Teachers who want to develop a love of reading in their students need to rethink how reading is defined and incorporate multiple reading modalities #USDEDUC562SU22

Person Struggle w/Digital Proficiency: lack of participation in building & connecting. Student Struggle w/Digital Proficiency: reluctance to problem-solve in their exploration. Both T & Ss can grow through practice & reflection. #USDEDUC562SU22 Megan

Reading on the Internet requires additional comprehension skills than traditional texts. Factors that support online reading comp. include shorter texts, multimedia features, browser tools, flexibility of search engine & keywords #USDEDUC562SU22 researchgate.net/publication/22…

Ss need daily opportunities reading a variety of online materials to become critical thinkers. Using J Taylor Ed: The Center for Depth & Complexity D&C icons help expand Ss thinking & train them to be text critics. How do you support this? Mary Hoffman @kaseyteaches_ #USDEDUC562SU22

Ss need skills to critically evaluate sources of information to be digitally literate. Twitter has helped me find an educational community invested in growing meaningful learning opportunities for Ss #USDEDUC562SU22 Chary S.-Salvador Aly Nichols
