ENGLB 55

Individualized Reading Skills

This course provides individualized, self-paced instruction of reading skills. Students meet with an instructor for diagnosis of reading needs, and an agreed-upon prescription is determined. Students are awarded units based on successful completion of assigned work, required time, and conferences with their lab instructor. Students are highly encouraged to enroll for one-half unit but may earn up to one unit per semester by completing 27 hours of work for each half unit. This course may be taken for a maximum of 2 units over multiple semesters, with each course constructed to assist students in their needs for that semester. The course is designed for students enrolled in a reading course, but is open to students in any discipline who are experiencing difficulty in reading as required for college. Students may register until the end of the ninth week of the semester and as space allows. The course is graded on a Pass/No Pass basis.
