Understanding the Role
of Reading as a Basic Writing Component Copyright © 2015 by Nelson Education Ltd. Chapter 2 2-2
3.
The Role of
Reading Learning the roles of reading as a writing component are to help you •become a good reader of many types of writing styles •understand how to get the best information out of each source you encounter •consider how the intended audience and context impact the way that authors write Copyright © 2015 by Nelson Education Ltd. 2-3
4.
Start with Good
Reading Skills Reading critically and comprehensively means •identifying the main point of the article, story, chapter, or text •identifying the supporting details •determining the author’s point of view •considering how what you already know relates to the author’s understanding of the information •thinking through the author’s argument and logical conclusions •beginning to construct your own opinions Copyright © 2015 by Nelson Education Ltd. 2-4
5.
Skimming Skimming involves
looking at • the title of the text •the table of contents •the introduction •the first and last paragraph of each section •any keywords (places, facts, dates, locations, concepts) •any bolded, underlined, italicized, or offset information •the conclusion •the index or any extra notes Copyright © 2015 by Nelson Education Ltd. 2-5
6.
Scanning Scanning involves
looking for •specific topics or concepts •non-critical information (for example, information from a newspaper or the Web) •items that can be found quickly: • keywords • phrases • concepts Copyright © 2015 by Nelson Education Ltd. 2-6
7.
Six Steps for
Comprehensive Reading 1. Identify the article’s main message. 2. Identify supporting details. 3. Determine the author’s point of view. 4. Separate the author’s experience from your own. 5. Think through the author’s arguments and logical conclusions. 6. Begin to construct your own writing. Copyright © 2015 by Nelson Education Ltd. 2-7
8.
Identify the Main
Message The first question helps you decide what information is most important in the reading so you can decide if it suits your needs. The main point is, in the strictest sense, the summary of the goal or outcome of the piece, whether it is argumentative or fact-based. It often appears in the first few paragraphs of the text (e.g., in the first chapter of a textbook), and it is often expanded upon in the conclusion. Copyright © 2015 by Nelson Education Ltd. 2-8
9.
Identify Supporting Details
The second question helps you to classify the subtopics or categories that the author will discuss in the article. Many writers will list some supporting details in the first few paragraphs. The supporting details are the facts and the arguments that were hinted at in the main idea. Copyright © 2015 by Nelson Education Ltd. 2-9
10.
Determine the Author’s
Point of View The third question helps you to determine the argumentative stance the author has taken. It isn’t always easy to see what an author’s point of view is. Some ways to find it are to •consider the resources used •consider what is left out •think about personal stories used Sometimes the author will tell you outright what their point of view is. Copyright © 2015 by Nelson Education Ltd. 2-10
11.
Separate the Author’s
Experience from Your Own The fourth question helps you to clarify your own opinions on the subject matter. Find a way to link what you are reading to your own experiences. While it is very important to follow the logic of the argument you are reading (by finding the main point and supporting details), it is important to think about how you would write differently about the same topic. Copyright © 2015 by Nelson Education Ltd. 2-11
12.
Thinking Through Arguments
and Logical Conclusions The fifth question helps you to do a last check of the key material. This means reviewing the conclusion of the reading and analyzing how all the author’s previous points link together to reach this conclusion. Copyright © 2015 by Nelson Education Ltd. 2-12
13.
Construct Your Own
Writing The sixth question helps you to start preparing your own response. Ideally, the final thoughts you have on the subject come only after you have read deeply and critically through the sources you have chosen. Copyright © 2015 by Nelson Education Ltd. 2-13
14.
Practice reading articles
with a critical eye: this is one way to improve your own writing. Copyright © 2015 by Nelson Education Ltd. 2-14
15.
Summary • The
best way to improve your writing skills is to improve your critical and comprehensive reading skills. • This involves learning both to skim and to read carefully, looking for main points as well as details. • It also involves learning how to find the author’s point of view and to link what you are reading to your own experiences before you start writing.
