Results showed that, in a nutshell, students are reading below their grade; nevertheless, the fact that they are Colombian inmigrants living one year in the U.S., may explain their results on the assessment tests. In the discussion section, I put into perspective the student’s assessments’ results with their context and personal background in order to have a broader understanding of their reading skills. The implication of this study is to acknow...

Estos estudios irán acompañados de reflexiones acerca de la modernidad que serán necesarias para comprender el contexto de la novela y pod...
