reading quiz

El porcentaje restante dependerá de **controles de lectura** respecto del material de lectura obligatoria y otros elementos que el profesor estime pertinentes.
= The remaining percentage will be from reading quizzes on required readings and any other factors the instructor deems pertinent

Andrés va por buen rumbo también aunque su respuesta quedó incompleta.

"Quiz" es un término académico, no tiene nada de malo. En Chile cuando menos, su equivalente es "control".

Gracias, colega, pero no me sirve. Se trata de un curso de microeconomía en una universidad. A los alumnos se les entrega una bibliografía obligatoria :)

reading controls

Could it be this simple? The teacher must check in some way that the student has read the required texts?
Note from asker:
Hi, Pat! Yes, your description is right. I just need to make sure you would call these tests "reading controls" in a college context??

(pop) quiz/test

Habrá un examen final y varios controles de lectura. Los estudiantes deben leer y venir preparados a clase,
ya que, sin previo aviso, la profesora puede darles una prueba o pedirles que escriban un párrafo sobre la
lectura del día. El examen final será el día 10 de diciembre de 2004 a las 3:00 p.m.

A more academic way of saying it would be "comprehension monitoring"

Hola, Andrés. Tengo que usar lenguaje académico, ya que estamos hablando de pruebas solemnes ("formal tests" AFAIK) y la ponderación de las evaluaciones de un curso universitario.
I'm afraid There's no "comprehension" involved here. These are university students who have to read a certain bibliography. Reading comprehension is for language students :)

Creo que tienes razón, Ed. Lo único que me preocupa es que mi tradu es para Estados Unidos y veo que el término que me propones es más bien británico (aunque entre tus ejemplos hay un par de páginas de EE.UU. también)
Peer comment(s):

agree Joss Heywood : I think this more general term is best - "controles de lectura" does not say how the assessment is done, so I think "quiz" is misleading here, and "reading comprehension" is more used in a TESOL context, not in evaluation of real knowledge.

thank you Joss! ;-)

follow-up reading

Teachers perform additional follow-up reading exercises from pre-set readings for grading students. Readings are usually based on context and communicative follow-up exercises.
