Making the Connection between Research and Reality: Strategies Teachers Use To Read and Evaluate Journal Articles.
Shearer, Brenda A.; Lundeberg, Mary Anna; Coballes-Vega, Carmen
Journal of Educational Psychology, v89 n4 p592-98 Dec 1997
This investigation of domain-specific professional reading clarified the way 12 professionally active teachers select and read journal articles in their field. Think-aloud reports identified categories of (1) using strategies; (2) connecting to practice; (3) monitoring; (4) questioning; and (5) evaluating. These teachers created meaning in complex personal ways as they read. (Author/SLD)
