SAMPLE
註釋
The ability to read effectively—to work with a text, understand its meaning, and talk and write about it with, and for, others—is a critical aspect of academic and workplace success. However, many adults who are learning English as a second or additional language do not have the skills needed to be successful and may drop out of college and university programs before they reach their goal. Bringing together a rich collection of topics and authors, this edited volume provides theory, research, and instructional approaches to help adult education ESL practitioners work effectively with adult learners and prepare them to be successful with reading in academic and workplace settings.
After reading this book, adult ESL practitioners will be able to
Prepare adults learning English to apply appropriate reading strategies to a variety of academic and professional contexts and purposes
Use instructional strategies, including digital technology, to help struggling and developing readers close gaps in skills and conceptual knowledge
Improve reading comprehension through robust vocabulary instruction
Enhance reading skills and comprehension through writing instruction that balances sentence-level, discourse, and interactive processes and practices
Inspire students to become lifelong readers who engage in extensive reading outside of school and professional contexts
