- Preface – “Critical” is not intended to have a negative meaning in the context of “critical reading.”
- Defnition: An active approach to reading that involves an in depth examination of the text. Memorization and understanding of the text is achieved. Additionally, the text is broken down into its components and examined critically in order to achieve a meaningful understanding of the material.
- Passive Reading: - (4 traits) • 1. Largely inactive process.
- 2. Low motivation to examine the text critically or at an in-depth level.
- 3. Important pieces of data and assumptions may be glossed over and missed.
- 4. Data and assumptions that are perceived by the passive reader are accepted at face value or are examined superfcially, with little thought.
- Active Reading: - Active reading involves interacting with the text and therefore requires signifcantly more energy than passive reading.
- Critical reading ALWAYS involves active reading.
- The active reader identifes important pieces of
data, the assumptions underlying arguments, and
examines them critically. They rely on their personal experiences and knowledge of theory to analyze the text. - To the critical reader, any single text
provides but one portrayal of the facts, one
individual’s “take” on the subject matter. Critical readers thus recognize not only what a text says, but also how the author convey the message. - – Content: e.g., evidence, examples, details
- – Language: e.g., “politicians” or
- – Structure:e.g., comparison/contrast,
- attempts to understand and analyse the reasoning in the text
- evaluates the evidence ofered
- recognises assumptions
- takes a challenging and questioning attitude towards the text
- accept the authority of the text without question
- take a passive and purely receptive role towards the text
- ‘write of’ the text immediately if the writer’s meaning is not immediately clear
• quickly dismiss the text because the
views do not match his/her own- reading the instructions to set the thermostat on your
- heating boiler
- reading a local newspaper report about an attack on an Asian shopkeeper
- reading a primary school prospectus for your child
- reading a course outline
- reading descriptions of 2 sofas in diferent furniture catalogues
- fnding out the train times on a website
- it’s about asking questions about the text: its purpose, the claims made and the evidence presented.
- Can I believe everything I read?
- Are experts always right?
- What makes me take more notice of one academic writer and less of another?
- What makes a scholarly, rigorous piece of research, and what makes research fndings weak or strong?
- Who is the writer writing for?
- Who is the publisher?
- Is it in the interests of the author/publisher to make a particular claim?
- Which sources has the writer cited?
- What sort of adjectives are used?
- How does the writer rely on authority?
- What does the writer present as fact?
- How does the writer select evidence?
• Understanding the way a passage is organized
may help you determine the author’s purpose.- Consider the italicized introduction, the main idea, and the tone; by examining them together, you may discover what the author’s purpose is.
- Think about what point the writer is making, how he or she organizes ideas, and the words used, which will reveal tone (attitude/possible feelings).
- Tone is often described as the way an author feels about both the topic and the reader.
- The tone in a selection can be formal, casual, playful, serious, sarcastic, or any other attitude one can imagine.
- Connotative and denotative language is a very useful tool for expressing attitude and tone.
- Writers use words on purpose to create a desired efect.
• Some of the passages are short, some are long,
and some are paired.– If you take the time to read a long passage, try to
answer all the questions for that passage. (Time
management!)- – It may be easier to preview the questions when
approaching a shorter question because you will
hopefully recognize the answer quickly. - – When given two passages together, try this strategy:
• Then, read the second passage, and answer the remaining
• Read the frst passage, and answer the questions for that passage. • Preview the questions might help as well! and some of which will deal with both passages. questions, some of which will deal strictly with the second passage - Always annotate the text:
- – Circle tone words
- – Underline important details
- – Note transitional phrases/words
- – Circle defnitions provided
- – Write summary phrases after each paragraph
- Non-critical reading is satisfed with recognizing what a text says and restating the key remarks.
- He owns a gun.
- He is married.
- His wife is dead.
- That gun caused her death.
• The Senator admitted owning that gun.
- We do not necessarily know Senator's admission is true.
