Funded Activity Summary

Enhancing critical reading with migrant and refugee-background youth. This project investigates how migrant and refugee-background youth learn to read critically in school, and in everyday, out-of-school contexts. Youth engage in the complex online worlds of websites, Apps, digital gaming and other media, posing both opportunities and risks. Their challenge is navigating learning to read English, and to read critically in English. Using qualitative methods, this study will identify the critical reading practices of these youth, and create resources to enhance their critical reading skills out-of-school. Drawing connections between in and out of school reading benefits migrant and refugee-background youth and teachers to strategically manage critical reading in complex, contemporary reading environments.
