Indiana University Press Critical Reading in Higher Education
Book SynopsisFaculty often worry that students can't or won't read critically, a foundational skill for success in academic and professional endeavors. Critical reading refers both to reading for academic purposes and reading for social engagement. This volume is based on collaborative, multidisciplinary research into how students read in first-year courses in subjects ranging from scientific literacy through composition. The authors discovered the good (students can read), the bad (students are not reading for social engagement), and the ugly (class assignments may be setting students up for failure) and they offer strategies that can better engage students and provide more meaningful reading experiences.Trade Review"Offers an extensive examination of 'critical reading' in terms of what it is, how it is understood both by students and faculty from a range of disciplinary angles, how it is taught, and how it could be taught when informed by research. What is most valuable is the fact that the authors' conclusions are anchored in and derived from actual student reading activity... An important contribution to scholarship." -Patricia Donahue, Lafayette CollegeTable of ContentsForeword by Pat HutchingsPrefaceIntroduction1. Different Courses, Common Concern2. Can Students Read?

John Wiley and Sons Ltd Theories of Reading Books Bodies and Bibliomania
Book Synopsis* A compelling history of theories of reading, a common component of literary theory and history of the book courses at undergraduate level. * This is the first major work to bring insights from book history to bear on literary history and theory.Trade Review"Littau has not only researched the archives of reader-response criticism exhaustively but thought long and hard about what each author represents in terms of the values associated with reading. Theories of Reading will thus prove an invaluable resource for all students new to the field of reader/reception theory, as well as for supervisors keen for their graduate students to reflect a little more critically on their own textual practice ... a rich, thorough and impeccably researched study that combines scholarship, historiography, and theoretical reflection in an impressive, and wholly engaging way." Modern Philology "It offers a useful survey of how reading since the advent of the printing press has been to do not only with intellectual, disembodied responses but also with embodied ones ... This book therefore marks an important step in challenging 'high' theory (and not only theories of reading) to reprioritise matter." Forum for Modern Language Studies "Littau’s book is genuinely original in its ambitious intellectual range, creating a convergence of academic streams which few in the fiefdom-ridden world of academic life have risked ... Theories of Reading deserves to become known to a wide—and appropriately self-conscious—audience of readers." Script & Print "Wide ranging and interdisciplinary in scope, Littau's work offers a unique summary of current critical understanding of reading and readership studies. It sensitively combines excellent summaries of cultural and literary theories of reading with robust considerations of the material nature of written texts, drawing our attention to the way technology has shaped reading sensibilities and thinking itself. This is an essential text for those involved in studying the interaction of readers with texts from both material and interpretive perspectives."

Brookes Publishing Co The Power of RTI and Reading Profiles: A
Book SynopsisThis one-of-a-kind text explains why RTI is today’s best approach for preventing reading difficulties—and how research on reading profiles can enhance the power of RTI.

Brookes Publishing Co Advances in Reading Intervention: Research to
Book SynopsisThis latest volume in the Extraordinary Brain series represents a joint effort between researchers and practitioners to shape the future of early reading intervention by taking stock of the present and making recommendations for the future.Effective early reading intervention depends on research and practice that leads to positive changes in classroom practice and better student reading outcomes. This important volume promotes the valuable “research to practice to research” loop, bringing top experts and practitioners together to examine what we know—and what we need to know—about effective reading and writing intervention.The newest addition to the respected Extraordinary Brain series, this book compiles and expands on critical findings presented at The Dyslexia Foundation’s biannual symposium. More than 35 researchers and practitioners explore the latest on topics relevant to effective reading and writing education, from neurobiology and genetics to specific strategies for translating research into intervention—and learning from the results of these interventions to inform new research. The concluding chapters map out key priorities for future research and innovation.An essential text for teachers, reading specialists, reading researchers, administrators, and students in graduate courses, this volume marks a significant step toward resolving the literacy challenges of young learners. It will also help move the field toward a firmly established “research to practice to research” collaboration among researchers and practitioners.Key topics covered: neurobiological bases of word recognition and comprehension how behavioral genetics can inform education translating and applying research to the classroom designing and interpreting the results of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) the correlation between rapid automatized naming (RAN) speed and reading development the impact of eye movement research on our understanding of skilled reading reading development and difficulties among English Language Learners dialect variation in African American children the writing challenges of children with dyslexia and Language Learning Difficulty (LLD) developing research ideas from classroom and school experiences specific considerations for the field as it progresses and develops and more Trade Review“The authors are outstanding researchers who are closely attuned to the realities of the home, school, and community. I hope the book is read by everyone committed to addressing the hardest cases, children for whom reading and writing are especially difficult.” - Review by: Mark Seidenberg, Vilas Professor, University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA.“An excellent book … The chapters are comprehensive, well written, and contain the most up-to- date references. It is essential reading for all investigators in the areas of reading and reading disabilities.” - Review by: Linda Siegel, Professor Emerita, University of British Columbia, Canada.“Presents current frontiers of research on typical and atypical reading and outlines both directions and destinations for future research.” - Review by: Elena Grigorenko, Yale University“Fielding a stellar set of dyslexia researchers and educators, Connor and McCardle have produced an important volume that sheds new light on how to best move effective reading interventions from the laboratory to the classroom.” - Review by: April Benasich, Rutgers University – Newark, USA.
