The Main Idea

Reading to Learn

By: Myrna Bigman Skidell,Sidney Graves Becker

This highly successful, user-friendly text helps readers learn strategic behaviors that empower them to succeed in their reading. The Main Idea emphasizes reading to learn. Readers develop an increasingly complex understanding of the reading process through incremental strategies and "game plans." Enlightening reading selections vary in topics and lengths within each chapter, and a casebook of longer readings all based on the theme of intergenerational relationships expose readers to worldwide issues to integrate chapter concepts with real-world material. In addition, a wealth of pedagogical features, such as discipline-specific vocabulary instruction, individual and collaborative activities, critical thinking and reading strategies, and a complete chapter on reading college textbooks, give the developmental reader the necessary tools to succeed. For those interested in improving basic reading skills.
