The Development of the KBAT-RC (Knowledge, Behavior and Attitudes Test for Reading Comprehension)

Аннотация

This article is about developing reading motivation by using meaningful tasks such as using reading to identify solutions to problems and other texts of interest to the students. Findings from the first sample suggest that teachers prefer more tangible practices when teaching reading comprehension (teaching vocabulary, prediction and asking questions), in contrast to developing the inference skills and self-monitoring for meaning strategies of the children they teach.
