College Reading           

If you want to learn how to improve your vocabulary, comprehension, critical thinking skills, and reading rate to the college reading level,  but you are unable to attend the on campus class,  then this course may be an option for you.  This course not only satisfies the Reading Competency Requirement for an AA degree at COS, but it is also transferable to the CSU system.  Since this course is conducted completely online, you need to have access to the Internet and an established e-mail account.  You must also posses the appropriate computer skills required for an online course.  In other words, you need to be able to effectively communicate via e-mail by sending and opening attachments, post responses to a discussion board, take quizzes and tests online, and navigate the Internet as required by the course assignments.
