"Making Meaning is designed for college students reading at the fourth- to sixth-grade level and was developed in response to the growing need emerging in technical schools, two-year colleges, and some four-year institutions for a course that accommodates students needing the most basic reading instruction. It seeks to help adult learners acquire the critical thinking and writing skills that will enable them to effectively read, process, analyze, and learn information on their own. Making Meaning teaches reading as a way for students to investigate, understand, and respond to the world by including readings, exercises, and activities that are relevant to adult learners. In addition, the book makes explicit how developing effective reading skills will benefit students in their daily lives."--Preface.
