The aim of this study was to explore how the Coding as Another Language (CAL) curriculum, developed by Boston College's DevTech Research Group and utilizing the ScratchJr app, impacted students' computational thinking, coding skills, and reading comprehension. To accomplish this, the research team randomly assigned thirteen schools in a…

Many studies have demonstrated the crucial role of vocabulary in predicting reading performance in general. More recent work has indicated that one particular facet of vocabulary (its depth) is more closely related to language comprehension, especially inferential comprehension. On this basis, we developed a training application to specifically…

Christ, Tanya; Wang, X. Christine; Chiu, Ming Ming; Strekalova-Hughes, Ekaterina – AERA Open, 2019
Given the increasing use of app books with young children, research is needed to inform their selection and design. Although broad guidelines exist, more fine-grained guidance is needed. To address this need, we explored the relations among app books' digital affordances, readers' behaviors with these affordances during both buddy and individual…

Wang, X. Christine; Christ, Tanya; Chiu, Ming Ming; Strekalova-Hughes, Ekaterina – AERA Open, 2019
Interactive app books are increasingly part of young children's literacy ecosystem. However, most previous studies examined buddy reading with traditional print books or CD-ROM books. Little is known about whether and how buddy reading with app books might be related to subsequent individual reading. To address this, informed by multimodal…

Wang, X. Christine; Christ, Tanya; Chiu, Ming Ming – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2018
To understand young children's experience with multimodal digital texts, we investigated how 53 kindergarteners' (ages 5-6) buddy reading behaviors (reading mode selection, sequential/non-sequential reading, hotspot use, use of modalities, use of monitoring) were related to their individual comprehension outcomes (prompted retelling,…

Kim, James S.; Asher, Catherine A.; Burkhauser, Mary; Mesite, Laura; Leyva, Diana – AERA Open, 2019
This study employs a sequential multiple assignment randomized trial (SMART) design to develop an adaptive intervention with personalized print and digital content for kindergarten to Grade 2 children (n = 273). In Stage 1, we ask whether it is better for children to receive an adaptive intervention based on (a) 10 conceptually coherent texts or…
