How Pocket PCs Affect Reading Comprehension
| Division: | Earth & Environmental Sciences / None | | Category: | Junior | | Region: | Chatham-Kent | | City: | Bothwell, ON | | School: | Good Shepherd C.S. | | Abstract: | In my project “How Do Pocket PCs Affect Reading Comprehension?” I tested if Pocket PCs affected learning in a classroom verses reading on paper. I tested a classroom using Pocket PCs by having them read three different stories; at their reading level on three different days then they answered questions. I reached the conclusion that Pocket PCs do have a positive affect on reading comprehension. |
