LET'S SPARK A LOVE OF READING!
|
|
The À GO, on lit! (AGOL) campaign is back! Until November 26, dive into a host of new content with our ambassadors Kevin Raphael, Claudie Mercier, Justin Morissette, and Nabil Queen! Together, let’s show teens and young adults—especially non-readers—that reading is anything but boring! |
|
Inspiring reading corners, contests, events, and AGOL book activities… the possibilities are endless!
Make À GO, on lit! a fun and engaging tool for reaching young people: create activities, including French as a Second Language (FSL) activities, in classrooms, in libraries, or your own communities. We can’t wait to see your amazing initiatives and, once again this year, watch reading shine among teens!

Workplace Literacy: The Project is Underway! |
|
It’s official! R3USSIR and the Maison régionale de l’industrie are launching the project “Lire, compter, cliquer : les clés de l’implantation d’un système en entreprise”, a literacy initiative designed for workplaces integrating digital or technological transformation systems to enhance their performance.
Developed in collaboration with multiple intersectoral and inter-level partners, the project aims to equip stakeholders who work with companies implementing new systems, in order to raise awareness about the importance of strengthening digital literacy skills.
Targeted instructional content and communication tools will also be created to support the development of digital literacy skills in the workplace.
An innovative and complementary initiative, the project will run until September 2027.

Impact of an Interactive Reading Program on Maintaining Learning for 6- to 8-Year-Old Students in Vulnerable Situations During the Summer
|
|
To counter the effects of the “summer slide” and support students’ academic progress, a research team from the Université du Québec à Montréal developed the project “Lecture interactive avec moi” (LIAM). This program, focused on interactive reading, aimed to prevent learning loss among 6- to 8-year-old children in vulnerable situations.
The study showed that LIAM’s interactive reading and literacy activities help students maintain their reading skills over the summer. The results also highlight the influence of the environment, with the family context being particularly effective in supporting literacy learning, especially in vocabulary development.
