  5. What will be your plan of attack? • Something to keep in mind: The more information you have about the material before you read, the more focus and comprehension you’ll have when you do read!

  6. STAGE 1: PREVIEWBEFORE READING • Survey the textbook (Text Preview) • Survey individual chapters/sections (Textbook Study System--SQ3R)

  7. GET TO KNOW YOUR TEXTBOOK • A textbook may not be the easiest of books to read, but it is the most predictable. • It’s organized with many tools for assisting you in understanding and learning. • Become familiar with your course textbook – know how it’s organized.

  8. PREVIEW the textbook!at all the key parts! • Title of text • Author • Publication date • Preface or Forward • Study Tools: • Table of Contents? • Appendix? • Index? • Glossary? • Charts, Graphs, Pictures? • Diagrams?

NEXT, LOOK AT A CHAPTER: • Does it have any reading aids? • Introduction? • Chapter Summary? • Learning Objectives? • Headings/Subheading? • Study Questions? • Charts, Maps, Graphs? • Supplementary Readings? • Author’s Notes? • Additional References? • What about the Page Layout? • Boldfaced/italicized print? • White space? • Clear print?

  14. NOW, TURN ON YOUR MEMORY by asking yourself questions: • How long is the chapter? • What parts of the chapter seem most important? • Do I need to read everything with equal care? • Can I skip some sections?

  15. Questions prepare your brain • What is the topic of the chapter? • What does the title suggest? • What do the subheadings, italics, and visuals suggest? • What do I already know? • Is this a new topic? • Is it related to something I have already learned? • What is my purpose for reading? • What will I need to know when I finish? • How is the material organized? • What is the general outline or framework of the material?

  16. Stage 2 – DURINGREADINGConnect Knowledge • Actively read! • Seek - answers to your questions • Picture– visualize; create a picture in your mind. • Relate– connect with ideas you already know. • Monitor – become aware of when you stop understanding what you are reading and why • Correct – get back to concentrating and understanding
