Efficient and Flexible Reading

By McWhorter

Efficient and Flexible Reading teaches readers how to vary their approach to written text based on the material and their purpose for reading. In addition to instruction in literal and critical comprehension skills, vocabulary, and study skills, Efficient and Flexible Reading helps readers identify text structures and thought patterns for more efficient learning. While encouraging active and critical reading, the book comprehensively covers all traditional reading topics. With sections on "Checking Your Vocabulary," "Evaluating Internet Sources," and "Reading in the 21st Century," along with an emphasis on discovering and working with one's personal learning style, Efficient and Flexible Reading helps both to increase one's reading rate and develop reading flexibility. For those interested in developing their reading skills at the 9-12 grade reading level.
