         <description><![CDATA[<div>Metacognitive knowledge refers to the general assumptions that students hold about themselves as learners, about factors influencing language learning and about the nature of language learning and teaching. Only recently has metacognitive knowledge begun to receive attention in second language research, successful learners develop insightful beliefs about language learning processes, their own abilities and the use of effective strategies that may compensate for possible weaknesses, students tend to develop a more active, and thus, autonomous attitude that allows them to take charge of their learning whatever the situation may be.<br><br>Carrell's (1989a) study focuses the metacognitive awareness of second language readers about reading strategies in both their first and second language, and investigates the relationship between their metacognitive awareness and their comprehension in both first and second language reading, Global strategies have to do with use of background knowledge, reading for the text gist and use of textual organization, whereas local strategies are those relating to sound-letter, word-meaning and sentence syntax, Carrell's study this preference varied according to whether the subjects were reading in a first or in a second language. For reading in the first language, readers tended to prefer global strategies and local reading strategies tended to be negatively correlated with reading performance.<br><br><br><br> <br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Effective reading is essential for success in acquiring a second language.  After all, reading is the basis of instruction in all aspects of language learning: using textbooks for language courses, writing, revising, developing vocabulary, acquiring grammar, editing, and using computer-assisted language learning programs.  Reading instruction, therefore, is an essential component of every second-language curriculum.  Understanding some important facts about reading, literacy, and teaching methods is essential for providing effective instruction in reading. What is reading? Reading is a conscious and unconscious thinking process.  The reader applies many strategies to reconstruct the meaning that the author is assumed to have intended, when the reader focuses primarily on what he or she already knows, this is called a concept-driven or “top-down” mode, what is literacy? Literacy is a set of attitudes and beliefs about the ways of using spoken and written language that are acquired in the course of a person’s socialization into a specific cultural context, teachers cannot assume that students who are good readers in their native language can simply apply successfully the same skills to reading in English.<br><br><br><br>Teaching Reading: Applying Theory and Research to Practice reading instruction needs to be based on training ESL and EFL students in new ways of talking and thinking about texts.  In teaching reading, instructors need to take into account the following conclusions and recommendations of educational researchers. When students read, they need to do: -Talk about their reading, and explain how they make sense of a text - Break the habit of reading every word by reading faster - Master the basic 2,000 words that constitute approximately 80 percent of texts in English. Extensive reading: Extensive reading is a highly individualized approach to reading improvement.  Students select their own books and read at their own pace, Day and Bamford (1998) have documented the benefits of extensive reading, which include: -Development of a positive attitude toward reading in a second language, Motivation to read more, Increased reading fluency, Gains in vocabulary and grammar knowledge, Improvement in writing in the second language.<br><br><br><br>Reading skills reading skills are the cognitive processes that a reader uses in making sense of a text. Reading skills: 1. Automatic decoding.  Being able to recognize a word at a glance. 2. Previewing and predicting.  Giving the text a quick once-over to be able to guess what is to come. 3.  Specifying purpose.  Knowing why a text is being read. 4.  Identifying genre.  Knowing the nature of the text in order to predict the form and content. 5. Questioning.  Asking questions in an inner dialog with the author. 6.  Scanning.  Looking through a text very rapidly for specific information. 7.  Recognizing topics.  Finding out what the text is about. An approach to teaching reading skills 1.  Focus on one skill at a time. 2.  Explain the purpose of working on this skill, and convince the students of its importance in reading effectively. 3.  Work on an example of using the skill with the whole class.  Explain your thinking aloud as you do the exercise. Reading Fluency Reading fluency can be defined as reading fast with good comprehension and adjusting the reading rate to suit the purpose for reading. Fluency training should include:<br><br><br> Practice with timed reading passages followed by comprehension questions. Lessons in such skills as scanning and skimming that help students learn how to move their eyes quickly and purposefully over a text. Opportunities for large quantities of extensive reading. Vocabulary development Reading comprehension depends on vocabulary knowledge and vice versa. They can teach students how to: Study and learn words effectively.   Choose new words they want to learn. Use a dictionary. <br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>One of the best ways for this teaching is the playful methodology since it allows children to adopt a second language more easily, as it is well said at this stage children are easier to stimulate since they are in full development and understand with words are easier, whether through books, stories or learning the alphabet in a more fun way, that makes teaching more fun which helps children become more interested in learning a second language.