This presentation focuses on the concept of active reading strategies. Participants will be introduced to an array of strategies to train students on going beyond the passive retrieval of information from a reading passage. The purpose is to shed more light on the advantageous use of advanced reading skills, such as summarizing, interpreting, comparing and analyzing to interact actively and effectively with any given text. In a similar vein, this practical workshop will engage participants into hands-on activities so as to practise a number of active reading strategies for encouraging and maintaining students’ motivation in reading classes.
The SQ3R method is an active reading strategy which helps you to: remember what you read; identify and summarise key themes; check your understanding of the content; and take effective notes.
Students learn how to take good notes while reading both fiction and non fiction. Using proven techniques like the Frayer Model, Reciprocal Teaching, and thinking out loud, students learn how to organize, listen, increase vocabulary, stratgize and see cause and effect.
