What is Reading?
Conclusion
In former times people considered reading to be an act of „taking some content out of the text“: transferring the content from one container (the text) to another one (the reader´s brain). This is the so called container model of reading.
Today we know due to research in reader-response theory, psycholinguistics, cognitive psychology and brain research: Reading is an active (re-)construction of meaning. If we want to understand a word, a sentence, a text – we always need to link our background knowledge (about language, the world, action schemata etc.) to the written words in the text. Reading is thus an interactive process between the text and the reader.
Module 1 Block 1 7
The PISA definition of reading literacy
"Reading literacy is understanding, using, and reflecting on written texts, in order to achieve one’s goals, to develop one’s knowledge and potential, and to participate in society.“
(OECD 2002: 25)
PISA defines reading literacy as „active engagement with written texts. [...] In the psychological literature about text comprehension, there is a general consensus that the reader has to construct meaning in written texts. Reading is not a passive reception of what is in the text, but it is an active (re-)construction of text meaning. The written information are connected to the knowledge of the reader. Thus, dealing with written texts can be seen as an act of generating meaning by which the previous knowledge of the reader and the text itself interact.“
(Artelt/ Stanat/ Schneider/ Schiefele 2001: 70f.)

PARTICIPANT ACTIVITY
Do you have similar experiences about the reading problems of your students in your content area (or of the participants in your teacher-training courses) as you have learned from the Hungarian study just presented?
Assignment: How do the reading and comprehension problems of your students – from the first encounter with the text until the successful completion of tasks – become manifest in your daily classroom practice? Please describe your observations in refering to the four levels of the Hungarian study / the model shown on slide No 7.
Please write down your observations and reflections on 1 – 2 pages and post them in the forum, which will be initiated for this assignment by your trainers. Please read the postings of your colleagues and comment on at least two of them.
