International Literacy Association Newsletter Weekly Project: Effective Literacy Website #6

 



The International children’s Digital Library Foundation (ICDL) website was created to support the world’s children in becoming effective members of their local and global community while respecting and tolerating the diverse cultures, languages, and ideas throughout our world.  ICDL drives to make the best in children's literature available online free of charge.  One key factor that makes a website very useful to teachers is if they were free.  Most public schools do not have the extra money to pay for interactive materials so free materials is very important to teachers.  Another thing to note about this site is that it is a government funded website so any content in the site has been reviewed and filtered. 

Even though the primary audiences for the ICDL are children from three to thirteen years old, children’s caregivers and educators as well as academics working in the field of children’s literature are also targeted since it is these people that also effect the literacy of a child.
This website is great for both students and educator because it has a large collection of interactive books and their all free.  I chose this website because of its goals in helping a diverse audience accepting all cultures.
