Toward a Broader Definition of Comprehension Instruction.

Hodges, Carol A.

Reading Research Quarterly, v15 n2 p299-306 1980

Expands D. Durkin's definition of reading comprehension instruction, reanalyzes several observational studies of comprehension instruction, and concludes that an alternative and more plausible definition of comprehension instruction than that used by Durkin leads to a much higher estimate of the time teachers devote to comprehension instruction.
