Ready booklet of best practices
Thoughtfully crafted to share best solutions for hybrid reading
A full-colour manual that curates 30 outstanding youth-reading activities . Every practice follows the same one-page template—goals, step-by-step instructions, resources, expected outcomes—so that a teacher, librarian or youth worker can put it into action immediately. The booklet:
blends analogue and digital techniques, showing how social-media challenges, apps or mini-games can reinforce paper-based reading;
is mapped to a Competence & Skills Matrix that highlights motivation, critical thinking and self-organisation skills, helping staff choose the right activity for a specific group;
follows accessibility guidelines (high-contrast layout, dyslexia-friendly fonts) and will be translated into all partner languages;
is released under an open licence so schools, libraries and NGOs across Europe can adapt, remix and extend it.
TRAINING CONTENT
Built to strenghten the youth worker capacities in future of reading
A concise, four-module professional-development programme that helps teachers, librarians and youth workers blend print and digital reading for teens (13-17):
Digital Deep Reading & Critical Literacy – strategies for sustaining attention on- and offline, and fact-checking in an age of information overload.
Motivating Teen Readers – ready-to-use games, challenges and peer activities that turn reading into a social, rewarding habit.
Storytelling & Social Media – using short-form video, podcasts and comics to connect everyday digital creativity with literature.
Bibliotherapy & Well-being – guided use of texts to foster reflection, resilience and inclusion.
Each module comes with quick assessment tools, multilingual/accessible materials and is mirrored on an open online platform for bite-sized follow-up learning. Together they give educators a practical toolkit to spark and sustain a reading culture, wherever young people meet.
