I want my students to think about how to read when the goal is to learn to complete a task. I give them written instructions for doing a card trick and ask them to complete the trick. The…

Slow reading has long been viewed as a teaching technique that engages students more deeply with course readings. Little systematic research, however, has been done to understand how this pedagogical strategy works in college classrooms. This study investigated how slow reading techniques promoted deep learning among undergraduate college students…

Kristen Michelson; James F. Lee; Mourad Abdennebi – Language Teaching Research, 2025
Recent scholarship in multiliteracies-oriented pedagogies has advocated for greater attention to fostering 'textual thinking', understood as forms of literacy that consider the complexities of semiotic choices made by authors, and their underlying meanings, rhetorical purposes, and cultural contexts. This kind of engagement with texts calls upon…

Abel, Jessica Rose – ProQuest LLC, 2018
As a novel that asks how we can live in a world of uncertain values and urgent identity politics, James Joyce's Ulysses could be more relevant than ever, but its textual complexity poses a steep burden to new readers. Teaching Joyce's Ulysses models a new method of teaching Joyce's novel using the theory of fictional possible worlds, which…

Evans, Dana M. – ProQuest LLC, 2019
Place-based instructional practices can be applied to literacy instructional techniques through reading aloud in local community places. In today's rapidly changing informational landscapes, communication and comprehension require more than the literacy skills of reading and writing proficiency. In order to support changing forms of communication…

Logotheti, Anastasia – Research in Drama Education, 2020
The recent abundance of film adaptations and stage productions of Shakespearean drama as well as of digital platforms offering access to texts and to scholarly resources may impact the teaching of Shakespeare's plays significantly, especially for learners geographically remote from traditional centres of Shakespeare studies and from live…

Dorfman, Aviva; Kenney, Christine; Lee, Jennifer Deesta; Dunham, Kathleen – Journal of Early Childhood Teacher Education, 2020
Face-to-face time with students in the early childhood college setting is at a premium and often flies by before we begin to scratch the surface of active learning. Building a community of learners is one of our main goals as instructors; therefore, we strive to set up active learning environments optimal for all students. This reflection on…

Zondi, Nompumelelo B. – Education as Change, 2020
Although viewed (and dismissed) by many as primarily a tool for communication, language (and literature) cannot be understood only in relation to "what" it communicates. A study of "how" it is shaped uncovers the social forces that provide its broad and complex template in the acts of reading and writing. This article focuses…

Harvey, Miles; Deuel, Adrianna; Marlatt, Rick – Journal of Adolescent & Adult Literacy, 2020
In an eighth-grade English language arts class, 100 students used virtual reality headsets, augmented reality--capable smartphones, tablets, desktop computers, online scavenger hunts, and print-based texts as an introduction to William Shakespeare's life and works. The authors highlight the need for educators to offer multimodal instruction that…

Poletti, Anna; Seaboyer, Judith; Kennedy, Rosanne; Barnett, Tully; Douglas, Kate – Arts and Humanities in Higher Education: An International Journal of Theory, Research and Practice, 2016
This article brings recent debates in literary studies regarding the practice of close reading into conversation with Derek Attridge's idea of "readerly hospitality" (2004) to diagnose the problem of students in undergraduate literary studies programme not completing set reading. We argue that the method of close reading depends on…

Bilingual Teachers and Young Children Co-Constructing Affect and Play in Translanguaging Read-Alouds
Beauchemin, Faythe; Qin, Kongji – English Teaching: Practice and Critique, 2023
Purpose: Affect is central to the process of teaching and learning. The recent affective turn in literacy education has further underscored its critical potential as an act of resistance against dehumanizing forces that impact students' schooling and life experiences (Dutro, 2019; Leander and Ehret, 2019). This article, taking up the notion of…
