| The Verbal Strategies involve two main activities - creating questions and answering questions.
Question generation is a unique feature in 3D-Readers™. Students are asked to make up questions while reading the text. Research supports the tenet that asking and answering deeper level questions leads to better retelling and more recall of a text.
Constructed questions and answers are scored by HEMA™. Readers benefit from immediate feedback on their constructed, free-text answers, and this licensed proprietary technology returns a score in seconds!
Other verbal strategies in 3D-Readers include:
- activating students' prior knowledge of the content
- pre- and post- vocabulary training and assessment
- generating answers (both explicit and implicit)
- encouraging re-reading of text
