Summary

University Success Reading is designed for English language learners preparing for mainstream academic
environments. A flexible three-part approach includes intensive and systematic skill development tied
to learning outcomes along with authentic essays written by top professors from Stanford University.
The Reading strand provides real-life learning experiences that prepare students to become fluent,
automatic, and competent readers who can achieve academic autonomy.
Highlights

Topics are aligned around science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM) content.
— Parts 1 and 2 include challenging readings that allow students to engage with the content as they
build essential reading and critical thinking skills.
— Part 3 provides a truly authentic experience with an extended essay that enables students to
apply and expand the skills acquired in Parts 1 and 2.
• Additional online readings, skill and vocabulary practices, collaboration activities, and assessments.
• Strategies for academic success and soft skills delivered via online videos.
