Abstract

Nowadays, student difficulties in reading are even more evident than before. Hence, the importance of implementing, since the beginning of schooling, strategy-based interventions such as “Epi.com”. This strategy aims to encourage reading and information processing in students from the age of 3. The aim of this work is to analyze the effectiveness of EPI.com improving reading and cognitive processes in a sample of Preschool children. 25 students aged 5 to 6 years were involved in the study (divided into experimental and control groups). They complete the Reading Initial Battery 3-6 (BIL in Spanish) and the Cognitive Assessment System DN-CAS. Results indicate that students who use EPI.com show a significant improvement in both reading and cognitive processes after the intervention. These results are discussed in the light of previous literature, and future lines of research are suggested.
