Recenzii
"This is a compelling and powerful book that masterfully grounds strategic processing instruction in both theory and research. It is an excellent resource to help classroom teachers and literacy specialists develop the extensive knowledge base needed to self-regulate their practice. New chapters in the second edition assist teachers in planning and organizing instruction and implementing it within an RTI framework. The discussions in these chapters are essential because they help bridge the gap between research and practice."--Lynn E. Shanahan, PhD, Department of Learning and Instruction, University at Buffalo, State University of New York
"This second edition takes an already excellent book and makes it even better! With a rich research base and real-life classroom examples, the book shows teachers how to take on the challenge of teaching strategic processes in reading, including how to do so within RTI frameworks. Perfect for teacher study groups and master’s courses, this comprehensive book guides teachers step by step to create motivated, strategic readers."--Mariam Jean Dreher, PhD, Department of Teaching, Learning, Policy, and Leadership, University of Maryland, College Park
"The professional literature often downplays the challenge of effectively teaching comprehension strategies. Thank goodness we have Almasi and Fullerton's splendid book to support our efforts. This text is an indispensable part of my graduate teaching; it provides a coherent model for developing and delivering strategy instruction. I particularly appreciate the excellent sections on the explicit teaching of strategies and the scaffolding of students' learning, as well as the annotated lesson plans. The second edition supplements these features with expanded information on RTI. Most notably, this book is solidly research based and not just a compendium of recommended practices. It is a powerful, comprehensive resource that can be adapted for diverse audiences and purposes."--Rachel Brown, PhD, Director, Literacy Master's Programs, Syracuse University
