+Skills and strategies turn to repeated behaviors over time. We refer to these as dispositions. Taking a critical stance, for example, is a disposition. It can involve skills such as quickly identifying an author and strategies of comparing multiple sources to verify claims. Yet you have to read with that "critical eye." Dispositions and other affective influences are hard to measure and teach and therefore often get overlooked in curriculum.
 Recent research in disciplinary literacies suggest these dispositions may actually involve more encularated practices and that "comprehension" requires learning the ways of being of a specific discipline. Not simply understanding or comprehending a science text book but knowing how a scientist would use the concepts in their every day talk in a way that signifies membership.
