2.2.1 Definition of Reading Strategies
Drawing on works in cognitive psychology, strategies are defined as learning techniques, behaviors,
problem-solving or study skills which make learning moreeffective and efficient (Oxford & Crookall, 1989). In
the context of reading, reading strategies indicate how readers conceive a task, what textual cues they attend to,
how they make sense of what they read, and what theydo when they do not understand (Block, 1986). Reading
strategies refer to "the mental operations involved whenreaders purposefullyapproach a text and make sense of
what they read" (Barnett, 1988)
In short, reading strategies are deliberate, conscious techniques that readers employ to enhance their
comprehension or retention of the textual information. Specifically they have the following
characteristics:(1)deliberate, conscious plans, techniques and skills; (2) aiming to enhance reading
comprehension and overcome comprehension failures; and (3) behavioral and mental. They are of interest for
what they reveal about the way readers manage their interaction with the written text and how these strategies
are related to text comprehension (Carrell, 1989).
