Sound Reading Remediation Strategies via Moodle #543

Mon, Nov 23, 09:30-10:30 JST | Zoom 7
You must log in to view sessions Extensive Reading (ER) College & University Education Research-Oriented Long Presentation

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.
