“I often buy print books only after I've read them in some digital form or other. It's my odd way of keeping the physical presence of the best among multitudes.

“That is what I want our young nascent readers to become: expert, flexible code switchers -- between print and digital mediums now and later between and among the multiple future communication mediums....I conceptualize the initial development of learning to think in each medium as largely separated into distinct domains in the first school years, until a point in time when the particular characteristics of the two mediums are each well developed and internalized. That is an essential point. I want the child to have parallel levels of fluency, if you will, in each medium, just as if he or she were similarly fluent in speaking Spanish and English. In this way the uniqueness of the cognitive processes honed by each medium would be there from the start.” LiteracyMental AgilityPrint Books Vs Ebooks Book:Reader, Come Home: The Reading Brain in a Digital World Source: Reader, Come Home: The Reading Brain in a Digital World
