Never Mind the Strategy, Feel the Despair: Evidence of Higher Education Students' Ineffectual Reading.
Maclellan, Effie
Scottish Educational Review, v28 n1 p26-36 May 1996
Interview data from 30 third-year college students in Scotland suggest that students' strategies for reading expository text were primitive. There was some evidence of comprehension monitoring in that students recognized that their learning was slight but little evidence of strategies that could affect and advance comprehension. Contains 43 references. (SV)
