Abstract

Reading written material in English is an elementary condition for the construction and development of knowledge in the academic field. However, the significant advance of this ability has had its setbacks due to the fact that the student does not apply metacognitive strategies in an adequate and contextualized manner. In addition, it does not make critical and reflective interpretations of its social reality, which results in a weakened or decontextualized cognitive and social construction of knowledge. Reading is interpreted as a sociocognitive activity for which it is necessary to analyze cognitive theories about prior knowledge schemes and also social theories referring to the importance of dialogue, interaction and the negotiation of meanings when interacting. with the text, as well as other readers who share the activity of interpretation and understanding of said text. In the present work, we reflect on sociocognitive strategies for approaching reading in English in basic training courses for university students.