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Children, when reading, construct their own meaning prior knowledge should be looked at in two ways by the teacher when developing lessons: first, as overall prior knowledge, and second, as specific prior knowledge. Overall prior knowledge is expanded continually by a variety of means that include extensive reading and writing, the more students read and write, the more their prior knowledge grows, which, in turn, strengthens their ability to construct meaning as they read. Effective reading instruction can develop engaged readers who are knowledgeable, strategic, 2 motivated, and socially interactive the context of literacy instruction and personal attributes in addition to cognitive development influence children’s reading success in profound ways, therefore, when planning instruction, teachers must make provisions in daily lessons for factors such as students’ motivation to read. Engaged reading develops in literacy classrooms where self-assessment and mutual assessment are as routine as they are in everyday life. Phonemic awareness, a precursor to competency in identifying words, is one of the best predictors of later success in reading phonemic awareness— discerning that spoken language is composed of phonemes—is an important predictor of success in learning to read, Studies of young children show that the most important precursor to success in learning to read is rapid recognition of the letters of the alphabet. <br><br><br><br>Modeling is an important form of classroom support 4 for literacy learning Teacher modeling, a form of scaffolding, is a way of showing students how to approach a task such as finding the main idea of a story, two types of explicit modeling are talk-alouds and think-alouds. In a talk-aloud activity, the teacher gives students a series of steps they must follow to complete a task and then asks questions to guide students through the task from beginning to end. Storybook reading, done in the context of sharing experiences, ideas, and opinions, is a highly demanding 5 mental activity for children using interactive strategies such as story-based discussions along with storybook reading helps children construct meaning and understand stories that are read to them, Children’s stories, both oral and written, have been the subject of important research on the development of children’s ability to construct coherent text. As children hear stories told and read, they learn the structure as well as the linguistic features of stories or narrative text. Responding to literature helps students to construct their own meaning, which may not always be the same 6 for all readers responding is a natural part of the reading process. When students read a piece of literature, they respond to it by using their prior knowledge to construct meaning, teachers expect students to give commonly accepted responses as well as more personal responses that differ from student to student for any given piece of literature. And within the bounds of commonly accepted responses, there are often a variety of interpretations.<br><br><br><br>Children who engage in daily discussions about what they read are more likely to become 7 critical readers and learners children who engage in daily discussions about what they read are more likely to become 7 critical readers and learners, using discussion to connect literature and other texts with a variety of experiences and the prior knowledge of the reader maximizes students’ learning, given that they critically discuss topics worth talking about, given the importance of discussion for effective learning, effective teaching involves providing students with ample opportunities to engage in daily discussions with one another. Expert readers have strategies that they use to construct meaning 8 before, during, and after reading as students become proficient readers, they develop a set of plans or strategies for solving problems they encounter in their reading experiences, Inferencing is the process of reaching conclusions based on information within the text and is the cornerstone of constructing meaning, inferencing includes making predictions using prior knowledge combined with information available from text, monitoring is a metacognitive or self-awareness process that expert constructors of meaning use to help themselves overcome problems as they read. Children’s reading and writing abilities develop together a similar, if not the same, level of intellectual activity underlies both reading and writing: interactions between the reader/writer and text lead to new knowledge and interpretations of text, the process of reading and writing not only unfold in similar ways, but they also tend to be used together. This is natural because in everyday life reading and writing frequently occur together, Teachers can be most effective in helping students to become better readers, writers, and thinkers when they weave integrated reading and writing activities into their literacy instruction. The most valuable form of reading assessment reflects our current understanding about the reading process and simulates authentic reading tasks now it is known that the whole act of reading is greater than the sum of its parts (i.e., isolated skills) moreover, these parts are interrelated within a literacy context and do not always develop in a hierarchical way, the role of standardized tests in the literacy program is likely to remain important. Because state and local