Abstract:

Many senior secondary school students struggle with reading comprehension of expository texts in Nigeria, leading to mass failure in the Senior School Certificate Examinations conducted by the West African Examination Council (WAEC). Research on improving reading comprehension has dwelt on isolated reading strategies taught the learners through the conventional lecture method. No study has explored the effect of video-based training on metacognitive strategies and verbal ability on studentsâ€™ achievement in reading comprehension. This study, therefore investigated the effect on achievement in

Abstract:

Prediction skill may be used in reading comprehension passages as encapsulated in interactive approach instruction. Prediction skills assist learners to decode the meaning of comprehension passages by constructing guesses about the contents of texts to be read in comprehension passages. Learners in Vihiga County register low achievement in English language examinations than peers in neighbouring counties over the years. The performance is much weaker in comprehension passages than grammar sections. Although there are low grades, the nexus between use of prediction skills and learners&rsquo

Human beings transmit knowledge from one generation to another through many ways/skills. This is why the human being is different from other creatures. One of the many tools used by humans is reading. Reading is, no doubt, a complex but very important skill needed by everyone who wishes to succeed in life. The ultimate goal of reading is to be able to understand/comprehend written material, evaluate it, and use the material for one’s need. Comprehension, therefore, is required of the material read.

Abstract:

Oral reading assessments provide teachers with valuable information about children’s reading abilities, which can then inform instruction. However, the structure of some oral reading assessments (e.g., running records) have been critiqued, especially when they are used to provide students with a prescribed “reading level”. The purpose of the current study was to support in-service teachers (ISTs) and pre-service teachers (PSTs) in implementing a highly supportive oral reading assessment, the Listening to Reading–Watching While Writing Protocol (LTR—WWWP), which guides teachers towards specific

Abstract:

In order to navigate many of the circumstances that arise in everyday life, one must practice active listening. People listen to audio for a variety of reasons, including amusement, learning in scholarly fields, or gathering important information. Students with a wide variety of hearing problems often show symptoms when they try to comprehend the content delivered in English. Children often find it difficult to absorb spoken information since schools place a strong focus on language, reading, and writing. Most course guides and lecturers tend to downplay the importance of listening. The challe

Abstract:

Writing assignments at the collegiate level that emphasize synthesis are quite often assigned. In reading-to-writing tasks, students must choose, organize, and integrate facts from a variety of sources in order to produce an original piece of writing. This might be challenging for certain students. Consequently, it could be challenging for college students to construct a synthesis that has a distinct structure and is tightly connected to their own ideas. This research aimed to get a deeper understanding of the SOAR strategy system, which assists students in selecting, arranging, linking, and c

The primary objective of deconstruction is to express concepts qualitatively and analytically. Research
