TEXT FEATURE SURGERY Students became skilled surgeons as they performed life-saving operations through dissecting text features of magazines. Each "patient" presented a set of symptoms, and students had to carefully identify the correct text feature(s) to develop the cure. Thanks to their hard work and sharp reading skills, every patient made a full recovery!
