Abstract
Using tablet PCs for reading and learning is a relatively new experience for students of all ages. While their use has become popular among youngsters, children from remote areas or disadvantaged families might need guidance in using devices and resources for experiencing tablet reading and learning. To support children's reading, college students planned reading activities with tablet PCs. Promotion of tablet reading activities among children in schools with limited resources is one of the innovative approaches to bridging the technology divide. In this paper, college students’ participation in a mobile reading service is reported. Their reflections on the training and engagement in the volunteer services are analyzed. Modern technology creates opportunities to engage students from underserved communities in reading. Through the use of tablet devices, college students are provided with opportunities to plan and implement various applications for actual practice. Learning from these services is a valuable experience.
