Putting things into a context or
contextualization is the ability of the reader or student to place language
items in a meaningful and also real perspective instead o treating them as
separate or individual items of language and hence it makes the manipulation of
language easier. It is the ability to manipulate the language that makes it
easier for the ease in understanding the comprehension presented to an individual
at a particular time (Baker et. al., 2009). Having context before beginning
reading a comprehension enables the student to have a more real and
understandable communicative value to the language and vocabulary that the
learner may encounter thus can decipher the meaning of such a comprehension
with much ease. It is also the contexts that are placed by a student before
they begin the learning process that is instrumental in assisting the student
at remembering the language and also recall the information provided in such a
comprehension at a later date. The use of context cues is also critical at
assisting the learner at learning and also attaching meaning even to some
unfamiliar words that they may encounter during the exploration of the
comprehension (Baker et. al., 2009). For example, if a reader finds some
words that they have never seen before, they may use the information from
pictures provided or from the words or sentences that surround the word so as
to try and find its meaning. It is, therefore, clear that learning among
learners especially on language acquisition and also of reading and
understanding a comprehension relies heavily on the ability to place it into a
context. Having a context before reading such a comprehension is what shapes up
the thinking and also the vocabulary identification, acquisition and also
understanding by the learner leading to a better mode of learning and also
language comprehension (Baker et. al., 2009).
A study by Smith and Vela (2001), involves
the review of other studies that entail the incidental environmental, human
contextual-dependent memory and then there is the provision of a statistical
analysis of the various results of the variety of similar studies (
