Using Blended Learning to Develop Critical Reading Skills
Original language description
Teacher education programs expect student teachers to succeed in a wide range of academic tasks that, apart from content knowledge, require effective application of their cognitive strategies as well as their academic abilities. In order to help the students meet these requirements, a great emphasis should be placed, among others, on their ability to read critically. However, students usually come to university with limited experience in academic reading, which reflects in their failure in academic tasks and at worst, consequent withdrawal from the university. Therefore, the introductory Study Skills course for the first year EFL students was modified so that it offered students an extended exposure to the reading tasks and activities through blended learning. An on-line module that supplemented in-class sessions was designed so that it complied with the principles of scaffolding instruction that helps students, by offering enough support, apply skills and strategies independently.
