Summer Reading Programs for Adults, College Students, and Entering High School Seniors

Select a different age group:

In this program, you'll learn an active, critical approach to reading.

As a result, you'll get more out of your reading than ever before:

  • Gain more satisfaction from your reading. When you actively engage with the ideas in a book, you approach reading as a conversation with the author: you don't just passively take in information, but you bring your own ideas and opinions to bear.
  • Achieve a greater depth of understanding in any material.
  • Reread less. When you have full understanding of the material, you retain information longer. You'll no longer lose valuable time to unnecessary rereading.

You'll learn analytical reading techniques that help you mentally organize information and engage critically with what you read. Previewing techniques will help you identify what information is important and what's not, based on your purposes as a reader. You'll also learn the most effective ways to take notes.

In class, you'll apply these comprehension techniques while reading and discussing highly engaging books and other reading materials. Your teacher will work with you to help you successfully adapt the techniques to any kind of material in any situation.
