Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

Researchers in Artificial Intelligence have discovered a great deal about reading while striving to teach computers to read. This information, however, has been of small benefit in our schools since AI researchers usually have little contact with educators or researchers involved with teaching children to read.

Now, a respected AI expert examines the parallels of these two areas of study. In this clear, practical volume, he demonstrates, step by step, how to use the concepts of Artificial Intelligence for more effective reading instruction.
