Title: Very extensive and theoritical text!
Review: If you were ever wondering how students learn to read, how they acquire skills needed for good reading, or how different models and theories play a role in the reading process, then this is your text. The International Reading Association has developed a text based on extensive and comprehensive research in reading development and instruction. This text provides theory needed to understand the reading process, and what students are actually DOING while they read. Articles focus on the cognitive and sociological processes involved in reading development, as well as reading comprehension, vocubulary development, fluency, reading disibilties etc.. It is very hard to read at times, but you DEFIANTLY learn alot from it. Great for a reading research course!
