The Daily Hampshire (MA) Gazette (7/29) reports, "Students at Center/Pepin elementary school will be piloting new reading technology this fall," noting that Amherst-based Pioneer Valley Books, which "provides books for children learning to read," is developing a book app for iPads, and "will be delivering six iPads to the school preloaded with the 'Who Can Read?' book reader application. Each book is illustrated and features audio so that a student can choose to hear it read aloud or turn the audio off as they develop their own reading skills. The book reader, which came out in May, also features a trademark animated owl that helps students follow instructions."
