Proceedings of the College Reading Association, Volume 1, Spring 1961.
Ketcham, Clay A., Ed.
On October 11, 1958, The "Committee for a College Reading Association" held a college reading conference at LaSalle College and took the first formal steps to organize a "College Reading Association". This association consists primarily of those professionally interested in a forum for college reading programs in the northeast and middle Atlantic areas. This document is the first volume in the "Proceedings" of this new association and covers the papers presented at its Second Annual Meeting (1959) and its Third Annual Meeting (1960). Articles and their authors from those two conferences consist of: (1) "A Meeting on Reading in College (Bruce W. Brigham); (2) "Developmental Reading: The Challenge of an Unexplored Frontier" (Paul D. Leedy); (3) "Has the Reading Manual a Place in a College Reading Course?" (Herbert E. Ketcham); (4) "A Skills Approach" (Thomson L. Leiper); (5) "The Place of Teacher-Prepared Materials in the College Reading Program" (Eleanor Logan); (6) "A Self Motivating Approach to Developmental Reading with College Students" (Paul D. Leedy); (7) "Informal Measures in Reading Diagnosis" (Albert J. Mazurkiewicz); (8) "What Is Being Done in College Programs?" (Charles Colvin); (9) "Reading and Mass Media" (M. Jerry Weiss); (10) "Goals and Skills in Developmental Instruction" (Albert J. Mazurkiewicz); and (11) "A College Developmental Reading Course in Action" (Paul Drumm). An appendix includes the addresses for the active membership of the College Reading Association in 1961. (MS)
