| 总结: | Eng: This paper presents a research process which objective was to strengthen the literal and
inferential levels of reading comprehension in English through the use of skimming and scanning
techniques with 10th and 11th grade students, from an Official Educational Institution of Santa
Sofía municipality, in Boyacá. This study was approached from the action-research design
through a qualitative approach, the data were obtained through the analysis of didactic guides
developed by the students, the researcher's field notes and the application of an input and output
reading comprehension test.
The results show that the application of the two reading techniques has a positive impact
on reading performance at the literal level mainly and, to a lesser degree, in the inferential
reading dimension, through the correlation of three conditions: the reader's linguistic competence
level, the relevance of his/her prior knowledge, and the external and internal characteristics of
the text to be read.
