“…These differences have consequences for the access, comprehension, and uses of text in a wide variety of situations, ranging from education to work to personal and civic purposes. It is therefore crucial to understand and assess the new forms of reading literacy that come with the practice of reading on digital displays (Naumann, 2008;Coiro, 2009;McEneaney et al, 2009;Vázquez-Cano, Mengual-Andrés, & Roig-Vila, 2015).Therefore, digital reading is involved in a great variety of social and personal activities and situations; for this reason, digital texts need a change in methodological approaches in order to improve the competence of digital reading of students (Rouet, 2006;Kennedy et al, 2008;Kemp, 2011;Coe & Oakhill, 2011). Recent studies have identifi ed how profi ciently students navigate is a strong predictor of their learning and performance when reading digital texts (Naumann & Salmerón, 2016;Hahnel et al, 2016).…”

Abstract. Digital technologies have changed the ways texts are produced and displayed, and those changes have a profound impact on how students read. In Spain, the results in digital reading competence are below the OECD average, which proves to be a handicap for Spanish students. This article presents a case study in which we investigate, through a quantitative methodology, teachers' perceptions on the main constraints for the effective development of a teaching methodology to improve digital reading competence of secondary students in Spain. The findings show how learning processes based on digital reading are still underdeveloped and teaching staff in a large majority expresses lack of preparation, training, and resources available in the school for the effective development of a teaching that encourages successful digital reading proficiency of students. It is important for governments, teachers, and students to meet these challenges as they affect almost every aspect of our daily routines.

“…In any case hypermedia is a format that is becoming more and more prevalent as technology develops (Borsook, 1992). Recent research points to ways hypermedia can be better implemented, and methods for limiting its pitfalls and highlight its strengths are emerging (Strobel, 2008;McEneaney 2009;McNamara, 2005;Lawless, 2007). McNamara (2005) started by identifying the possible relationships between a readers prior knowledge and the cohesion of a hypertext.…”

“…He discusses the how to help low-knowledge and domain novice readers get the most out of hypermedia and the fact that high-knowledge readers and domain experts don't require as much cohesion. Later, it was shown that prompts or pre-reading activities could be used to change this prior-knowledge and stance of a reader to allow for a greater knowledge transfer, a deeper understanding and more rewarding experience of a give hypertext (Lawless, 2007;McEneaney, 2009).…”

“…Despite the initial research, recent studies have suggested not only that hypertext improves higher-level learning, but that understanding certain reader attributes such as stance, motivation and prior knowledge may drastically influence the success of hypermedia (Jacobson & Spiro, 1995;Tremayne, 2003;McEneaney, 2009;Salmeron, 2005;McNamara & Shapiro, 2005;Lawless, 2007;Lowrey, 2009). These reader attributes and many other distinctions must be explored before casting hypermedia to the side.…”

“…It has been shown that prereading activities can increase a reader's prior knowledge and help with nonlinear engagement (Lawless, 2007). Others have shown that a reader's stance, the purpose or general orientation of a reader, is also very important and can be influenced by prompts (McEneaney, 2009). Reader characteristics such as these can drastically change a reader's experience and learning with CFT formats and hypermedia; consequently, a lot of research seems to be moving in this direction.…”

A hypermedia design for both high and low knowledge readers

The purpose of this case study is to examine possibilities for improving upon hypermedia design in regards to readers and their varied levels of prior knowledge. By creating a hypermedia website that looks at the development of rock climbing at Coopers Rock State Forest, I will explore the possibility of using prompts intended to help prepare readers with low levels of subject (rock climbing) knowledge to understand and make sense of the content. However, at the same time, it is important to allow readers with high levels of subject knowledge to bypass these prompts because of their ability to limit a high knowledge reader's tendency to engage in active processing. This project will provide a model to act as a means of comparison and critique for future hypermedia designs.

Since the physical laboratory work in secondary schools is rapidly becoming of such increasing importance, its value being recognized by all, and since Harvard University has taken the lead in outlining a definite preparatory course, the importance of the contemplated revision is obvious.

PATERNAL AUTHORITY AND ITS DECLINE. By C. P. SEEDEN. North American Review, November, I895. THE decline of paternal authority is widespread, but nowhere has there been so great an abandonment of control as in America. In compensation there is, however, a growing belief that "Le pouvoir paternal est Plutot un devoir qu'un pouvoir." In recognition of this principle the cost and care of bringing up a child properly have become so great that there is an increasing sentiment in favor of small families, not only on the part of those who pride themselves upon their enlightened selfishness, but among conscientious people who realize the difficulties of bringing up a child in the way he should go. Save in agricultural communities, children seldom render any efficient service to their parents, and the young person adequately fitted for a profession, in most cases, has cost his parents and institutions of learning not less than fifteen or twenty thousand dollars. This excessive tax upon the head of a household and upon the state suggests the possibility of mistaken zeal in inducing young people to abandon the field of manual labor. and to devise a course of laboratory work which shall meet with the approval of everyone concerned, this committee desires the hearty cooperation of all who are in any way interested in this most important work.
