Paul and Elder outline the relationship between critical thinking and reading, emphasizing that many college students lack the intellectual tools to comprehend what they read and need to \u201cget beyond impressionist reading\u201d (36). The skills addressed include: Paraphrasing, Explicating the Thesis, Analyzing the Logic, \u00a0and Evaluating or Assessing the Logic (Paul and Elder 36). Likewise, Leist, Woolwine, and Bays devised a rubric to assess college student reading skills and categories included Accuracy, Clarity, Precision, Depth, Relevance and Logic (40). \u00a0Our group attempted to simplify these topics into four quadrants on our reading template, and all of these we hoped would lead to student success in reading objectively and identifying an author\u2019s thesis (<\/span>see Artifact 1 Reading Template<\/a><\/span>). \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" What scholarship (articles, books, reports) did you consult and how did it inform your project?
