About this title

Synopsis

Due to the limited access to oral sources of language input, reading is amongst the most important skills in EFL contexts. At the same time, success in reading comprehension is heavily dependent on the development of vocabulary knowledge. The above variables have attracted the attention of a large number of researchers in recent years, and a number of factors have been found to influence reading and vocabulary knowledge. This book includes a theoretical review and an empirical analysis of scaffolding as well as collaborative techniques affecting reading comprehension and vocabulary learning. English language learners, teachers, and researchers may find this book useful.
