This concise and practical text will equip students with the effective reading strategies they need when preparing for their university assessments. It dispels assumptions often made about the nature of reading at university, and provides an overview of the culture of academic reading, note-making, and what markers expect. This text provides support for reading structured around the process of crafting an assignment, including reading critically and developing an academic voice. Reading at University provides students with the tools necessary to tackle the volume and complexity of reading required at university. By taking students through a range of "myths", followed by practical and helpful advice on how to maximise analytical reading, the book gives students the insider's approach to effective reading.
