"Genres for young fiction, and in particular YA fiction (young adult, also known as youth or juvenile fiction), span most of those covered by adult fiction. What distinguishes them from adult fiction is that the main characters are usually children or teens dealing with teen issues."

"Nearly one in five Australian adults performs poorly in literacy, and this is due to giving up on reading for pleasure as teenagers. People who have basic literacy skills, but struggle with literacy, are known as aliterate. So how can we get teenagers to read for pleasure? What impact is technology having on literacy in adolescents? Dr Margaret Merga from Edith Cowan University has done extensive research in the area and she spoke to Geoff on Drive. "

Jennie Bales on 22 Aug 18

Since digital reading is still in its infancy, for many adults it's hard to know exactly what the issues are-what's happening to a young brain when reading online? Should kids be reading more paper books, and why? Do other digital activities, like video games and social media apps, affect kids' ability to reach deep understanding when reading longer content, like books? And how do today's kids learn to toggle between paper and the screen?

"Do you have a sufficient number of nonfiction books in your classroom or school library to meet the reading needs of students? There's an increasing amount of evidence that students not only enjoy nonfiction but are actively seeking it. There's also some indication that elementary students in particular may prefer nonfiction material by a wide margin, compared with adults. Yet, classroom collections and school libraries often don't reflect this reality."
