Activity 5: Competence Builder

Critical Reading Techniques

  • Go to the Activity 4 link to the University of Wollongong in Australia. Select a reading strategy that you currently use or would like to try in the future.
  • Select and copy the reading strategy, and then go to the LCO1 Learning Community thread called “Module 4 Competence Builder: Critical Reading.” Paste your strategy information into a post and then comment on the benefits of this strategy (whether you have used it in the past, or expect to use it in the future).
  • Include a real-world example of text you have recently read (newspaper, textbook, novel, etc) in which this strategy would help your interpretation.