- We do not really know
- We do not even know
- A critical reader know what to look for
- The frst part — involves recognizing those aspects
- The second part —
• Poor performance on legal writing assignments –
critical reading ability infuences analytic, critical thinking, problem solving, and writing skills- Poor performance on traditional multiple choice questions
- Poor performance on analytical examination questions
- • Determine why material is being read -What is the purpose of the material within the class or subject being approached? • Use other parts of reading material to determine context (table of contents, chapter headings, defnitions for unknown words)
- What are the claims and

- Is
- L
- E
- Do facts support the argument?
- A
- Is analysis sound and based on legal ebut
- R
- Are there counter- arguments and counter- evidence?
- Form meaningful expectations about the reading.
- Pace yourself – decide how much time you will dedicate to the reading.
- Skimming.
- – Look for Title, Section Headings, Date – Expectations about the Author (previous works)
- – Defne the important vocabulary words
- – Brief summaries of chapters
- – The goal is to obtain a general grasp of the text
- Mark, highlight, or underline parts of the text that you think are very important.
- On a separate piece of paper, divide your page into two columns.
- Label one column “text” (meaning from your reading) and the other “response” (meaning your response).
- Write down a part of the text you think is important in the “text” column and then write a reaction to it in the other column.
- On a separate piece(s) of paper or in your reading journal, dedicate an adequate amount of space to an article, book, chapter, etc, you are reading.
- Highlight, mark, or underline a critical part in your reading. In the margin, indicate that you are going to write a footnote. For example, write a 1 or a (or whatever you want).
- In your reading journal, write a ‘1’ or ‘a’
- In addition to the other uses described above,
use the reading journal to track what you are
reading and to form critical responses to - Try to summarize the entire article, describe the main points, defne key terms, and express your reactions.
- Remember, do NOT refer back to the text until you absolutely have to! Give your memory a
- Also, put concepts into your own words.
- A general rule is 3-5 pages of notes per 100
- Two ways to write while reading online documents…
- For example…
- Read in an environment where you will be free from distractions.
- Read steadily and smoothly. Try to enjoy the work.
- Write notes, but do so sparingly.
- What works best for you?
- We suggest avoiding your cell phone, television, computer, and most music (besides instrumental).
- Re-read the material more slowly than during your frst read.
- The two most important objectives are:
- Summarization: Pull out the main points of the text and write them down.
- The summary’s complexity and length will vary according to the complexity and length of the text you have read!
- Analysis • Interpretation • Synthesis • In forming your critical response, you will now go beyond what the author has explicitly written to form your impressions of the text.
- Analysis is the separation of something into its parts or elements, which helps to examine them more closely.
- To analyze reading, you can take at least these two approaches:
- Claims: Statements that require support by evidence.
- Assumptions: The writer’s underlying beliefs, opinions, principles, or inferences that connect evidence to the claims.
- Types of evidence – Facts: Verifable evidence.
- – Opinion: Judgments based upon facts.
- – Expert Opinion: Judgments formed by authorities on a given subject.
- – Appeal to Beliefs or Needs: Readers are asked to accept a claim in part because they already accept it as true WITHOUT factual evidence or because it coincides with their needs.
- – Appeal to Emotion: A claim that is persuasive because it evokes an emotion within the reader, but may or may not rely on factual evidence.
- To judge the reliability of evidence, look at the following areas:
- – Accuracy – Relevance – Representativeness – Adequacy
- Examples:
- – Red herring-introduction of an irrelevant issue in an argument.
- – Non sequitur- linking two or more ideas that have no logical connection.
- – Making broad generalizations without proven empirical evidence.
- Learn to identify logical fallacies by visiting:
- After breaking down the text into its components and examining them, ask yourself about the conclusions you can draw from this evidence.
- What claims does the author make?
- What evidence supports these claims?
- Can you infer anything beyond what the author has explicitly written that either strengthens or weakens the claims made by the author?
- See Critical Reading Checklist Handout
- Now that you have broken down the text into its parts, analyzed them, and interpreted it all, you should make new connections with what you know.
