Effective reading habits are essential to academic success. But we all face challenges in fostering student reading, from figuring out how to motivate students to do the reading to teaching students how to successfully read for college-level courses. In this workshop, we will explore barriers to student reading and strategize ways to overcome these barriers. We will also learn how to implement practices that will increase students’ confidence and abilities to critically analyze text through a variety of activities inside and outside the classroom. If you have questions please contact Emily Kress and Katie Healey.
