Abstract

iRead is an EU Project involving literacy games in Spanish, German, Greek, and English for L1 and L2 acquisition. Content is selected dynamically from a large database using linguistic rules based on the player profile. The teacher can view pupils' progress based on automated game sequences or assign games manually. This project strives to understand how teaching with new technology is incorporated into the classroom. The authors interviewed both teachers and children about their points of view and compared their answers at the end of the project. Results indicate that pupils had a much deeper understanding of their learning than was apparent from the teachers' point of view.
