| dc.description | The goal of this paper is to investigate the use of digital reading environments as a teaching tool within the secondary classroom. The use of a digital reading environment in a secondary classroom has the potential to support both struggling readers and readers who excel. While this new learning tool is beneficial for increasing literacy skills and reading comprehension it also has the potential to bring life to inquiry based learning. This paper looks closely at how digital learning environments can enhance reading comprehension, vocabulary, and critical literacy skills. | en_US |
