As a result, many practitioners of ER require students to read a certain number of books or pages in a semester. While this system is very successful for small, homogenous groups of students, variety in reading speeds and graded reader titles mean that 10 books or 1000 pages means something very different for different learners. This literature review and response paper discusses reasons why book- and page-based targets have problems in mixed-level groups. In the response, an alternative system is summarized based on assigning credits per book, adjusted to take into account students’ reading level.}, pages = {91--104}, title = {Problems with Book- and Page-based Targets for Mixed-level Extensive Reading Groups: Suggestions for an Alternative System}, volume = {8}, year = {2013} }
