Learner profiles are changing, tooWe are not the same as our parents, just like our children are not like us. Many: are digital natives – those ‘born digital’ (vs. ‘digital immigrants’) live more online than in playgrounds tend to multi-task more than we did and are better at visual-
reasoning have shorter attention spans feel a need to break down the space between the real world and
the digital world are in constant communication with others

Some terms:E-pub = often refers to a digital reading format – the
most common type
MOBI = (mobipocket eBook file) a format used by Kindle’s reader
E-books = electronic books i.e. those sold for digital readers such as Kindle, Kobo, iPad, Galaxy, Nook etc.
E-readers = reading devices

Why eRead? Instantaneous downloads – 24 hrs. a day No trees are killed (but millions of pixels are) Multi-skill – audio and reading (visual) Enhanced value items and features (illustrations, graphic
helpers, interactive resources, video, instant translations, audio, embedded games and learning environments etc. etc.)
Save space and easy to carry Can back them up Searchable, and have bookmarks, highlights Some apps are social – leaving messages for other readers Cheaper – fewer shipping and other costs – no wastage Font sizes can be changed for those with poor eyesight Modifiable – books are static. New editions can be made in
seconds Potential for individualized adaptive learning – apps adapt
to user feedback

Why not eRead? Books are organic and recyclable High entry price. E-pubs are cheaper but devices cost Tech worries – battery, theft, updates, Hard to implement class-wide:
1. Not all students have the same devices (or any of them)2. Hard to assess individual gains , achievement
We already read too many screens – eye strain, screens are low resolution – bad for the eyes
Huge increase in poor eyesight in Asia in the last 5 years (90% of school leavers are myopic – 20% in the UK) – reading from screens?
Some evidence readers read more slowly from screens
