About the Author
Compiled here is a general list of links to resources about content reading and comprehension strategies. They are divided into two main groups: sites that address foundational issues, and sites that give support to particular strategy use. Also included below is a link to the free quiz-making site, Ed Tech Tools, from the University of Hawaii. If you know of other great links that should be added here, please drop me a note with the url.
