What is critical reading?

- Critical reading is an analytic activity which involves the reader by
asking questions about the text and the author’s claim.
- Critical reading is a more active way of reading. It is a deeper and
more complex engagement with a text.
- When we read critically, we use our critical thinking skills to question
both the text and our own argument and other’s interpretation of it.

EXAMPLE: WE READ LIKE A DETECTIVE

Look for clues.
Ask questions.
Make your case.
Prove it.

Reasoning
- As defined by Merriam Webster dictionary, it is an act of giving
statements for justification and explanation. It is the ability of someone
to defend something by giving out reasons.
Remember that critical reading is not meant to criticize but to assess the validity
of textual evidence.

new concepts
#2 1. Identifying Assertions
- Identify by a common type of assertion such as fact, convention,
opinion, and preference.
2. Formulating counterclaim
- Counterclaims are made to rebut a previous claim.
3. Determining evidence
- Evidence is the details given by the authors to support his/her claims.
 Example

You are asking your father for an android cellphone, that is your claim. Then
your father answers you “no, you can’t!” this is his counterclaim. He might say
that you already have a cellphone. Therefore, when you are going to
formulate a reason for the counterclaim, you should state the reason why you
are asking for an android cellphone. You might say that you could use it in
your online classes because android cellphone would be very useful in your
studies.
