| description | Research on academic reading has resulted in lists of strategies
employed by the proficient and the less proficient readers.
Nonetheless, not much research has attempted to investigate the
academic reading strategies of adult learners by considering the
potential influence of their common characteristics: experience, selfconcept
and time perspective. This study examined in depth the
academic reading strategies of four adult learners by considering
the influence of these common characteristics. After providing the
synopsis of the reading models, examples of academic reading
strategies and theories on adult learners, this article describes the
study's methodology, findings, and implications. The findings
indicate that the proficient adult readers in this study were able to
manipulate their characteristics to the advantage of their academic
reading. Based on the findings, the ZZZ Adult Academic Reading
Model was designed. It is hoped that this model will guide adult
educators as well as adult learners in academic reading classes. |
