From Decoding to Thinking: the Journey From Simple to Active Reading

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Reading is a fundamental talent that transcends mere word decoding, engaging the mind in critical thinking and comprehension. This paper examines the shift from the simplistic perspective of reading, centered on decoding and linguistic understanding, to the dynamic perspective of reading, which includes critical thinking and analytical involvement. This study emphasizes the need of transitioning from passive comprehension to an engaged and reflective reading process by examining existing literature and discussing practical methods for promoting active reading. Research indicates that the application of active reading practices markedly improves comprehension, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills, which are vital for academic and professional achievement.
