I have been touting the benefits of platforms like @bookcreator.com & @adobeexpress.adobe.com for reading AND (bonus!) creativity for years. #EduSky #TLSky & #Skybrarian friends, see how they can be strategically used for reading fluency in the @edutopia.org article below ⬇️
It can be hard for teachers to make time to listen to each kid read aloud individually, even though that’s key for developing fluency. These tech programs can help. 🖥️

There are so many tech leaders who may have experience with DIGITAL literacy but not MEDIA literacy!
AI LITERACY requires BOTH.
I would love to see more librarians helping lead AI framework crafting & adoptions. They have so much to offer & are so important to the conversation.

Thinking routines like Connect, Extend, Challenge are already useful. But technology provides students additional ways to share their thinking, and even allows them to read and react to their peers' perspectives. 🤝
