    Brgy. Tabunok, City of Talisay, Cebu, Philippines

    Subject Code: CORE11 Subject Title: Reading & Writing

    Module No: 9 Topic: Critical Reading as Reasoning

    Teacher:

    I. OVERVIEW

    Hi there! You have learned that as a critical reader, you should be able to use textual evidence when
    asked by your teacher to support analysis of the implicit and explicit information presented by a
    writer in text. Let’s learn together!

    A. Learning Competency

    Learners will be able to:

    • Explains critical reading as reasoning. (EN11/12RWS-IVac-8)

    B. Specific Learning Objectives


    The learners will be able to:
    a. distinguish factual from opinionated statements;
    b. analyze a news article;
    c. formulate questions and arguments.

    II. LET’S BEGIN

    What is reasoning? How are we going to give effective reasoning based on the text that we
    read? Is reasoning a skill which we can develop? Through giving out or spilling out reasons, can
    we fully convince the listeners?

    *Before we proceed in our discussion, please watch this video:

    III. LET’S DIG DEEPER

    Critical Reading as Reasoning

    What is Critical Reading?

    Reading critically does not necessarily mean being critical of what you read. Both reading and thinking
    critically don’t mean being critical about some idea, argument, or pieces of writing – claiming that it is somehow
    faulty of flawed?

    Critical reading means engaging in what you read by asking yourself questions such as, ‘what is the
    main argument being presented?

    Critical reading involves presenting a reasoned argument that evaluates and analyses what you have
    read. Being critical, therefore in an academic sense- means advancing your understanding, not dismissing and
    therefore closing off learning. To read critical is to exercise your judgment about what you are reading- that is, not
    taking anything you read at face value.

    When reading academic material you will be faced with the author’s interpretation and opinion.
    Different authors will, naturally, have different slants.

    Things that you should always examine/look when reading critically:


    • limitations
    • omissions
    • inconsistencies
    • oversights and
    • arguments

    In academic circles, whilst you are a student, you will


    be expected to understand different viewpoints and
    make your own judgements based on what you have
    read.
    Reading & Writing Page 2
    As a critical reader you should reflect on:
    ✓ What the text says: after critically reading a piece you should be able to take notes, paraphrasing - in your
    own words- the key points.

    ✓ What the text describes: you should be confident that you have understood the text sufficiently to be able
    to use your own examples and compare with other writing on the subject in hand.

    ✓ Interpretation of the text: this means that you should be able to fully analyse the text and state a meaning
    for the text as a whole.

    Critical reading means being able to reflect on what a text says, what it describes and what it means by scrutinizing
    the style and structure of the writing, the language used as well as the content.

    What is Reasoning?
    According to Merriam-Webster Dictionary, reasoning is an act of giving statements for
    justification and explanation. It is the ability of someone to defend something by giving out reasons.

    Giving Critical Response

    • Provide reasoning for the opinion stated.
    • Provide explanations to support argument.

    • Extract information from text.
    • Give recommendations on the issue discussed.
    • Use facts or examples to support argument.
    • Use question cues in argument.
