The Daily Reading Practices of Teacher Training Student

Abstract

This article examines the daily reading practices of primary education teacher training students. With the aim to discuss the stigmatization attached to the quantity and quality of readings performed by this population, the daily reading practices of three female students from this teacher training institution were analyzed. The main results of the research show that, on a daily basis, teacher training students engage in multiple reading sessions which are associated with diverse meanings and social connections, and are culturally valuable within the concrete conditions of their lives.
