iPads vs. paper books for reading to children or how to integrate iPads with paper books and libraries for a fuller experience
10/11/2014
The role of reading in a child's development is crucial for the child's future, with parents reading to children an activity to be encouraged and fostered by society in every way. How can parents use electronic technology of iPads to shift some of the television time to the wider selection of books and programs of educational value for children? Training children to make wise and useful choices of educational value from the wide proliferating selection on the internet is itself an exercize that is needed, just as the exercize of showing children how to make wise and useful eating choices is needed.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
