Effectiveness of Reading Strategies for College Students “Reading was viewed as the simple process of decoding text, with the student or reader receiving the information presented by the text. Today, it is seen as a “dynamic process in which the reader works actively to construct meaning” (Barton, 1997; Pelech & Hibbard, 2011, p. 101).” Pelech, J. & Hibbard, S. T. (2011). Evaluating the effectiveness of reading strategies for college students: an action research approach. Journal of Research in Education. (21)1, pp. 99-114

Reading Strategies Making connections between prior knowledge and the text Asking questions Visualizing Drawing inferences Determining important ideas Synthesizing information Repairing Understanding Pelech, J. & Hibbard, S. T. (2011). Evaluating the effectiveness of reading strategies for college students: an action research approach. Journal of Research in Education. (21)1, pp. 99-114

The Process… Content Knowledge Structural Knowledge Process Knowledge Connecting prior knowledge Construct + integrate Structural Knowledge Organization or arrangement of text (Cook & Meyer, 1983) Story -> Setting -> theme -> Plot -> resolution Process Knowledge How brain stores information

One strategy: SQ3R* Survey Looking through the pages, titles, section titles, etc. Question Write questions to help guide you through your reading. FURTHER What did you discuss in class, read in your last assignment and how does this text draw upon this or extend this information?

Read Read through the information without making notes/highlighting; then reread. FURTHER Pay special attention to the structure of the text, introduction, first sentence and last sentence of paragraph, and extract main ideas. Recall Write down what you remember about what you read. Being able to write what you read into your own words helps you recall and relate to the text! Explain it to someone else; start a study team or find a study partner. Review Read through your notes and questions *Adapted from: The Learning Centre, The University of New South Wales.
