College Reading 1

Catalog description

This course provides instruction in basic comprehension and vocabulary skills. Students develop awareness of themselves as readers by employing metacognitive strategies. Additionally, students learn to identify and utilize organizational patterns and apply critical reading skills in making judgments about texts. CRE 070 will normally be followed by CRE 103 unless the student’s progress has been so accelerated in CRE 070 that the department advises against a subsequent course. Students must earn a “C” grade or better to register for the next course in this discipline or to use this course as a prerequisite for a course in another discipline.
