Dr. Langer explains the four vantage points that effective readers take as they build "envisionments," and the research process through which she identified them. She explains how each vantage point, or "stance" contributes to an evolving and expansive understanding of the text. The stances are demonstrated as the readers discuss Gary Soto's poem "Oranges."
