All of us know who the reluctant readers are. They come to class unprepared. They do not respond to questions asked about assigned readings. When in groups, they contribute little, and when asked directly, “Did you do the reading?” they respond negatively. The strategies presented in this article are geared to help these reluctant readers. We have used them in several of our classes, and students have found that the strategies helped them retain information and increase their success in class.
