Make Connections To Prior Knowledge (Pg. 5)

# data[].attributes.body
"Reading comprehension results when readers can match what they already know (their

schema) with new information and ideas in a text. Proficient readers activate prior knowledge

before, during, and after reading, and they constantly evaluate how a text enhances or alters

their previous understandings."

"Comprehension is, to a significant degree, a process of inquiry. Proficient readers pose questions to themselves as they read. Asking questions is the art of carrying on an inner

conversation with an author, as well as an internal dialogue within one’s self."

Visualize and Create Sensory Mental Images (Pg. 5)

# data[].attributes.body
"Comprehension involves breathing life experiences into the abstract language of written texts. Proficient readers use visual, auditory, and other sensory connections to create mental images of an author’s message."

"Much of what is to be understood in a text must be inferred. Authors rely on readers to contribute to a text’s meaning by linking their background knowledge to information in the text.

In addition to acknowledging explicitly stated messages, proficient readers read between the lines to discern implicit meanings, make predictions, and read with a critical eye."

"Our memories quickly overload unless we can pare down a text to its essential ideas. Texts contain key ideas and concepts amidst much background detail. Proficient readers strive to differentiate key ideas, themes, and information from details so that they are not overwhelmed by facts."

"Proficient readers glean the essence of a text (determine importance) and organize these ideas into coherent summaries of meaning. Effective comprehension leads to new learning and the development of new schema (background knowledge). Proficient readers make evaluations, construct generalizations, and draw conclusions from a text."

Two Types of Articles (Practical and Theoretical) Those two are read differently

Two Types of Articles (Practical and Theoretical) Those two are read differently

Skim both of the articles to find out where the article is headed. Finding out the general idea of the article is big because in a lot of math articles, formulas take up a lot of the space. It also makes the "heavy technical" stuff in the article easier to understand if you know the general idea.

Practical is said to be better because it is for the more everyday type of casual math person. The article states that Theoretical math is more for the "hardcore math stat geeks" (Pg. 20).

"The formula makes use of PEMDAS, the order of operations. PEMDAS stands for parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction. And so, we can read this, which is a score, minus the mean to get the difference. So literacy is indeed involved in math. Students may disagree at first, but my insistence is that it absolutely is-- because it's shorthand, the same now as "LOL" or "LMAO" when texting.

These two articles are talking to each other. They are not discussing the same thing, but they are approaching these situations in the same way. Article 1, first thing it highlights is "Making Connections To Prior Knowledge". Article 2, first thing it highlights is skimming articles to find the general meaning of the articles. These two statements from the articles are different words, but they mean the exact same thing.

You asked us to describe this as a conversation between both articles. The best way I can see this is the two articles being the type of people that are arguing for the same thing with very different points. The way that they approach the argument is so different that they think the opposition disagrees, but little do they know, they are arguing for the same side. We all know these people who do this. Everyone has two people in their friend group that always do this. It is annoying. But it being annoying does not matter, what matters is when they both realize what the other one is talking about. These articles skipped the annoying part of the process and made it very easy for us to connect the two articles with their approaches to an article or a reading.

There are a lot of main points I thought were important in the first articles, and that is why I put them down. But I feel some of those are actually second nature to most readers. By that, I mean, readers do some of those things without even thinking about it. But the one I would like to highlight is "Determine Importance". I believe this best talks to the "Which is Better" section of the 2nd reading. In the first reading, it is talking about determining the importance in the reading. But in the second reading, it is talking about determining the importance of which type of article to read. I think these are good because in the general sense of reading and article, you need to find the importance inside of them just like the book says, but when you look at it from a math perspective, it is way more important at what way you are viewing the article. Both are just as important as the other, it is just very different when you look at it under a microscope. In this case, the microscope is a math microscope.
