Abstract:

In the age of print, the book has been considered the criterial medium of communication. Western children have been taught to read books in culturally specific ways. For example, reading education as a field of academic enquiry has been at times based on the premise that print is the predominant medium for carrying author messages, and that these messages are relayed through linear organisations of alphabetic print codes in a left-to-right and top-to-bottom orthodoxy. But as the contemporary textual landscape is reshaped in a post-typographic age, it becomes important to recognise that print i

Results indicate that variations in the home environment and children's interactions with print have a significant effect on book and code knowledge and print awareness before school instruction.

Abstract:

Reading habits and attitudes have changed drastically during the past years, especially among children and teenagers. Previous studies and related work focus on academic achievement and the reading itself as ways to turn this development around. Making children more efficient readers does however not seem to influence their motivation to read during their free time. What does influence a child's reading attitude is their home environment, being able to find books they enjoy, practicing collective reading and more accessible book formats.

Abstract:

The thesis is about picture books and how children read them, and is divided into three parts. In part one I identify a striking parallel between certain exemplary contemporary picture books and the tendency within adult fiction known as postmodernism or metafiction. I enlarge upon this analogy and attempt to establish a tentative taxonomy of metafictive picture books. Part one concludes with an account of an early attempt at exploring how young children read such texts, and with the establishing of the core questions of the thesis: i.e. what is the relation of the metafictive picture book to

Abstract:

This thesis examines the role of analogy in the development of reading and spelling. Analogy is defined as using the spelling-sound pattern of one word (e.g. 'beak') to read or spell a word which shares a common orthographic sequence (e.g. 'bean' or 'peak'). Experiment 1 shows that 6-7 year old children can use analogies when required to select the correct spellings of words which are read to them. Experiment 2 shows that children aged 5-7 years can also use analogies to read new words aloud. Experiment 3 shows that analogy is used in the same way by children at three different reading levels

Abstract:

Does voluntary reading matter? While there is much known about the benefits to children who engage in sustained silent reading, commercial reading programs implemented as a result of No Child Left Behind often displace time for children to silently read (NCLB, 2002). An increase in the amount of time children spend with a commercial reading program has meant a decrease in time provided for in-school voluntary reading during the elementary literacy block (Brenner & Hiebert, 2010).
