dc.description | This Supplement to Now Is Not the Time to Panic can help you read texts about unfamiliar topics, internalize relevant themes from the book, and engage more fully in campus-wide conversations about the book. The Vanderbilt University English Language Center (ELC) created this supplement as part of our mission to address the professional, academic, and practical language needs of students who use English as an additional language. Our supplement includes the following sections to support your reading:
* reading strategies: develops skills such as building background knowledge, previewing, and skimming
* book structure: explores skills for improving reading accuracy, comprehension, and speed, including sections about recognizing chapter organization, spotting plot structure, and identifying cultural references and slang
* Kevin Wilson’s writing style: identifies literary devices such as narrative voice and metaphors that can enhance your reading experience
* reflecting on belonging: guides reflection on the book’s central themes and how they can enhance your experience on campus | en_US |
