TL;DR: In this paper, a meta-analysis examines the inconsistent findings across experimental studies that compared children's learning outcomes with digital and paper books, and quantitatively reviewed 39 studies reported in 30 articles (n = 1,812 children).
Abstract: This meta-analysis examines the inconsistent findings across experimental studies that compared children’s learning outcomes with digital and paper books. We quantitatively reviewed 39 studies reported in 30 articles (n = 1,812 children) and compared children’s story comprehension and vocabulary learning in relation to medium (reading on paper versus on-screen), design enhancements in digital books, the presence of a dictionary, and adult support for children aged between 1 and 8 years. The comparison of digital versus paper books that only differed by digitization showed lower comprehension scores for digital books. Adults’ mediation during print books’ reading was more effective than the enhancements in digital books read by children independently. However, with story-congruent enhancements, digital books outperformed paper books. An embedded dictionary had no or negative effect on children’s story comprehension but positively affected children’s vocabulary learning. Findings are discussed in relation to the cognitive load theory and practical design implications.

TL;DR: The authors provided a systematic review of literature relating to both "teacher education" and "diverse learners" to identify knowledge claims regarding the way this "problem" and possible "solutions" should be framed.
Abstract: Teachers consistently identify working with “diverse learners” as challenging. This raises questions about how teacher educators conceptualize and enact preparation of teachers for heterogeneous populations. This article provides a systematic review of literature relating to both “teacher education” and “diverse learners,” to identify knowledge claims regarding the way this “problem” and possible “solutions” should be framed. Analyzing 209 peer-reviewed journal articles (2009–2019), the article identifies groups most frequently described as diverse, three qualitatively different clusters of claims regarding how teachers can be prepared for diversity, and factors identified as constraining preparation. Analysis reveals a literature broad in focus—referencing many groups—but shallow in depth. The majority describe strategies for teaching about or catering to diversity with only few considering teaching for diversity. There is also limited engagement with specialist literature relating to concepts such as gender or race and little attention to teacher educators’ own knowledge. The article concludes with implications for teacher educators, arguing for enhanced critical epistemic reflexivity.

TL;DR: In this article, a meta-analysis was conducted to investigate the effects of family literacy programs on the emergent literacy skills of children from low socioeconomic status families (0-6) and establish which program, sample, study, and measurement characteristics moderate program effects.
Abstract: The aim of this meta-analysis was to investigate effects of family literacy programs on the emergent literacy skills of children from low socioeconomic
status families (0–6) and to establish which program, sample, study, and measurement characteristics moderate program effects. Outcomes of 48 (quasi-)
experimental studies covering 42 different programs revealed a medium average effect of Cohen’s d = 0.50 on immediate posttests and a marginal average
effect of Cohen’s d = 0.16 on follow-up measures. Together, effects of different
moderator variables indicate that children benefit from targeted programs
that focus on a limited set of activities and skills and that are restricted to one
(training) context. Additionally, we found larger effects in experimental studies and when researcher-developed tests were used. Our outcomes not only
provide guidelines for program developers but also call for more longitudinal
research that examines how positive short-term changes as a consequence of
program participation can be sustained over time.
