CIDR authors, Sue Walker and Alison Black, and colleagues from the School of Arts at University of Hasselt, Belgium, and information design consultancy Text Matters have co-authored a chapter in a new publication Learning to Read in a Digital World, edited by Mirit Barzillai, Jenny Thomson, Sascha Schroeder and Paul van den Broek. The book isone of many outcomes of the EU funded COST network e-Read, in which CIDR has been a participant for the last three years. Our chapter focuses on design to support beginner readers but the book covers wide-ranging topics from learning to read to reading to learn.
