Personal Reading Experience

Personal Reading Process

Part 1: Personal Reading Experience (225 to 300 words)

Answer the following questions. Remember the point is not to be right or wrong, but to look at your current reading habits so you can figure out what’s working, what isn’t, and what you can do to improve your habits and strategies.

Describe your experience with learning to read. Do you remember when you first learned to read? What was that experience like? As you’ve gotten older, has reading been easy or difficult for you?

Develop examples of how you prepare to read. Do you take any special steps or do you dive in? Does it depend on what or why you are reading?

Discuss your college-level reading experience thus far. Do you embrace it or avoid it? Do you skim or skip sections? Do you skip reading altogether?

Part 2: Reading on Screens (Three paragraphs, 300 to 450 words)

Prior to beginning work on this section, read the articles The Reading Brain in the Digital Age: The Science of Paper versus Screens (Links to an external site.) and Is Google Making Us Stupid? What the Internet Is Doing to Our Brains (Links to an external site.).  Consider the information in the two articles and address the following:

Describe your reaction to the articles. What do you agree with and why? What do you disagree with and why?

Compare your experience to the information shared in the articles. How have your experiences been similar or different?

Explain the impact you think this will have on your reading in college and why academic assignments typically have formatting requirements.

For this assignment, it is suggested that your work is double spaced and written using Times New Roman 12-point font. Submit the final draft to Waypoint as a Microsoft Word document.

Carefully review your essay before you submit and consider these questions:

Did you write at least six paragraphs? Each bullet point should be covered by one paragraph of writing.

Did you answer the questions in every bullet, as specified in the assignment instructions? Paragraphs are typically a minimum of four sentences.

Was each paragraph organized to effectively cover what was asked for in the instructions?

Did you double-check the spelling, grammar, punctuation, and organization? Grammarly is a great tool to help with this!
