This book addresses basic issues in language education and explores
how reading, with a focus on meaning, contributes to the
development of all aspects of language including vocabulary,
spelling, grammar, and syntax. It departs from traditional methods
and practices in language learning to investigate the potency of
reading in improving language acquisition. The traditional practice
in language classes to teach language skills explicitly through
acquiring forms and structures of language is often less than
successful, and teachers are gradually incorporating reading
materials and practices into the curriculum. This book provides
important inputs to language teachers and educators on the need to
include reading as an idea and as a practice into the curriculum.
Among other things, it explores the benefits of incidental learning
of language properties such as vocabulary, syntax and grammar and
gives adequate exposure to different types of reading strategies to
promote reading among learners. It also exploits the possible
transfer of L1 reading strategies and capabilities to L2 reading
for language acquisition. In so doing, this book hopes to promote
autonomous learning among L2 learners and guide readers in
alternative strategies to solve comprehension problems.
