Braille is "touching" a book. We consider that reading.

I still think it’s not reading. Reading is reading. Listening is listening. Whether it activates the same cognitive part of the brain one is reading. The other is listening and that’s OK too.

Listening to a book will not improve your spelling and grammar. So that is one benefit you are losing.

If audio books don’t count then neither does reading to your children and we all know that has massive benefits

I have dyslexia and ADHD, and I have always felt less educated than others because I can't read normally. This video made me feel much better. Thank you so much ❤️.

as a teacher this entire debate gets me. the skill of reading is separated from the skill of listening. you practice both. the act of consuming books is commonly known as "reading books", but if

It isn’t cheating. You have consumed the content. But listening is not reading. They are distinct activities. I would never read a play and tell someone I saw it.

Nobody is saying it's superior or inferior, but it's not the same. Reading and listening is 2 different activities, even if the information obtained is the same. The methods were s different.

this is not about cognitive response the issue when reading your have to focus in book vs doing other task while listening. this is why we say it is cheating not giving the book the focus it deserves.

Listening is not reading. But both are consumption. However, those who don’t read end up writing crazy like “should of,” “could of” and “would of” because they’ve never seen the correct spelling.

Reading takes more time commitment. You can listen to a book while driving or doing other activities. When you are actually reading, you have to sit and focus solely on the page. I think that’s why

It's not reading and it's also not cheating. Just say you LISTENED to the book. There's nothing wrong with that... You still got the full experience of the book just in a different manner

"the art of passing stories came before most people could read or write, so if you wanna be a snob, i'm having the original experience of storytelling" there. fight snobbery with more snobbery. 😂

Audio books are not an inferior cognitive experience but listening to a book is not the same as reading it

Those saying listening to an audiobook is not “reading”. Well, with that logic, when you read you’re just “looking”. Why is looking superior to listening?

Listening and reading are not the same. WORDS MATTER. They have definitions. They are different actions… But that’s not to say that one is more superior than the other.
