Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

With READING TO LEARN IN THE CONTENT AREAS, Seventh Edition, future educators discover how they can teach students to use reading, discussion, and writing as vehicles for learning in any discipline. The text explores how the increased availability of computers, instructional software, and Internet resources, as well as the rise of electronic literacy in general, have affected the ways children learn and create meaning from their world. The authors' unique lesson framework for instruction, PAR (Preparation/Assistance/Reflection), extends throughout the book. The text's reader-friendly presentation, balanced approach, strong research base, and inclusion of real-life examples from a variety of subject areas and grade levels have helped make it one of the most popular and effective books on the market.

Críticas

"An outstanding resource for students that models best practices in its organization and design." "I have been a fan of this text for many years. It seems to improve with every edition. Its greatest strengths are its in-depth topic coverage, range of activity examples (drawn from real classrooms), and integration of the PAR Lesson Framework." "The READING TO LEARN IN THE CONTENT AREAS text is a prized possession for my teachers . . . it is easy to read, offers good examples for them to use in their classrooms and they really like and continue to use the PAR lesson format as it benefits their students." "Overall, I think this is one of the best books on the market. My students and I really appreciate the plethora of examples across the disciplines and the PAR reference guide to help them locate them. . . . I tell [colleagues] that the book is theoretically sound and it contains examples to which students can relate."
