Dear Readers,
This is the third special issue of International Electronic Journal of Elementary Education (IEJEE).
The main topic is Reading Comprehension, one of the important skills that the students in the
schools of any knowledge society must command. To be able to do that the students at
every grade in the school must be provided educational conditions. This necessitates
teachers who pursue their job in accordance with research based knowledge and
pedagogical ideas. It’s the scientific circles’ duty to deliver a such knowledge and ideas as a
condition for the teachers’ professional development.
Our conception of reading in general and reading comprehension in particular has
improved by the enormous reading research activities during the last decades. Therefore it
was a right decision by IEJEE to focus on this important topic.
