Podcasts about digital reading

In a recent article from the folks at Lifeway, I was reminded of the importance of training our kids to use physical paper Bibles rather than depending on our smartphones and other screens. We do know that when we read on a screen, we read differently than we do on the printed page. Screen-reading does not facilitate the kind of line-by-line deep reading that occurs on the printed page. In the article, Tim Pollard from Lifeway offers up some helpful reasons for using a paper Bible. He says it makes the Bible physical and tangible. It minimizes distractions. The text is prevented from changing. A paper Bible doesn't run out of battery. It reinforces the sanctity of the Scriptures. Memory is enhanced. Readers can see how the canon of Scripture is organized and how the books of the Bible are structured, which provides context for what we are reading. In addition, it facilitates focus and note-taking. Here at CPYU we encourage you and your kids to use a physical, ink-on-paper Bible!

In the past, you've heard me mention the results of initial research regarding the difference between reading text on a printed page, versus reading text on a screen. Researchers found that there is a fundamental difference between the two, as eye scans show that those who read on the printed page read line by line, and those who read on a screen tend to skip over text while looking for keywords. A new study looked at screen and print reading differences among children ages ten to twelve, that three year period which is most critical in reading development. This is the time when students shift from learning to read, to reading to learn. The initial findings indicate a greater depth of processing when reading from the printed page. Deeper comprehension and deeper learning occur. Since more and more kids are reading off screens, this could indicate the declines in text comprehension skills of thirteen year olds. Parents, don't throw out the books. And most of all, keep your kids reading printed Bibles. 

Rebecca Silverman is an expert in how humans learn to read. It's a complex process, she says. First we must connect letters and sounds to decode words in texts. Researchers know a lot about the decoding process and how to teach it. But, beyond that, we must also comprehend what the words in texts are conveying. Comprehension is complex, and researchers know much less about the comprehension process and how to teach it, Silverman tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Episode Reference Links: Rebecca Silverman's Research Lab: Language to Literacy LabConnect With Us:Episode Transcripts >>> The Future of Everything WebsiteConnect with Russ >>> Threads or Twitter/XConnect with School of Engineering >>> Twitter/XChapters:(00:00:00) Introduction to Reading Challenges Host Russ Altman introduces guest Rebecca Sliverman and her research into the complexities of reading.(00:03:53) Decoding vs. Comprehension The breakdown of reading into decoding and comprehension, the challenges associated with each, and the lifelong process of improving these skills.(00:07:18) Variability in Learning to Read  How children learn to read, including the impacts of linguistic comprehension, memory and socio-emotional contexts.(00:09:55) Cross-Cultural Differences in Reading The variability of reading acquisition across languages and cultures, highlighting the components of reading that vary in their developmental trajectory.(00:11:35) Research Challenges and Interventions in Reading Current research on the challenges of reading, particularly in identifying and supporting children with difficulties.(00:15:03) The Role of Technology in Reading The impact of technology on reading, the differences between reading on paper and digital formats, and the potential of educational technology in literacy development.(00:20:38) Importance of Family in Reading DevelopmentHow families play a role in early reading, with emphasis on storytelling and culturally relevant practices. (00:23:52) Challenges for Teachers in Literacy EducationResponsibilities of teachers in teaching literacy and the need for comprehensive support and training for teachers.(00:27:44) Future Directions and the Potential of AI Future research on AI in literacy education, and the importance of human oversight in technological interventions.(00:29:29) Conclusion  Connect With Us:Episode Transcripts >>> The Future of Everything WebsiteConnect with Russ >>> Threads or Twitter/XConnect with School of Engineering >>> Twitter/X

