subject area assessments
assessed separately from and online information skills
subject area knowledge. are assessed together.
58. What Can We
Conclude?
The Internet is this generation’s
defining technology for reading.
Some states and nations place their
students, and societies, at risk by
continued inaction or poorly informed
public policies.
59. V. The Common Core State
Standards
“To be ready for college, workforce training, and life in
a technological society, students need the ability to
gather, comprehend, evaluate, synthesize, and
report on information and ideas, to conduct
original research in order to answer questions or
solve problems, and to analyze and create a high
volume and extensive range of print and nonprint texts
in media forms old and new.” Online

instruction in 1-1 laptop classrooms.
The new literacies of online reading comprehension
69. IRT: Phase I
Teacher-led Basic Skills
Teacher-led demonstrations of basic
Internet use skills and cooperative learning
strategies
Explicit modeling by teacher
Largely whole class instruction
Mini-lessons as transition to Phase II
70. IRT: Phase II
Collaborative modeling
of online reading strategies
Students presented with information
problems to solve.
Work in small groups to solve those
problems.
Exchange strategies as they do so.
Debrief at the end of the lesson.
Initially: Locate and Critical evaluation
Later: Synthesis and Communicate.
72. IRT: Phase III
Inquiry
Initially, within the class.
Then, with others around the world.

87. What Can We Do?
Advocate for greater professional
development.
Work with library media specialists to
define the issue for your school as a
reading and learning issue.
Support teachers who lead the way.
Work for greater access in ways that
balance child safety with learning.
53
88. What Can We Do?
Implement a 30 minute policy for reviewing
blocked sites.
Continue to work for faster, easier access.
Implement email, wikis, blogs, nings, and
other communication tools in the
elementary grades.

The cruelest irony of No Child Left Behind may be that the students who most need to be prepared at school for an online age of information are precisely those who are being prepared the least.\n
