Conclusion

It is clear that academic reading is a fundamental element of studying in higher education , yet much of the support offered to students focuses on academic writing . This resource was designed to facilitate discussion with students about their experiences of academic reading and to encourage an active approach to reading academic material . By using a fairy tale as an example text , it is possible for a diverse group of students to participate in the activity , irrespective of their subject area . The discussion questions stimulate wider conversations about the context , content and argument ( s ) found in academic material , as well as the consideration of how critical thinking can be demonstrated in written work . I have adapted the resource following student and colleague feedback , and it is clear that there are further opportunities for using this resource as part of a growing provision of Learning Development support in relation to academic reading .
