Reading on Screen Research Report

Eve Bearne, Chris Clark, Annette Johnson, Penny Manford, Marilyn Mottram and Helen Wolstencroft with Rosemary Anderson, Nikki Ga

This research was prompted by current concerns about changing reading habits as a result of new technologies, and about how the skills needed for reading on screen can be included in the reading repertoire. With support from QCA the Reading on Screen research examined on-screen reading in different curriculum areas with pupils aged 5-16 in four different areas. The report includes information about children’s out-of-school screen reading experiences; detailed observations and interviews with pupils of different ages; examples of classroom practice in teaching on-screen reading and a discussion of some of the implications for future classroom practice and assessment.
