| contents | Integrating Xreading into Class Time Using Post-Reading Tasks Harrold, Peter Reading Programs Web Sites Integrated Learning Systems Electronic Libraries Progress Monitoring Reading Assignments Required Courses College Freshmen Reading Materials Homework Writing Assignments Reading Writing Relationship The Xreading website provides students with access to an extensive virtual library of graded readers. Teachers can then use it to keep track of which titles the students access, the total number of words they read, their reading speed, and also whether they have completed post-reading quizzes. However, an overreliance on monitoring student progress entirely outside of class using word targets or quizzes can potentially be circumnavigated by reluctant students who dislike reading regularly. This paper will share how the teacher integrated short creative post-reading tasks into the weekly digital reading assignment of a compulsory English language class in an attempt to ensure students were engaging with the stories and reading regularly. It was found that the tasks enabled students to interact and discuss their reading with their classmates and also helped demonstrate the value and importance of extensive reading to students by further integrating it into class time.
