Dan Kurland’s www.criticalreading.com — Strategies for Critical Reading and Writing
Reading is more than looking at the words on a page. Critical reading involves re-reading text to “dentify patterns of elements — information, values, assumptions, and language usage– throughout the discussion. These elements are tied together in an interpretation, an assertion of an underlying meaning of the text as a whole.”
Carnegie report follow-up to Writing Next. This report provides evidence answering the following three questions:
1. Does writing about material students read enhance their reading comprehension?
2. Does teaching writing strengthen students’ reading skills?
3. Does increasing how much students write improve how well they read?
Rubric Library | the web’s best resource for quality rubrics
“This community resource is brought to you by Waypoint Outcomes, developers of web-based software that helps educators create exceptional feedback for learners by using rich, interactive rubrics. We are constructing this library to showcase the content we have created over the last five years, and to help educators find consistently good rubrics that they can edit to suit their own needs”
