How to Read Texts: A Student Guide to Critical Approaches and Skills
A considered look into how students read texts on the eve of college/university level courses. I plan on using this in my AP Literature class next year as a primer into the course and to help develop student comprehension by making the act of read more explicit as a conscious act.
Neil McCaw's 2nd edition divides into seven chapters: What type of reader are you right now?; Reading creatively; Reading texts closely, Reading biography, authors and readers; Reading genre and literary/cultural history; Reading social and political history; Reading philosophically; or, critical theory.
In each chapter, McCaw provides concrete mini-lessons while also introducing semiotics and gradually building up to critical theory