- Ask yourself again: What are the main points of this text? Were my expectations for this article met? If I “read in between the lines” do I learn anything else about what the author is saying? Overall, what can I conclude from this text?
- By this point, you will have everything you need to create a critical response.
- Start early. Give yourself enough time.
- Understand the assignment requirements.
- Know the material.
- Choose a topic that interests you & has potential future value.
- Make sure the topic is relevant and researchable (appropriate available research).
- Develop a controlling idea that is congruent with your angle on a topic or
• Developing an angle and establishing a
controlling idea is important for every type of paper.- Be as specifc as possible.
- Use it to focus & direct the paper.
• Make a statement instead of a question
- State a point that you can further develop, explain, or substantiate.
- Outline: Intro, body, conclusion
- Brainstorm: Write down points & ideas you have regarding your topic.
- Find relevant research & writing regarding your topic and highlight important quotations.
- Start writing & organize it later.
- Rough Draft • Final Draft • Edit • Edit Again • If you need assistance you can bring your paper to the Academic Support Center (room 631) for review.

Critical Reading
reading: a differentiated practice No text is neutral. All texts position readers to accept certain views of the world. Readers, however, have the reciprocal power to counter that positioning.1. Dominant: reading in agreement with the text.
2. Alternative: reading in mild disagreement across the text.
3. Resistant: reading in opposition to the text. Johnson (2001) & Moon (2001)

So all texts, to a certain extent, require critical reading. It is not about criticising everything you read
Some questions to think about when surveying a text
Some questions you can use to Does this follow? How do you know? interrogate the text… Is this a fact or an opinion? Who exactly said this and when? Where is your evidence? Where can I check this out? Are you assuming x is true here? Why? Why not? What exactly? What’s been missed out?
Interacting with the text
You don’t have to fully agree or disagree with what the writer is saying but you can raise questions about the claims that s/he makes based on the evidence there is to support you. Part 2.1. Goals of Critical Reading
Goals of Critical Reading 1.to recognize an author’s purpose 2.to understand tone and persuasive elements 3.to recognize bias
More specifcally;
1. recognizing purpose involves inferring a basis for choices of content and language
2. recognizing tone and persuasive
elements involves classifying the nature of language choices 3. recognizing bias involves classifying the nature of patterns of choice of content and language

Author’s Purpose
!
On Recognizing Attitude, Mood, and Tone
1. The terms attitude, mood, and tone often refer to the author’s slant on a subject, or the author’s emotions or feelings.
2. Attitude and tone are related in that the tone of a selection often refects his or her attitude.
3. Think about how “tone of voice” refects feelings and attitude.
Tone
Helpful Hints
Pay attention to the author’s choice of details. The
author has a purpose, and the reader must determine what that purpose is. The author’s purpose can be found in the choice of details which reveal attitude or tone.
In order to fully understand author’s purpose, it is
important for the reader to recognizing the detailsprovided by the choice of words the author uses.
As stated before, purpose and tone are closely related, so if you immediately recognize theauthor’s purpose, you may easily identify his/her
tone.Typical Attitude, Mood, and Tone Questions:
1. What is the author’s attitude about this subject?
2. Which description best portrays the author’s feelings?
3. Which of these words adds to the mood (tone/attitude) of the selection?
4. What is the author’s overall tone in the last paragraph?
A few more important notes about
Critical Reading Questions
One Last Thing…
On Recognizing Bias
Good critical readers must be aware of their own biases and the biases of others.
A bias is a strong leaning in either a positive or negative direction.
A bias is very similar to a prejudice.
Sometimes writers simply state their biases; however, most biases are implied by the writer. Subjective material generally places more emphasis on opinions than facts, and it is more likely to display a strong bias.
A critical reader will study the author’s line of reasoning, notice whether opinions are supported by facts and reasons, and then decide if the author’s bias has hindered the making of a good argument.
As you are reading textbook material, keep in mind that the authors also have biases.
Their biases will influence the way they present the material.