school districts are likely to continue using norm-referenced, standardized tests to evaluate literacy programs, state tests and the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) are undergoing substantial changes. <br><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>When children read, they create similarities with the things they see so that they become familiar and it is easier for them to acquire new knowledge and acquire a meaning proper to things. People develop new knowledge when they read, which allows them to be more committed and acquire new knowledge, and this also allows them to socialize and have new reading strategies. In the case of phonetics, it helps us to identify sounds that are similar but have different meanings, for example when children learn a second language, phonetics allows them to know how to differentiate sounds.</div>]]></description>

         <title>THE IMPACT OF COMPUTER USE ON LITERACY READING COMPREHENSION AND VOCABULARY SKILLS </title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Purpose of the Study Purpose of the Study The main focus of the study stemmed from personal observation over years as a classroom teacher in the area of computer studies, A literature review was carried out to investigate perspectives regarding the extent of computer use and the adequacy of literacy skills. There has been considerable disagreement on issues concerning the scale and pace of change that is likely to be associated with increased use of computers at home as well as in the education system. Defining Language and Computer Literacies Computer literacy is more apparent in contemporary society, the acquisition of computer skills is as important as language literacy to parents, students, scholars, educators and industry, the distinction between the two is that computer literacy involves physical use of equipment (peripherals and software applications) and language literacy is a broad term used to indicate the importance and minimum ability of individuals to read and write in a designated language used in everyday life. In current usage, the term [language literacy] implies an interaction between social demands and individual competence. <br><br><br><br>Language Literacy and the Impact of Computer Literacy Many groups in our society, such as parents and employers, have expressed their concerns about the importance of introducing computer literacy within the education system, argued that by ‘technologizing,’ schools are emphasising computer-pupil interactions that are often characterising as progressive, exploratory and child-centred. However, this may paradoxically distance and isolate the child from adequately developing language literacy in order to fully function in a social setting. Research Methodology the research and data gathering for this study was based on ethnographic research. The word ethnography literally means ‘writing about people.’ In a broad sense, ‘ethnography encompasses any study of a group of people for the purpose of describing their socio-cultural activities and patterns.’ The first technique of data collection involved participant observation and note taking. This was done in the English classes away from computer equipment. During the fieldwork, the students felt comfortable participating in the study with an investigator that they knew rather than a total stranger. The second ethnographic technique was to interview the students (participants), Throughout the study, a triangulation technique was also used to improve the validity of the data collected. A parents’ survey was also conducted to validate further the data provided by the students.<br><br><br><br> Results of the Study The students’ interviews revealed that 92% of students had access at home to a personal computer, no comparison was made between students who had home access to computers and those who did not, all students had access to school computers and to their friends’ computers when they were not at school, their use of computers has not been counter-productive in areas where basic learning skills should be developing, the parents were asked whether their children’s use of computers was hindering or enhancing their reading comprehension and vocabulary skills. Some teachers are also finding their students are reading less than they used to. The students are more interested in playing games. One particular teacher commented when I take them to the library for a research project, the students’ preference is to use the computers rather than reading books.<br><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Computers have come to facilitate learning in most students, before students did their research through books and looked for unknown words in dictionaries, with new technologies teaching was facilitated since now students learn using web tools that allow them to investigate in a faster way, for example they acquire knowledge of a second language through videos, virtual encyclopedias and courses that allow them to stimulate their vocabulary. At the same time, the computer allows the student to prepare for a future where technology will be more advanced and which will be of utmost importance in order to carry out any type of activity.