Evaluating the effect of exposure to digital text on early literacy development
This project will focus on the need to update understanding of young children’s reading development in light of their increased exposure to digital texts on different-sized devices. It will explore whether learning to read text on a tablet involves different skills from learning to read from traditional print books. “Certainly, as an adult, reading from digital devices can feel like a very different experience to our experience of reading from paper,” writes Jenny Thomson, senior lecturer in the department of human communication sciences at the University of Sheffield, in the Leverhulme Trust’s newsletter. “However, our experiences as individuals who first learned to read on paper will be quite different to children whose first exposure to print may be across books, tablets, computers and smartphones.” This project will explore whether traditional notions of early predictors for reading success need updating in the digital era.
