Author:Schumaker, Jean B.; Deshler, Donald D.; Nolan, Susan M.; Alley, Gordon R.
Resource Description
The Self-Questioning Strategy helps students create their own motivation for reading. Students create questions in their minds, predict the answers to those questions, search for the answers to those questions as they read, and paraphrase the answers to themselves.
In research studies, students showed average gains of 40 percentage points in reading comprehension of grade-level materials after they learned the strategy
The Strategic Instruction Model is a comprehensive, research-validated approach to adolescent literacy that addresses the needs of students to be able to read and understand large volumes of complex materials as well as their need to be able to express themselves effectively in writing.
