A Proposal to Develop Reading Habits among First-Year EFL University Students in Algeria

In this paper we tried to suggest the incorporation of a module designed to include diverse selected contents in link with all the subject matters in the English curriculum. The assumption behind this proposal was to develop reading habits in the students who arrived at departments of English with various weaknesses and difficulties in reading and understanding English. The aim of this suggestion was then to initiate and involve students in different types of discourse to provide them with sufficient knowledge, vocabulary, ideas and views to improve their standards in English. It was also intended to facilitate their learning and participation in debates and discussions that would come throughout their studies and in real life situations.
