How education technology can help transform reading for pleasure | Sponsored

When it comes to reading for pleasure, there can be a sense that nothing beats a good, old-fashioned paper book. But does this assumption overlook the benefits that technology can bring to the process?

In this episode, host Zofia Niemtus meets Rachel Revell, associate principal at Oasis Academy Wintringham and senior national curriculum lead at Oasis Community Learning, and Ian Turner, a reading development consultant.

Both guests are big advocates of using smart technology that can track and report on students’ progress, offering a wealth of “actionable data to inform what happens in other parts of the classroom”.
