"My Eyes Move Dynamically": Inquiring into Adult English Learners' Reading through Retrospective Eye Movement Miscue Analysis
Wang, Yang; Arslan-Ari, Ismahan
Journal of Adolescent & Adult Literacy, v65 n2 p163-173 Sep-Oct 2021
This paper investigated two adult English learners' reading processes of reading informational texts through Retrospective Eye Movement Miscue Analysis (REMMA). The readers read two texts and retold what they read. Their reading was recorded by the Tobii Pro eye tracker. They watched their eye movement video and discussed their miscues and eye movements. The REMMA sessions helped the readers realize their misconception about reading, understand reading is meaning-making, uncover their strategies, and grow confidence. When readers have illusions about reading, secondary teachers and adult educators could invite them to share their reading views, talk about their reading, and discuss the importance of using images in informational texts.
