COMPREHENDING COMPLEX TEXTS
The PurposeSTUDENTS: To enable students in today’s schools to achieve high competencies in reading, understanding, and using complex texts.
EDUCATORS: To prepare educators to provide students with a “balanced diet” of complex reading resources and activities that go beyond required textbooks and include primary and secondary sources of authority.
Reference: Dow, M. J. (Ed. and Author). (2013). School libraries matter: Views from the research. Santa Barbara, CA: Libraries Unlimited.
The Premise Teachers and school librarians can together as educational partners create robust environments where reading, inquiry, questioning, creativity, and problem-solving abound and students experience academic achievement and career and workplace success.
theory of school librarianship School librarians are experts in content areas and pedagogy, particularly guided inquiry , an instructional method concerned with perception, emotions, imagination, and how they relate to knowing, understanding, and feeling about the world. They are experts in locating and retrieving information; organization and classification of information; and evaluation and use of information.
School librarians are experts in understanding and communicating about human information behavior, the human capacities that people have to need, seek, give, and use information in different contexts, and in understanding the flow of information in society (information transfer cycles).
Essential Questions 1. How can educators including classroom teachers and school librarians achieve goals of a comprehensive reading curriculum that improves students’ reading and use of complex texts?
2. How can educators including classroom teachers and school librarians teach rigorous reading and comprehension of complex texts?
First Principles of Instruction
Merrill, 2007
1. Learning is promoted when learners are engaged in solving real-world problems.
2. Learning is promoted when existing knowledge
is activated as a foundation for new knowledge.
3. Learning is promoted when new knowledge is
demonstrated to the learner.
4. Learning is promoted when new knowledge is
applied by the learner.
5. Learning is promoted when new knowledge is
integrated into the learner’s world.
