SQ3R: A Great Reading and Studying Technique

SURVEY

RECITE

REVIEW

It is a proven technique to sharpen your study skills.

In college, you’ll be required to do lots of reading. You’ll often have to complete reading assignments in several different books for several different courses at the same time.

SQ3R helps make reading and studying purposeful and effective, so that you use your time most efficiently. Here’s how this strategy works.

SURVEY

Let’s say your assignment is to read one chapter. First, get an idea of what the chapter is about by reviewing the highlights.

·         Read the title, headings and italicized or bold.

·         Look at charts, graphs, pictures, maps and other visual material.

·         Read captions.

·         Read the very beginning and end of the chapter.

Tip 5:Preserve a list of questions

When you are confused while you are reading, record your issues. Sometimes your questions are answered as you read forward. If not do not be afraid to ask for clarification. Remember, teachers create assignments; They have read the text so therefore they are familiar with them. When you have specific questions, your instructors can

---

Provide you with clarification that will allow you to understand the material. Learning is developed through the questions asked and constructed by the learner.

Asking questions intended for yourself, instructors, or acquaintances, is a great learning method. When you cease inquiring, you cease to exist to a greater extent. Read actively by silently questioning yourself as you read. Questioning immerses you into the material you are reading and therefore will expand your mental capacities more than almost any activity.

The philosopher Sir Francis Bacon Once said, “Knowledge is power.” Improving your reading comprehension will allow you to gain important knowledge and exerting the potential of your education. So always question.

Student Success Statement

"When I was teaching basketball, I urged my players to try their hardest to improve on that very day, to make that practice a masterpiece. This rule is even more important in life then basketball. You have to apply yourself each day to become a little better. By applying yourself to the task of becoming a little better each and every day over a period of time, you will become a lot better. Only then will you able to approach being the best you can be. It begins by trying to make each day count and knowing you can never make up for a lost day." -John Wooden

Tip 3: Do Research

Literary critics have written vast numbers of analytically and critical pieces on countless books. If you’re having trouble understanding a particular text, do some research and see what knowledgeable sources have to say about it. In additional to increasing your comprehension, you’ll also be showing initiative, something teachers always like to see. Always use legitimate and scholarly sources, not condensed study guides. Going the extra mile in your research elevates your achievements 10-fold.

Tip 4: Use a Dictionary

Make sure you have access to a dictionary when you’re reading. You can often figure out the meaning of an unfamiliar word by using context clues, but sometimes you can’t. Rather than simply skipping over the words you don’t know, take the time to look them up. The results are well worth the effort. Your comprehension will increase greatly; you’ll build your vocabulary at the same time.

3. Set Attainable Goals

If you’re having trouble writing a 25-page paper for class because it seems like such a big job, don’t focus on that final number. Break the paper down and consider each section of your paper individually. You can handle any project in small chunks.

4. Find a Social Support Network

Create a group of people around you who want to help you succeed. Mentors can be teachers or family friends who can give you guidance and help you develop new skills. Counselors can help you with planning your courses and starting to explore colleges. You can also reach out to friends and peers who can motivate you by listening and sharing ideas.

5. Acknowledge Your Accomplishments

Give yourself a quick reward when you complete an assignment or task. take a walk send an email get a snack. ten move on to the next project.

emphasis on the written word

most of the communications as well as the courses work in distance learning classes is written. thats a plus because the focus on the written word gives you the opportunity to develop as a writer-- and strong writing is essential to academic success. however if writing is a serious weakness for you virtual learning may may not be the best option until you improve your skills. your penmanship needs to be excellent ,spelling great, sentence structure above average, vocabulary extraordinary. you also need to have online access with reliable equipment.

decide whether its right for you