<br><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><br><br><br>In reality, children are much more invincible and able to recover from challenges when caring adults intentionally reduce the risk factors in their environment and provide protective factors to stop problems before they start. Defining resilience Children who most often are able to cope and bounce back after loss and separation seem to have a resilient core and high amounts of self-efficacy or enoughness, using children’s literature, caregivers can help children bounce back by intentionally placing resilience-building experiences and skills in the curriculum that serve as protective factors. Let us explore protective factors that can be fostered through the use of children’s books. Protective factors and children’s literature Children’s literature has long been used to teach concepts. Stories are beneficial because they assist us in bringing attention to the challenges that young children face while providing ways to cope or even overcome them, helping children to become more resilient may be the most important thing that caregivers can do in providing a buffer against emotional hardships. Guide for selecting books to foster resilience Acquiring books to foster resilience is easy, and many that you already have on your bookshelf can be used.<br> For optimum experience, choose books that have the following attributes: Problem-solving messages Look for books with problems to solve or overcome rather than those that are more for entertainment purposes. Appeal books must appeal to children as a first criterion, or any concepts that you hope to foster may be lost. Which books do children ask for again and again? These may have storylines that can be enhanced to foster resilience. Developmental value chooses books that are age and stage appropriate for children. Children in my care often brought books to the program from home that were for older siblings. Children’s books and resilience activities Although we can’t prevent adversity or unpleasant experiences from happening to children, we can minimize the distress they feel by teaching them a vocabulary of emotions with the use of children’s books, Some books may allude to more than one protective factor, but for simplicity only one factor appears for each book, they are examples of how books can anchor discussions about resilience. Examples of activities that use open-ended, interactive discussions accompany each book. Helping Have the children think of times when they have been stuck or placed in a situation where they could not do something without the help of others. <br><br><br><br>Coping and patience develop coping skills when children are separated from someone, they love by showing them that even though they are separated, they can still be connected by an invisible string, children can also learn ways to develop or practice patience as they wait for a loved one to return. Problem solving rather than reading the book once and putting it away, use it more than once to as you lead a discussion about all kinds of adversity and how people can join together to work through a difficult time, children overcome fear by thinking of five activities to do without electricity, or by thinking: “How did people long ago get by without electricity”?. Responsibilities and jobs Talk about the responsibilities that we have to and for one another. Are there pets in the classroom? Can children with younger siblings help their parents with tasks as simple as getting the baby’s clean diaper? Feeling needed within a larger group is a big protective factor in children, and our classrooms are a perfect place to foster responsibility. Choices and decision making Don’t Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus by Mo Willems (2003) is a lively story about a bus driver who steps away from his bus and tells the audience (us) not to let the lurking pigeon drive, Open-ended questions to ask include the following: “Why can’t we let the pigeon drive the bus?” “What would happen if we let a bird drive a bus?” “What happens when we don’t follow directions?” accept all answers and discuss good choices and decisions. Structure and rules Discuss the importance of having rules and why we need them. Have the children copy the actions of the dinosaurs and the reactions of their parents, talk about a better way to prepare for bed or any other activity that children may not want to do, rather than “stomping and slamming his tail and pout!” Help them find humor in doing the things that are challenging for us. <br><br><br><br> <br><br><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Resilience is the capacity that all human beings have to face the problems that are presented to us, children as we well know are very sensitive to this type of problem one of the best ways to prepare children for this type of situation is Through fun activities in which they put more interest in participating and learning, stories with educational messages is a way in which they learn to face any problem, for example stories that leave messages such as making new friends or teaching them to share with others.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>All these articles are spectacular and very useful, as future teachers will help us develop our classes in a more effective and fun way. These articles are approach in teaching and learning to reading,about strategies and advices to engage students in reading and the way we acquire knowledge with the main objective  that the students acquire the habit of reading.<br><br> Put in practice these  strategies have many benefits because the  students develop the reading  ,  skills, reading skills include vocabulary acquisition, pre-reading strategies, textual comprehension, organizational skills and response techniques.<br><br>Also develop the  reading knowledge gives students something to think about, and  shows that knowledge does much more than just help students hone their thinking skills.<br><br>Another important point of these articles is about how computers have come to harm reading since we prefer to spend and waste time on social networks that take time to read a book.<br><br><br><br></div>]]></description>
