Empowering Literacy On-Demand with Interactive Multimedia

The project develops innovative delivery of beginning literacy lessons.
While learning to read and write stories of their own choosing, early learners have many urgent questions. Many of these questions have answers that can be easily explained using a multimedia demonstration. Children can access the answers independently, on demand, when the answers are in a digital repository with straightforward navigation.

In conjunction with outside educators and software developers, this project develops engaging multimedia explanations for Words, Sentences, and Texts, and tests the content with early learners, parents, and teachers.
