Introduce students to critical reading skills to support their ability to complete the readings and extract important topics and ideas. Have students practice critical reading skills: 1) identify key elements of a text, 2) reflect on how methods, structure, and presentation impact their reception of a text’s arguments, and 3) become more comfortable sharing their experiences with each other and considering how and why different people have different reactions to the same text.
