Interaction reading
along with electronic books (ebooks) versus paper books are compared, using a
randomly controlled crossover design. Ebooks are designed to encourage interactive
reading styles by adult readers and to highlight text correspondence for child
participants. Twenty-eight children from kindergarten classes were in
low-income communities participating in the study, sharing books with adult
readers. Each child shares the same paper book three times a week and an ebook
three times in the second week, with stories and books presented in a balanced
order. At the end of each child's learning week regarding the understanding of
the story and the literature that appears is assessed by the research officer.
All results are significantly related to knowledge of children's letters.
However, the literacy knowledge that appears most in ebook conditions is
compared to the condition of the printed book, especially for children with
poor letters of knowledge. Therefore, ebooks designed to facilitate a
supportive adult reading strategy can improve literacy reading skills,
especially in children with poorer schooling skills.
