Herr, Selma E.
After a consideration of the causes of ineffective reading, this publication presents organized lessons (including 50 reading selections) for improving adult reading skills, and specific suggestions for securing the main idea, developing word power, developing such skills as skimming, following directions, visualization, and perceptual ideas, and improving the visual and physical aspects of reading. A final reading test, progress record forms, and keys for exercises are included. (ly)
