Story-time & Screen-time



This past Sunday, October 12, The New York Times published a story that precisely mirrors our classmate Camila's essay on the false promises of "interactive" reading for children. Like Camila's essay (although not as persuasive in its conclusions), the NYT article punctures a lot of myths about so-called interactivity. A parent (or surrogate human) will always be more interactive than a computer (at least in the near to middle future).

Here is a link to the story: E-Reading's Oversold Promises
