Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strategic teaching of reading occurs at the elementary level, and students are expected to "read to learn" once they enter high school. The majority of the nation's secondary students do not have all the requisite skills to read and learn from high school texts and materials, and even drop-out rates have been attributed to students' inability to keep pace with the literacy skill demanded by the secondary curriculum. No Child Left Behind legislation now mandates secondary school reading initiatives, from high stakes testing to remediation. Despite the national focus on secondary reading, teachers in America's secondary schools are not teaching the skills and strategies necessary for their students to grow as readers and learn from what they read (ACT, 2007; Biancarosa & Snow, 2004). The study quantified Michigan's secondary content area teachers' attitudes toward teaching reading and examined the relationship between those attitudes and predictor variables of content area, level/type of training in teaching reading, degree level, and degree of learner centerdness. Data was collected from 191 male and female respondents vai email link to a survey using the Otto Smith Inventory Scale to measure teacher attitudes toward teaching reading and a portion of the Learner Centered Battery Scale to measure the respondents' learner-centeredness. Teacher respondents had generally positive attitudes toward teaching reading. Math and science respondents had significantly lower attitude scores that English teachers. Post-bachelors' training/education correlated positively with teacher attitudes toward teaching reading. A positive relationship existed between respondents' learner centered beliefs and their attitudes toward teaching content area reading. The data showed a negative relationship between non-learner centered beliefs and the respondents score on the OSI. Both correlations were significant at the .01 level. According to the data, the more learner centered a teacher, the more positive her attitude toward content area reading instruction. Conversely, the stronger a teacher's non-learner centered beliefs, the more negative her attitude toward content area reading instruction. The findings from this study provide important insights for designing inservice or post-bachelors training programs to create learner-centered belief systems and positive attitudes toward teaching content area instruction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Secondary School Reading presents carefully thought out, practical strategies for promoting the development of reading skills at the post-elementary level. Practical applications are presented through their relationship to the theoretical conception of the total reading-learning process as they relate to the learner's needs. Reading instruction in the secondary school is essentially different than elementary instruction in the school. The older young people have different needs and interests and utilize different cognitive strategies. This volume presents strategies for older learners which reflects a thorough knowledge of both reading and teaching, as well as many years of experience in teaching this level. Secondary School Reading is a good blend of theoretical constructs and practical application. Its examples offer the teacher many ideas for learning activities. Its appendices direct the reader to many sources of information and teaching materials.
