Academic texts are completely different from non-academic texts in terms of structure, content, and style.

Authors of academic texts usually present facts to support their main argument.

Completing academic readings appear to be a challenge in which students fail.

Critical reading strategies lead the readers to a full understanding of the text

Essentially, the language of academic texts is   subjective and accurate.

One has to determine his/her purpose before   reading.

Reading strategies differ from one person to   another.

Successful readers of academic texts generally   integrate valuable information ideas presented in   the text.

Through writing annotations, readers are guided on   important ideas presented in the text.
