Paris, S. G. & Stahl, S. A. (2005). Children's Reading Comprehension and Assessment Mahwah, NJ: Lawrence Erlbaum Associates Publishers.
The authors believe that in spite of a tremendous amount of work and resources being dedicated to the improvement of children’s reading skills, understanding how children learn to read, how to teach reading, and how to help struggling readers still remains a puzzle. Through this book some important insights are shared. Originating in the conference at the Centre for the Improvement of Early Reading Achievement (CIERA), the book examines how readers understand text and how comprehension is assessed. |
