      I really like this chart that compares traditional reading with online reading. We need to understand that students are growing up with online reading in ways we only experienced as adults. Well…most of us depending on your age!

      I also think this chart is helpful as a guide to compare online to "off line" reading. It should not be one or the other but how they interact.

      I think this is a good way of looking at reading comprehension. These skills should be taught early on so kids/students can be more effective readers in online and in classical 'textbook' reading.

      There is a shift to have students read more informational test as well as compare two texts.  I  think need to teach students to read more and be critical about what they read.

      The chart demonstrates just how much more complex the process of online reading is in contrast with traditional model.  At this juncture in time, in most instances, I believe teachers are learning along with their students.  We can't waste time becoming proficient in these new literacies.  Technology outside the realm of education (at least in our district) is providing digital experiences for our charges at a much faster pace than the classroom.  We are lagging behind.

      "...readers monitor the meaning they are constructing." on a subconscious level.  The proficient reader, while online, functions on a higher cognitive level assessing, sorting, and synthesizing the multifaceted information provided during this 'higher level' reading.  This chart compares and contrast the traditional with the digital quite well.

    I was particularly intrigued by the Internet Reciprocal Teaching. Not that i am looking to more on my plate as a technology teacher than I already have~but this seemed like a very systematic approach to teaching students online reading comprehension skills that will be invaluable to them as technology continues to broaden. Not that these skills are not ones that we don't already address but this seems to go even deeper.

       I am concerned about students using technology devices and no one is teaching student about  eyes strain.
  • Eye strain refers to ocular fatigue, eye discomfort and headaches associated from intensive use of the eyes. Common causes include: glare on the computer screen poor visual correction (out of date eyeglass prescription) reading small character sizes on the screen poor contrast between text and background on the monitor noticeable screen flicker dry eyes Blurred vision can be caused by normal physiological changes in the eye (i.e. aging or disease). It can also be caused by constant focusing on objects within 12" of the eyes, which often occurs when reading in low light. Dry and irritated eyes occur when there is insufficient fluid in the eyes to keep them moist. Eyes are kept moist and refreshed by a normal blink reflex which is present from birth. Blink rates vary with different activities and can become slower when concentrating. Eyes can become red and itchy. Common causes include:
