[Helen Boelens <boelen1@ATTGLOBAL.NET>]

> Hi,
> My present research is concerned with the use of reading technology, 
> including Kindles and similar equipment and reading pens. I am very 
> interested in hearing whether or not any of you have experience in using 
> this type of equipment, in the school in general and more specifically in 
> the school library, for remedial teaching and also for increasing reading 
> skills and pleasure.  If so, I would be very happy to learn more.  How 
> many pieces of (specific) equipment to you have?  How is it used?  Do you 
> lend it out to pupils?  etc. etc.  What are the problems?  How is its use 
> funded? Do pupils bring their own Kindles and reading pens to the school 
> (library)? Are there security issues?
>
> I will post a HIT.
>
> There may also be those of you have not used this kind of equipment but 
> have comments about its usage.  These comments are also of interest to me.
