What are the three functions of critical reading?

Answer 1

First of all, the student should read the subject to get a good lead of the essay. Then, he should browse through the pages without actually reading line by line, this helps to get a general gist of the topic to be studied. The third and most important stage is reading through carefully and making notes were one thinks requires more stress.

Answer 2

There are a few different scales that I have seen. This is the one we talked about in my college Reading class.

Emergent, Early, Developing and Fluent. These are pretty much standard, with the addition of Pre-Emergent, in some cases.

Here is a website I found useful to explain each stage in more detail. http://www.sarasota.k12.fl.us/sarasota/develstgrd.htm

Stage 1 - INITIAL DECODING

The majority of students who experience difficulty acquiring decoding skills do so not because of visual perceptual problems, as commonly believed in the past, but because of problems with the phonological aspects of language.

An understanding of the phonetic structure of the English language is a must if a poor reader is to become a good reader.

Stage 2 - FLUENCY

It is only when the decoding process becomes automatic that is, both accurate and rapid that attention is freed for higher-level reading comprehension skills.

Without rapid word recognition, one cannot go on to stage 3.

Stage 3 - READING FOR MEANING

Once reading becomes both accurate and fluent, the task of reading becomes one of understanding the content. It is during this stage that students expand their knowledge base.

Students who are reading below their grade level lack significantly in their knowledge base.

Stage 4 - RELATIONSHIPS AND VIEWPOINTS

In stage 4, students learn to read more complex materials from various sources. Effective reading is critical to success.

A child that has difficulty in reading falls further behind in school.

Stage 5 - SYNTHESIS

Ideally, this is the type of intellectual pursuit that occurs at the college level. The reader synthesizes information from a variety of sources to form hypotheses. Stage 5 reading emerges as a result of intensive study in a content area.
