In a World of Immersive Behaviors, Why Not Reading Immersion to Strengthen Educational Skills
Hall, Michelle S.
Distance Learning, v19 n2 p101-104 2022
In a world of immersive behaviors, why not immerse students in words, vocabulary, and language to improve their reading skills. Reading immersion will improve the learners' reading skills and comprehension across the curriculum in all subjects. Many strategies could be pulled from various immersion techniques used in other areas to employ reading immersion. A combination of techniques used in the trending art and classic language immersions is symbolic of John Dewey's philosophy of marrying traditional education and progressive education and using the best qualities of the two to enhance and build upon the learners' educational experience and further the learner's knowledge and education. As the world changes and we become more of a blended culture of inclusion and not so much a separated society, sticking to our own kind, segregating haves and have-nots, and separating highly intellectual students from struggling students are factors in our presentation of educational materials that have to adjust to the new inclusive educational environment. Reading immersion is that change.
