Abstract
“The Instituto de Compuingles de Oriente was created as an answer to the current necessity of learning English and Computing. This institute offers the technician English career whose educational program is called “World English”. This program is supported by Heinle, part of Cengage Learning and National Geographic have teamed up to create materials for teaching English, which allow to experience different cultures through printed texts and multimedia that include the four skills. The book has a reading activity in every unit. Students were in the intermediate level and I realized they had problems with reading comprehension. The things I perceived were they did not like reading, they thought reading was boring, they had problems with reading comprehension activities, when I asked about the reading everybody was silent, and it seems they did not apply reading strategies. All these events made me feel interested in researching about reading comprehension problems, reading strategies, motivation.”
