The Big Ideas
1. The World is Flat: Changes in a global economy require concomitant changes in education
2. The Internet is this generation’s defining technology for learning and reading.
3. Recent research: The Internet requires new literacies -- additional online reading comprehension skills.
4. Recent research: Internet Reciprocal Teaching: Teaching online reading comprehension in subject areas.
5. Current research at the New Literacies Research Lab6. Public policies may actually increase reading
achievement gaps. We need to change these.

I. The World Is Flat: Changes In A Global Economy Require Changes In Education
The “General Motors” Model of Economic Management
1. Command and control2. Lower levels of
education required.3. Wasted intellectual
capital4. Highly inefficient5. Lower productivity6. Little innovation7. Little need for higher
level and creative thinking.
Wasted intellectual capital
![Page 7: New Orleans Keynote](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/5550a510b4c90590208b4eb9/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
In a Flattened World: Opportunities Expand butCompetition Increases
How do economic units increase productivity? Flatten The Organization into Problem Solving Teams
1. Define problems2. Locate information3. Critically evaluate information4. Synthesize and solve problems5. Communicate solutions
These teams take full advantage of their intellectual capital to the extent their education system has prepared them for this.
Greater Intellectual Capital Use = Greater Productivity
![Page 8: New Orleans Keynote](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/5550a510b4c90590208b4eb9/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Which tool has been used by economic units to increase productivity and compete?
1. Define problems2. Locate information3. Critically evaluate information4. Synthesize and solve problems5. Communicate solutions
The Internet
Recent productivity gains are due to using the Internet to share information, communicate, and solve problems (van Ark, Inklaar, & McGuckin, 2003; Friedman, 2005; Matteucci, O’Mahony, Robinson, & Zwick, 2005).
![Page 9: New Orleans Keynote](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/5550a510b4c90590208b4eb9/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Implications For Education?
Problem based learning essential Effective online information and
communication skills required. Internet literacies have become central. In short: fundamental change.

The Workplace Has Changed
Recent productivity gains are due to using the Internet to share information, communicate, and solve problems (van Ark, Inklaar, & McGuckin, 2003; Friedman, 2005; Matteucci, O’Mahony, Robinson, & Zwick, 2005).
This generation’s defining technology for reading.

Our Students Have Changed
Students aged 8-18 in the U.S. spend more time reading online per day than reading offline: 48 minutes per day vs. 43 minutes per day. (Kaiser Family Foundation, 2005).
In Accra, Ghana: 66% of 15-18 year olds report having gone
online previously; (Borzekowski, Fobil, & Asante, 2006).
![Page 15: New Orleans Keynote](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/5550a510b4c90590208b4eb9/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
The World Has Changed: Public Policies To Prepare Citizens for Work in an Information
Economy
• Finland provided all teachers with 5 weeks of paid, release time professional development at integrating the Internet into the classroom, using a national training model (Svedlin, Personal Correspondence).
This generation’s defining technology for reading.
![Page 16: New Orleans Keynote](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/5550a510b4c90590208b4eb9/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Japan has broadband in nearly every home that is 16 times faster than the broadband in US homes for $22 per month. (Bleha, 2005)
This generation’s defining technology for reading.

OECD Assessment Initiatives
2009 PISA International Assessment of Reading – Digital Literacies
Programme for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies (PIAAC) – Problem Solving in Technologically Rich Evironments
This generation’s defining technology for reading.

The U.S. situation.Not a single state in the U.S. measures...
...students’ ability to read search engine results during state reading assessments.
...students’ ability to critically evaluate information that is found online to determine its reliability.
This generation’s defining technology for reading.
![Page 20: New Orleans Keynote](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/5550a510b4c90590208b4eb9/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Not a single state measures...
...students’ ability to compose clear and effective email messages in their state writing assessment.
all students to use a word processor on their state writing assessment.*
*See Russell & Plati, 1999; 2000; 2001. They report effect sizes of .57 – 1.25 for word processor use on MCAS. See also Russell & Tao, 2004 who report 19% more 4th gradestudents classified as “Needs Improvement” would move up to the “Proficient” performance level with word processors.

