Enabling Support Foundation

Remember when you had a "tip of tongue"? You knew everything about something....except the name. Think of the feeling of frustration. That is what a dyslexic feels on a chronic basis. The child knows what the word means, but cannot say it. Simple solution: they do not read aloud, but may narrate what they read.

The pandemic has led to a distance learning model for education, but we are only just exploring. The Enabling Support Foundation has integrated resources from the Cloud into one form of distance learning. Visit, www.education-21.org/book-review and you will be at a paged display of books indexed by genre. Specify type of book, hit apply, and you will be shown links to all books in that category. When you select a book, you will be shown a summary, and links to read the boo...k on line or download it for later. The books were created by Book Dash (www.bookdash.org) for African children, and are available to anyone at no charge. The child writes a book report that can be evaluated by anyone. This is an example of project-based learning, an excellent approach for distance learning. The project can be completed with minimal technology, a smartphone. See more
