How To Read A Book And Understand by Itzogunsakin(m): 8:42am On Nov 04, 2015 |
1 Take notes. It is possible to read a textbook for fun, but the practice is not very common. Most people read a textbook because they need to get information, and textbooks are an excellent source of concentrated, clearly-organized information on many topics. To get the most from reading your textbook, have a notepad open beside you while you read. Set a pattern. Read one paragraph at a time, then stop and make a note about what that paragraph said. Try to put it into one or two quick phrases or sentences. Review your results. At the end of your session, you'll have a personal copy of all the information you need. Read over it to ensure that everything makes sense to you. |

2 Read by chapter. In most cases, it isn't necessary to read a textbook straight through from start to finish, but it isn't very useful to jump from section to section, either. Instead, every time you have to read even part of a chapter, plan to read that entire chapter. Understand more of what you read. Reading the whole chapter in order once will put all the information you need into a solid context, making it easier to understand and easier to remember. Take a victory lap. There's no need to read back through the whole chapter once you've done it the first time. You can cherry-pick from the chapter as needed afterward. 3 Keep up. If you're reading a textbook, it's probably for a class you're trying to pass. So the best way to tackle them is to start early and try to make steady progress every time you open one up. Make it a date. Schedule regular space at least a few days a week to read your textbook, and it'll go by much more easily than if you tried to cram it all in right before each test. |

Read when you are in the right mood. If you are distracted, angry, or too worried to concentrate, you won't get much out of what you read, and probably won't remember any of it the next day either. Don't forget to keep track of library due dates. Return or renew your library books by the due date to avoid late fees. (Find your favorite author, and always checkout his or her books first!) |
