Reading for College is shaped by two research-based assumptions: students are most engaged when the material is revelant to their lives and students are most successful when they are active learners. To support the first premise, author Corrine Fennessy brings a career topic into focus for each chapter and uses carefully chosen “real-world” reading selection so that students can start to think about possible careers and setting goals. For the latter principle, Fennessy engages students in activities-based learning in order to help them master key reading skills. Students learn by doing, not by reading extensively about how to do something. The end result is students' mastery of key reading skills and strategies while discovering connections to the readings themselves. 0321980697 / 9780321980694 Reading for College Plus NEW MyReadingLab with eText -- Access Card Package Package consists of: 0205869165 / 9780205869169 NEW MyReadingLab with Pearson eText -- Valuepack Access Card 0321853156 / 9780321853158 Reading for College, Book 2