In this episode, I delve into the concept of overcoming overwhelm and mastering productivity. Mark Struczewski (The Mister Productivity Podcast Host), a seasoned productivity coach, shares his insights and practical tips for leading a more productive and less overwhelmed life.Mark's path to becoming a productivity coach began in his structured childhood home. With parents instilling discipline and structure, he was taught the importance of completing chores and homework before engaging in leisure activities like watching his favourite TV show, MASH. This upbringing laid the foundation for his natural inclination towards productivity.Thanks for reading Superpowers School! Subscribe to support my work.The Battle Against OverwhelmMark believes overwhelm is a self-created problem exacerbated by gadgets and distractions. He reminisces about a simpler time before the advent of smartphones and the internet, highlighting how these technologies, while beneficial, have contributed significantly to our current state of constant overwhelm.Practical Tips for Overcoming Distractions* Exercise Self-Control with Gadgets: Challenge yourself to watch an entire TV program without reaching for your phone. This exercise helps you become more aware of your dependence on devices.* Make Conscious Choices: Decide to take control over your devices instead of letting them control you. This could mean turning off your phone or utilizing focus modes to limit distractions.* Notification Cleanse: Go through your apps and turn off unnecessary notifications. Customize your notification settings to serve you better, not distract you.* Disable Vibration Mode: This prevents the constant checking of your phone every time you feel a buzz, which often leads to unnecessary distractions.* Physical Separation from Devices: If your phone is a major distraction, keep it out of sight when focusing on a task.* Use of Analog Productivity Tools: Mark recommends using a simple pad of paper for jotting down tasks and interruptions, helping to maintain focus on the current task.Multitasking and Work OverwhelmMark emphasizes the fallacy of multitasking, suggesting that it's more effective to focus on one task at a time. To manage work overwhelm, he advises against jumping between tasks. Instead, he suggests bringing a task to a sensible stopping point before shifting focus.Embracing the Journey of Learning and GrowthMark underscores the importance of loving what you do. He believes happiness and productivity go hand in hand. As for staying relevant and informed, he advocates for reading as a daily non-negotiable activity. Final Thoughts and ResourcesTo combat overwhelm and boost productivity, Mark recommends resources like "Tiny Habits" by B.J. Fogg and the UGMONK analog productivity system. He also highlights ReadWise, a service that revisits Kindle highlights.In conclusion, Mark's story and advice offer a practical roadmap to reclaiming control over our lives from the clutches of overwhelm and distraction. By embracing discipline, making conscious choices, and focusing on what truly brings joy, we can navigate the complexities of the modern world more effectively and productively.Chapters:[00:00:00] Introduction: The Shrinking Attention Span [00:00:31] The Age of Infobesity and Overwhelm [00:01:07] Introducing the Guest: Mark Struczewski [00:01:45] The Importance of Human Skills in an Automated World [00:02:02] Understanding the Origins of Our Names [00:03:31] The Superpower of Overcoming Overwhelm [00:04:00] Mark's Journey into Productivity [00:04:31] The Impact of Structure and Discipline [00:06:49] The Influence of Technology on Overwhelm [00:08:56] The Challenge of Watching TV without Distractions [00:10:21] The Problem of Multitasking and Overwhelm at Work [00:10:32] Strategies to Overcome Overwhelm [00:21:01] The Role of Research in Understanding Overwhelm [00:22:51] Introduction to Cal Newport and His Work [00:23:08] Choosing to Opt-Out of Social Media Overwhelm [00:23:25] The Dangers of Endless Scroll Social Media [00:23:44] The Future of Technology and Its Impact on Our Lives [00:24:17] The Joy of Learning and the Problem with Shortcuts [00:24:34] The Love for Physical Books and the Shift to Digital Reading [00:25:21] The Role of Audible Books in Learning [00:27:25] The Importance of Reading and Continuous Learning [00:28:16] The Importance of Reading in Becoming a Good Conversationalist [00:28:51] The Power of Deep Work [00:30:16] The Joy of Being a Solopreneur [00:30:28] Advice for Those Starting Their Career [00:30:37] The Role of Happiness in Productivity [00:32:20] The Joy of Podcasting [00:38:09] The Role of Social Media in Productivity [00:40:08] The Love for Football and Its Impact on Productivity [00:42:59] Conclusion and Final Thoughts Mark Struczewski (The Mister Productivity Podcast Host)Hey!

Last year, Talib sat down with award-winning author Alexander Kielland Krag and Gyldendal Executive Vice President Tom Christian Gotschalksen to discuss “This Stays Between Us,” which might be the first long-form story natively written for Instagram Stories.

Wes Hill starts his recent article in Christianity Today magazine with this sentence: “As I prepare to begin my tenth year as a seminary professor, I'm going to begin the biblical capstone class I'll be teaching by recommending that my students consider taking up a habit they're likely unfamiliar with: bringing an actual, physical, printed-and bound Bible to class.” Kudos to Dr. Hill for taking this step. The presence of smartphones and Bible apps, which are not bad things in and of themselves, has led more and more believers to never carry or read an actual paper Bible. Without a physical bible we can easily lose our sense of the Genesis to Revelation narrative of redemption. We are limited in our ability to understand context. It is more difficult to cross-reference passages. We don't read as deeply on the screen. And, we are more easily distracted. With Christmas coming, why not set each of your kids up with the gift a good, old-fashioned, physical Bible?

Today’s youngest students are learning to read in a world of screens, both at home and in many classrooms. And it’s a world that can be a game-changer for PK-2 teachers. This episode of “Your Edtech Questions” explores what educators need to know when teaching young learners to read in classrooms that include digital devices. Lisa Guernsey, director of the Learning Technologies Project and deputy director of Education Policy at New America, and the co-author of Tap, Click, Read: Growing Readers in a World of Screens, dives into the research on early readers and screentime. Discussed are issues like the young brain and comprehension with technology, high tech and high touch reading, the value in acts of creation, tool evaluation and the importance of home-school connections.

By reading on our devices, we’re losing abilities it took us thousands of years to develop. That’s because reading from a screen – a computer, a tablet, a phone – lends itself to skimming. This lack of deep reading alters brain development and erodes essential skills, like critical thinking and empathy, according to literacy expert, Maryanne Wolf. Author of the book, Reader Come Home: The Reading Brain in a Digital World, Maryanne is the Director of the Center for Dyslexia, Diverse Learners and Social Justice at UCLA and past professor of Citizenship and Public Service at Tufts University. She is Co-Founder of Curious Learning, a global literacy project, and she works with the Dyslexia Center at the UCSF School of Medicine. Maryanne is not opposed to digital reading. Instead, she’s on a mission to help us develop what she calls a "bi-literate brain," that is, a brain suited for digital and analog reading, and she explains how we can teach young people to gain these important skills.