National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP)
Recently, NAEP made a deliberate decision to exclude online reading comprehension from the 2009 NAEP reading framework in the U.S.
This generation’s defining technology for reading.

What Can We Conclude?
The Internet is this generation’s defining technology for reading.
Some states and nations place their students at risk by continued inaction or poorly informed public policies.

III. The Internet Requires Additional Online Reading Comprehension and Learning
Skills
![Page 24: New Orleans Keynote](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/5550a510b4c90590208b4eb9/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
The new literacies of online reading comprehension
“… the Internet…requires readers to have novel literacy skills, and little is known about how to analyze or teach those skills.” (RAND Reading Research Study Group, 2002. p. 4).

Online and Offline Reading Comprehension May Not Be Isomorphic
(r=0.19, n = 89, N.S.)
Leu, D. Castek, J., Hartman, D., Coiro, J., Henry, L., Kulikowich, J., Lyver, S. (2005).
Online ReadingComprehension = ORCA Blog
Offline Reading = Connecticut Mastery Test (CMT)of Reading Comprehension

The TICA Project:
Funded by the Institute of Education Sciences, U.S. Department of Education
Goals: Identify online reading comprehension skills and
strategies through verbal protocol analysis of think alouds.
Develop pilot model of Internet Reciprocal Teaching Conduct an initial experiment, randomization at the
school and teacher level, of IRT at the 7th grade level in urban and rural poor districts (CT and SC).

The New Literacies Of Online Reading Comprehension:
Read to identify important questions; Read to locate information; Read to critically evaluate the usefulness
of that information; Read to synthesize information to answer
those questions; and Read to communicate the answers to
others.

Locating Information:The “click and look” strategy
In our entire population, of those who obtained a page of search engine results, approximately 50% did not read them.
“Click and Look” strategies used

Critical evaluation
100% percent (42 out of 42), thought the site. Save the Pacific Northwest Tree Octopus, was reliable;
56% reported it to be “very reliable.” Data from five students were missing.

IV. A Model To Teach Online Reading Comprehension in 1-1 Classrooms: Internet Reciprocal Teaching (IRT)
![Page 40: New Orleans Keynote](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/5550a510b4c90590208b4eb9/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
IRT: Phase ITeacher-led Basic Skills
Teacher-led demonstrations of basic Internet use skills and cooperative learning strategies
Explicit modeling by teacher Largely whole class instruction Mini-lessons as transition to Phase II
![Page 41: New Orleans Keynote](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/5550a510b4c90590208b4eb9/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
IRT: Phase IICollaborative modeling of online reading strategies
Students presented with information problems to solve.
Work in small groups to solve those problems.
Exchange strategies as they do so. Debrief at the end of the lesson. Initially: locating and critically evaluating Later: Synthesis and communicating.
![Page 42: New Orleans Keynote](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/5550a510b4c90590208b4eb9/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)

VI. Current Policies May Increase
Online Reading Achievement Gaps
![Page 52: New Orleans Keynote](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/5550a510b4c90590208b4eb9/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
The Hidden, Compound Reading Achievement Gap
Those who require our support the most with online reading comprehension, those without home access, actually receive our support the least in schools.
Current policies may increase achievement gaps
![Page 53: New Orleans Keynote](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/5550a510b4c90590208b4eb9/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
A Second Problem for School Leaders:Defining the Problem Correctly
A literacy issue Technology standards are
separated from subject area standards
Online learning is separated from subject areas
Specialists are responsible Online information and
communication skills are assessed separately from subject area knowledge.
Technology standards become integrated within subject area standards
Online learning is integrated into each subject area;
Every classroom teacher is responsible
Subject area assessments and online information skills are assessed together.
A technology issue
