Using eReaders in the classroom- a Dissertation

[Kate Eileen Byrnes]

I am teacher in Charlotte, North Carolina.  I am getting my masters degree in Library Science and I am currently starting my dissertation project.  For this project, I would like to interview teachers or library media specialists who have used eReaders with students.  I initially was just reaching out to individuals in my immediate area so that I could do face to face interviews.  Unfortunately, as there are not many people out there who are currently using this technology in schools I have not been able to find all of the participants I need.  I am opening up my search to educators across the country and I will be doing phone interviews.  If there is anyone in this group who has used eReaders with their students and would be willing to be interviewed for my project, please let me know.  Thanks!
