Connect College Reading

$111.95

Chapters begin with a Read and Talk Reading that aim to get students reading and talking among their peers about high-interest readings. The readings are supported by vocabulary help within the text, as well as audio and video support on the accompanying CourseMate.

The authors teach students a variety of proven techniques designed to help them master college-level reading skills, including three questions to ask about reading comprehension and the EASY vocabulary strategy.

Each end-of-chapter reading includes Critical Thinking Level questions that target all six levels of Bloom's taxonomy to get students in the practice of using the levels and broadening their ideas. These questions force students to identify why they chose their answer and what proof they have that their answer is the correct one.

Throughout the chapter, students encounter a range of reading pedagogy. Pre-Reading the Selection apparatus helps prepare students to read, gets them to connect their prior knowledge, and provides them with any cultural literacy knowledge they might need. Reading and vocabulary prompts during reading help students find the meaning in each paragraph and guide them through unknown vocabulary. Finally, the post-reading apparatus targets comprehension, critical thinking, and vocabulary retention. CONNECT asks more of students by asking "why" of all multiple-choice questions, students are forced to explain their thought processes for selecting an answer, a first step towards metacognition and critical thinking also creates better, more well-prepared readers.
