College Online Developmental Reading Instruction: Creating a Path to Independent and Active Learning
Johnson, E. Janet
NADE Digest, v5 n2 p47-55 Fall 2010
Online courses require students to be independent readers and efficient learners. College students who need developmental reading lack these qualities; consequently, faculty do not generally view developmental reading courses as appropriate for an online format. However, an effectively designed online course based on best practices can engage less confident students and also promote active learning. The goal is to provide ways to enhance students' college-level reading skills and to develop independent learning. This paper discusses one instructor's online reading course that uses Web tools to create an active learning environment.
