Summary: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the actual reading competency and metacognitive knowledge about reading. The researchers also desired to learn more about the students' ability to make summaries of expository text. The findings suggest that there is a direct correlation between the student's ability to summarize and their reading comprehension. The results promote a stronger teaching emphasis on summarization.

Summary: Focusing on individual student's challenges, the authors look at the way students initially approach paraphrasing, and then model for students how to paraphrase by connecting reading with prior knowledge.
