Description
Summary:Reading is one of the most challenging fields in the educational system. Reading comprehension is an interactive process of deriving meaning from a text that involves the interaction of different variables (reader, text, environment). It is considered a complex of cognitive activities that includes many skills and dimensions such as word perception, clear understanding, meaning, reflection, reaction, and integration. Teachers can assist students in improving comprehension by teaching them reading strategies—various methods that are consciously and intentionally applied to manage their interaction with the written text. The aim of this paper is to investigate whether teachers of the Croatian language apply reading strategies in their teaching and whether they teach them to their students. The results have showcased that the students who apply and combine reading strategies are more active, engaged, and satisfied readers.
