The document discusses strategies for motivating students to read in English by supporting their psychological needs of competence, autonomy, and relatedness (CAR). It recommends that teachers develop students' intrinsic motivation, shift students toward more self-determined extrinsic motivation, and apply CAR principles to reading instruction by ensuring students feel capable, in control, and connected to others. Nurturing these motivational orientations and needs can help improve students' English reading outcomes.
