The document discusses using technology as an engaging remedial resource for students who struggle with literacy skills like long vowel sounds. It recommends that remediation lessons 1) engage students with interactive activities using technology or peers instead of just drill, 2) teach to different learning styles, and 3) make the activities fun. As an example, the author describes her lesson on long a sounds that began with a video, had students make videos of long a words using Animoto, and included games on Starfall for additional practice.
