Slimme Nieuwslezer getest tijdens de week van de alfabetisering
Tijdens de Week van de Alfabetisering wordt de de eerste versie van de Slimme Nieuwslezer voor Laaggeletterden getest in de Openbare Bibliotheek Amsterdam.
Dit innovatieve digitale product, dat automatisch nieuwsberichten op maat selecteert en deze berichten verrijkt met hulpbronnen en opdrachten, is daarmee nu ook door lezers met een lager taalniveau te gebruiken. De Slimme Nieuwslezer voor Laaggeletterden is ontwikkeld door Edia in samenwerking met experts op het gebied van laaggeletterdheid, de OBA, en cursisten van het Kenniscentrum Alfabetisering Nederlandssprekenden (KAN) in Amsterdam.
De nieuwslezer is mede mogelijk gemaakt door De Vereniging van Openbare Bibliotheken (VOB) en is daarom landelijk, binnen de muren van alle openbare bibliotheken, gratis te gebruiken in de strijd tegen laaggeletterdheid.