Although textbooks primarily deal with factual material, authors must decide what facts to include and omit, and what facts to emphasize.
Pay attention to the author’s tone and choice of words to determine if a bias is present.
Such caution is especially important when the material deals with a controversial issue.
Denotative and Connotative Language When you look a word up in the dictionary, you are determining its exact meaning without the suggestions or implications that it may have taken on.
This is called the denotative meaning of a word.
The connotative meaning of a word refers to the ideas or feelings suggested by the word.
Words that have the same denotative meaning can have much different connotative meanings.
The connotation of a word can tell you a lot about what the speaker of the word means by it.
Not all words have connotative meanings.
Words that are heavily connotative are often referred to as “loaded” or “emotionally charged.” Writers who have a particular point of view and want to persuade you to accept that view often make use of loaded words or phrases.
Thus subjective material is more likely to rely on connotative, rather than denotative, language, and it is more likely to display a strong bias.
Euphemism The word euphemism is derived from the Greek word euphemos, meaning “to use a good word for an evil or unfavorable word.”
The Greek prefix eu means “good,” and phemi means “speak.” When someone substitutes an inoffensive word or phrase for one that could be offensive to someone, they are using a euphemism.
Most of the time euphemisms are used to be polite or to avoid controversy.
Euphemisms can also be used to purposely mislead and obscure the truth.
Propaganda Devices Webster’s dictionary defines propaganda as “a systematic effort to promote a particular cause or point of view.” Thus by definition, propaganda is not evil or deceptive. However, some of the techniques used are questionable because they appeal primarily to our emotions rather than to our intellect.
Slogans The slogan is equally effective in advertising and political campaigns.
In the latter, it usually takes the form of a chant that can unite large crowds into one common emotion.
Name-Calling Name-calling is a device used widely in political and ideological battles as well as in commercial advertising campaigns.
It tries to make us form a judgment without examining the evidence on which it should be based.
Propagandists appeal to our instincts of hate and fear. They do this by giving bad names to those individuals, groups, nations, races, or consumer products that they would like us to condemn or reject.
Glittering Generalities Glittering generalities are broad, widely accepted ideals and virtuous words that are used to sell a point of view. Like name-calling, glittering generalities urge us to accept and approve something without examination.
Some advertisements Transfer use symbols of authority, prestige, and respect that arouse emotions to sell a cause, a candidate, or a consumer product through the process of subconscious transfer or association.
Testimonial A testimonial is an endorsement of a product or an individual by celebrities or other well-respected persons.
Plain Folks The plain-folks device creates the impression that the advertisers or political candidates are just ordinary folks like you and me.
Card Stacking Card stacking is the technique by which facts, illustrations, and statements are carefully selected to make the maximum impact and sometimes give misleading impressions.
The cliché that “statistics don’t lie, but you can lie with statistics” applies to this technique.
The bandwagon device is based on the idea that Bandwagon “if everybody else is doing it, so should you.” “Jump on the bandwagon,” “be the first in your neighborhood,” “follow the crowd,” and “don’t throw your vote away by voting for a loser” are clichés associated with this device. makes political polling important at election time. The psychology behind this technique that he or she is a winner often leads to some conflicting polling results. The fact that each candidate needs to project the image
Sex Appeal We don’t ordinarily think of sex as a propaganda device, but it sells products in many ways.
In recent years, emotional appeals based on sex have been used more and more in product advertising.
Sex appeal is used to stimulate emotions and sell consumer products to both sexes.
Music The last device in our list is also seldom thought of as a propaganda device, yet it is one of the most effective techniques in radio and television commercials.
Music is an excellent tool for creating specific moods, and it can be used effectively for product identification. Part 3 On Analyzing Reading Text

Three types of reading and analysis:
What a text says – restatement
What a text does – description
What a text means – inferenceInference: Reading Ideas as Well as Words Consider the following statement: “The Senator admitted owning the gun that killed his wife.” What can be inferred from this statement? • There is a Senator.
