Reading
Resources for Teachers/Tutors
INTRODUCTION
The Adult Reading Components Study found that adult readers at the same comprehension level have varying skills in fluency, decoding and vocabulary. If you would like to explore some research on reading and its implications for the development of curriculum and instructional techniques, select one of the following topics:
- Reading Profiles
- Teaching Learners What Reading Is All About
- Reading Difficulties
- Ideas for Teaching Reading
Each self-study has three steps:
Step 1: Read the related research.
Step 2: Reflect on this research and your practice.
Step 3: Focus on an aspect of your practice.
If you wish to devote several sessions to the exploration of research on reading and its implications for your practice, consider organizing a study circle or seminar with other practitioners in your program or region. Click on this link for study circle and seminar guides.
