This volume is based on collaborative, multidisciplinary research into how students read in first-year courses in subjects ranging from scientific literacy through composition. The authors discovered the good (students can read), the bad (students are not reading for social engagement), and the ugly (class assignments may be setting students up for failure) and they offer strategies that can better engage students and provide more meaningful reading experiences.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKaren Manarin is Associate Professor of English at Mount Royal University.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMiriam Carey is Associate Professor of Policy Studies and in the Academic Development Centre at Mount Royal University.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMelanie Rathburn is Associate Professor of Biology and General Education at Mount Royal University.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGlen Ryland is Assistant Professor in the Department of General Education, Faculty of Teaching and Learning at Mount Royal University.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 178\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.42 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 15, 2015\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45302624551014,"sku":"9780253018922","price":44.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/7255\/0758\/files\/aHNMdHMvY1d1UHdoVWYzSmYwSkVGZz09.webp?v=1774007424","url":"https:\/\/infinitylightwa.com\/products\/critical-reading-in-higher-education-academic-goals-and-social-engagement-paperback","provider":"Infinity Light","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
