Speaker

Description

With social media and short attention spans, young people increasingly consume information in bite-sized pieces rather than engaging with longer texts, leading to shallower reading. This session looks at turning reading into a daily habit instead of a chore. Designed by language experts, BOOKR features 1,700 animated stories aligned to CEFR, integrating voice recognition, recommended reading lists, AI-generated assessment tools to promote engagement and comprehension, and dedicated management suite. Four-month whole class trial for attendees.
