Reading Processes
What’s so special about college reading? Don’t you just pick up the book, start on the first page, and keep going as you have ever since you met The Cat in the Hat? Reading from beginning to end works especially well when you are eager to find out what happens next, as in a thriller, or what to do next, as in a cookbook. On the other hand, the dense, challenging texts typical of college will require closer reading and deeper thinking—in short, a process for reading critically.
