CLAY-WHY FOCUS ON READING? Our field does not do enough to address
reading in the classroom (Adler-Kassner and Estrem; Bunn; Jolliffe; Salvatori and Donahue)
ENG1010 emphasizes the genres of summary and response. Critical academic reading lies at the heart of
each of these genres. By strengthening students’ reading practices, we
give our students a more solid foundation for summarizing and responding to texts
CONNECTING READING & WRITING Performative practice of meaning-making
rooted in socio-cultural contexts Related, yet distinct, ways of interacting with
genres Practice-bound processes that are shaped by
specific purposes
READING PURPOSES Articulating reading purposes enable us to
develop more productive learning activities in the composition classroom
Adler-Kassner and Estrem outline four purposes: Content-based reading Process-based reading Structure-based reading Practice-based reading
