Introduction[edit | edit source]
Reading is a two-way conversation between the author and the reader, between someone who knows more about a subject, with someone who is trying to learn about it. Reading is considered "the primary source for obtaining knowledge and information", and "gateway to success in education."[1] Regular reading becomes a habit and only when the act of reading is persistent, constant and done critically. [1]As reading and learning are linked, reading strategies can help in achieving success in learning. Positive reading attitudes lead to positive reading experiences and good academic performance. [2]
To be actively involved in reading, an individual must be critically engaged with the text, understand the intention for reading, stay focused and mentally committed. Reading is a process that requires motivation, interest, purpose and strategies
