Sound Reading Remediation Strategies via Moodle

College & University Education
Mon, Nov 23, 09:30-10:30 JST

We will highlight challenges encountered in extensive reading (ER) and offer efficient means of remediation using Moodle and more. Specifically, how and why cohorts of beginning to low-intermediate readers engaging in ER for credit are not all reading when using Mreader; how teaching word prominence better addresses the literacy needs of weak readers; and how Moodle modules enable reading remediation to be automated into an efficient, scalable, consistently replicable experience designed to promote reading remediation.
