    The effect of cooperative learning on improving college students' reading comprehension
    (Pereira : Universidad Tecnológica de Pereira, 2013) Quejada Robinson, Keisha Sharen
    One of the major challenges for learners and instructors is to find the way of improving reading comprehension achievements. Fortunately, cooperative learning is a method through which this can be implemented and improved, since it encourages students to work in small team groups with different level of ability, where they help each other, they are responsible for their learning as well as the teammates learning, and work on an assignment until all member successfully understand and complete it. Also, this method permit students to acquire more language and social skills that others whom studying the same content under individualistic classroom condition will never reach. Beside, it maximize opportunities for authentic and communicate language, it enriches the language, the interaction among companions and it increase opportunity to individualize instruction.

    Metacognition and reading comprehension : Alireza Karbalaei
    (Pereira : Universidad Tecnológica de Pereira, 2013) Parra Galvis, Marcela ; Restrepo Salinas, Diana Katherine
    This paper is aimed to argument, expand and critique some points that were held in the article “METACOGNITION AND READING COMPREHENSION” written by Alireza Karbalaei, 2010, an EFL teacher and Ph. D Graduate in ELT from the Department of English Language, Islamic Azad University. We organize the paper in three sessions. First, we explore the policies for teaching reading in the EFL; contextualizing into a more specific setting and supporting the ideas with the results from the ICFES exam. Then, we continue with the concepts of reading and reading comprehension which are focused on the way we recognize the words from a text and the way we relate those words with our previous knowledge towards making meaning out of it. Finally, we bring up the reading strategies used when approaching top-down and bottom-up processes.

    Re-envisioning reading comprehension for english language learners a critical point of view
    (Pereira : Universidad Tecnológica de Pereira, 2013) Restrepo Morales, Paula Andrea ; Martínez Buitrago, Erika
    When teaching a second language, it is important to bear in mind that the four skills: speaking, writing, listening, and reading must be facilitated and developed with the same relevance. However, some learners might tell their teacher they can understand everything he says, but they are unable to produce; or that they can understand a simple text, but when they face comprehension questions that require a critical level of understanding, they do not perform as expected. It is well known that productive skills depend on receptive skills (listening and reading) due to these serve as models for written and oral production; even though one of the most common problems teachers face with students and one of the most complex processes during teaching is oral and written comprehension, we could say that learners are more exposed to listening than to reading practice.
