2. The main purposes of a reading programme
|
- A reading programmes designed for adults who are reading at entry-level (or starting points) has two main purposes. It should provide:
- intensive, focused teaching that explicitly addresses the learners’ most significant next step for learning (sometimes called “strategic teaching”); and
- plenty of opportunities for learners to practise what they are learning with texts that are meaningful to them.
In order to design and implement a programme, educators need specialised knowledge about literacy learning.
