Santos (2012) points out that a sociointeractional approach to learning occurs from the development of a context in which a more competent partner gives the learner the necessary support in the learning process, emphasizing the idea that the learning process is always mediated. Such mediation involves the interaction between teachers, students, resources and teaching materials. Still, on the relevant aspects of the sociointeractional approach to learning, the author mentions Vygotsky's notion that language is the most important mediating tool. Therefore, thinking, reading, writing, and talking about a specific topic have an important impact on our understanding of the world.


Thus, regarding the teaching and learning of reading from a sociointeractional perspective and the role strategies have in that process, it is possible to draw some conclusions. Read the conclusions below, decide which ones are in accordance with that approach and mark the most adequate answer A – D.


I. Developing learner strategies in the foreign language reading class implies that the learner will be at the centre and in control of the use of strategies, being the agent of his/her strategic decisions.


II. Since the 1990s, reading has come to be understood as a complex and dynamic activity that involves not only bottom-up and top-down cognitive processes, but also other contextual elements such as the reader's experience with other texts, the medium in which the text is written and the reader's decisions, as well as the reading strategies that he/she uses.


III. Successful readers often focus their attention on the general meaning of the text, but always use the dictionary when they encounter unfamiliar words. They also seek to break up word groups into single words to improve their comprehension.


IV. Activation of the student's prior knowledge of a subject, attention to the title of the text, its images, as well as typographic marks (font type, bold, italics, etc.) and identification of the textual genre are important pre-reading strategies that can lead the learner to formulate successful hypotheses about the text, making it easier to understand.

    It's highly unrecommend to resort to the dictionary whenever one comes across an unfamiliar word or expression. It's always best to work out its meaning through the contextual clues and overall meaning of the passage. Also, individual words shouldn't be dwelt on; rather, it's better to understand the whole expression as having a single meaning. e.g.: for idioms and phrasal verbs, it's pointless to go over each word of the expression. for instance, catch 22, catch red-handed, off the rocker all are expressions that are understood as a whole concept, rather than a set of separate meanings
