On the Horns of a Dilemma: Is Reading Aloud Bad Pedagogy?
Goulden, Rick
TESL Canada Journal, v20 n1 p74-82 Win 2002
Examines whether reading aloud in the classroom is an appropriate student-centered method of teaching reading. Describes how using this method to study Steinbeck's novel, "of Mice and Men," provides a structural, sociolinguistics, cultural, and stylistic knowledge through a combination of explanation and active engagement.
