We know COVID-19 and its associated changes to our work and learning habits caused a marked increase in the use of technology. More surprising, perhaps, is the impact these lockdowns have had on children\u2019s and young people\u2019s self-reported enjoyment of books and the overall positive impact this has made on reading rates.<\/p>\n

A\u00a0recent survey<\/a>\u00a0from the UK, for example, showed children were spending 34.5% more time reading than they were before lockdown. Their perceived enjoyment of reading had increased by 8%.<\/p>\n

This seems logical \u2014 locked down with less to do means more time for other activities. But with the increase in other distractions, especially the digital kind, it\u2019s encouraging to see many young people still gravitate towards reading, given the opportunity.<\/p>\n

In general, most children still read physical books, but the survey showed a small increase in their use of audiobooks and digital devices. Audiobooks were particularly popular with boys and contributed to an overall increase in their interest in reading and writing.<\/p>\n

There is no doubt, however, that digital texts are becoming more commonplace in schools, and there is a growing body of research exploring their influence.\u00a0One such study<\/a>\u00a0showed no direct relationship between how often teachers used digital reading instruction and activities and their students\u2019 actual engagement or reading confidence.<\/p>\n

What the study did show, however, was a direct, negative relationship between how often teachers had their students use computers or tablets for reading activities and how much the students liked reading.<\/p>\n

These findings suggest physical books continue to play a critical role in fostering young children\u2019s love of reading and learning. At a time when technology is clearly influencing reading habits and teaching practices, can we really expect the love of reading to be fostered by sitting alone on a digital device?<\/p>\n

The limitations of eBooks<\/strong><\/h4>\n

In schools and homes we often see eBooks being used to support independent reading. As teachers and parents, we have started to rely on these tools to support our emerging readers. But over-reliance has meant losing the potential for engagement and conversation.<\/p>\n

Studies have shown children\u00a0perform better<\/a>\u00a0when reading with an adult, and this is often a richer experience with a print book than with an eBook.<\/p>\n

Reading when we\u2019re young is still a communal experience. My own seven-year-old is at the age when reading to me at night is a crucial part of his development as a reader. Relying on him to sit on his own and read from his device will never work.<\/p>\n

This is not to deny the usefulness of eBooks. Their adoption in schools has been led by the desire to better support learners. They provide teachers with an\u00a0extensive library<\/a>\u00a0of titles and features designed to entice and motivate.<\/p>\n

These embedded features provide new ways of helping children decode language and also offer vital support for children with\u00a0special needs<\/a>, such as dyslexia and impaired vision.<\/p>\n

The research, however, suggests caution rather than a wholesale adoption of eBooks. Studies have shown the extra features of eBooks, such as pop-ups, animation and sound, can actually distract the learner,\u00a0detracting from the reading experience<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0reducing comprehension<\/a>\u00a0of the text.<\/p>\n

The book as object<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Real books may lack these interactive features but their visual and tactile nature plays a strong role in engaging the reader.<\/p>\n

Because books exist in the same physical space as their readers \u2014 scattered and found objects rather than apps on a screen \u2014 they introduce the\u00a0role of choice<\/a>, one of the big influences on engagement.<\/p>\n

While generally a reluctant reader, my child loves to flick through books and look at the pictures. He might not necessarily read every word, but books such as\u00a0Dog Man<\/a>,\u00a0Captain Underpants<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Bad Guys<\/a>\u00a0have provided a fantastic opportunity to engage him.<\/p>\n

We have even managed to link reading with our children\u2019s favourite online games. Their\u00a0Minecraft<\/a>\u00a0manuals have become valuable resources and are even taken to friends\u2019 houses on play-dates.<\/p>\n

Many of our books are not in the best shape, evidence they are lived with and loved. Second hand shops and school fairs provide a cheap option for adding variety, and libraries are also valuable for supplementing the home shelves.<\/p>\n

Keeping it real<\/strong><\/h4>\n

But cuts to library budgets and collections, such as have been announced recently by\u00a0Wellington Central Library<\/a>, threaten to further undermine the role of the physical book in children\u2019s lives.<\/p>\n

School libraries, too, are often the\u00a0first space to be sacrificed<\/a>\u00a0when budgets and space restrictions tighten. This encourages the uptake of digital books and further reinforces a reliance on technological alternatives.<\/p>\n

Of course, digital technology plays an important role in supporting children to engage and learn, often in\u00a0powerful new ways<\/a>\u00a0that would otherwise be impossible.<\/p>\n

But in our haste to adopt and rely on \u201cdigital solutions\u201d without clear justification or consideration of their effective use, we risk undervaluing the power of objects made from paper and ink.<\/p>\n

As we emerge from a pandemic that has accelerated digital progress, we can\u2019t let these developments obscure the place of real books in real \u2014 as opposed to virtual \u2014 lives.<\/p>\n
