e-books need mentors
DESCRIPTION
Lisa Guernsey As books become adorned with interactive features, and as digital media and games of all kinds are now available at our fingertips, young children are going to need a little guidance. Building a good e-book experience means thinking not only about the technology and the content, but also supporting the adults and older children who are helping children seek, learn and explore in the digital age.TRANSCRIPT

Time is ripe for e-book guidance
Parents are even reading e-books with their very young children. Survey results of 1200 middle
class parents with child age 2 to 6 (JGCC, 2012).
But they need training on the use of questioning techniques with the
new technology (Vanderbilt study using videos of narrated Scholastic books, 2010).
