+250 million children will not reach their cognitive milestones by the age of five, falling permanently behind before entering a classroom. By the end of primary school, 53% of children in low and middle-income countries will not be able to read and understand a simple story. A lack of access to high-quality textbooks and supplementary reading materials in local languages, coupled with inadequate teaching approaches, are key elements behind this global learning crisis.
Worldreader supports the distance learning and reading needs of students with full-color, culturally relevant and curriculum aligned books, available in multiple languages, with an embedded children’s English Dictionary. Our solutions provide a dashboard with key data insights, like indicators of time spent reading and reading engagement, that can be used to enhance learning outcomes. The digital library can be curated to support instruction in a variety of settings, from classrooms to homes.
