Coiro--Podcast
http://www.voiceofliteracy.org/posts/44978

This 10-minute talk opened another page of online reading. Coiro doesn't care about the devices, but more online or offline for middle schoolers. It is pretty attractive if we could get rid of the influences of devices on the process of reading. Personally, I still believe that devices do matter but it may depend on the age of the readers. My assumption is the older, the less impact of the reading devices.

Two points here Coiro mentioned here grabbed my attention:1) online reading is different from offline reading. This nonlinear reading needs skills in searching, locating information in addition to critical thinking; 2) Skilled offline readers may not be skilled online readers due to different strategies used in the process. If this second one is true, then the teaching and learning of reading class need to be moderated in a way to adapt to this argument.

Coiro & Dobler (2007)

    This one is not so scary as it appears with more than 40 pages. Indeed, this is a pretty good research paper to follow suit as a qualitative study.
    First of all, this one was published in 2007, which was pretty early to focus on internet reading for adolescents. Besides, the comprehension focus was on informational texts rather than narratives. I think it is interesting and natural to have skilled readers as the sample. Same as when we study with ELL readers, to get an understanding of what's happening for those skilled readers then we could generate some outcomes.
    The theoretical framework, participants selection, coding (Appendix C) are all something i could learn. And that is why I put this article down here so that I know there is one ready for me to follow suit. Another thing I think this article is worth to revisit is the structure of the whole article. For a qualitative one, this can be a classic.
