Sumario:The final objective of this study is to evaluate whether reading sessions for university learners of English as a foreign language help students become critical and effective readers of particular genres used in foreign language classes. In order to learn about the students´ actual reading performance we will implement reading workshops in which we will analyze the students´ reading comprehension strategies, first without any type of intervention and second, we will compare that situation with their results in reading tests after teachers´ interventions. The participants of the study will be third-year university students (Facultad de Lenguas, National University of Córdoba).
