News: The Doublecross at Brighton Grammar School
I was honoured this week to be invited to Brighton Grammar School to check out a research study by The Crowther Centre to compare the differences and possible benefits of working with digital text/e-books – using Apple iPads – compared to working with a physical book. The thrilling part for me is that they’re using my title, The Doublecross, published by Pearson Education (Rigby), as the featured text.
It was fantastic to see the kids so engaged with the technology and the book. Visit my blog From Hook to Book to read more about the visit and the e-book vs the printed book in the classroom.
