Two Ways to Structure Your Reading

Categories: Reading Improvement Tips, Speed Reading | Tags:

As we mentioned in the last post, you can increase your efficiency when you’re reading – and thereby increase your reading speed – if you take a minute to think about what you’re reading, why you’re reading it, who wrote it, and where in the text you’re likely to find the information you’re looking for. There are two well-known ways to structure your reading time in this fashion, making it easier for you to process and remember the data that you need while helping you skim over the nonessential paragraphs. Here’s a brief overview of the two techniques:

SQ3R
(Survey, Query, Read, Repeat, Review)

Survey. Like anyone setting out on a journey in an unfamiliar place, you’ll get the most out of your voyage through the text if you have a general idea of its “map.” Start out by reading the ancillary material first:
– the introduction to the book or article
– a general summary by the author or editor
– an abstract (found with scholarly or other journal articles)
– the table of contents
– the glossary at the end of the text
– any reviews of the text (check on line for these as well)

Query. Ask questions: What is the author’s goal? When was the text written? Who wrote it and who is cited? Why did you decide to read this? Where will the most important information be found in the text?

Read. Read the text, keeping those questions in mind, and following your mental “map” of the contents.

Repeat. After each block of text, repeat the main points as you understood them. Depending on what you’re reading, you may want to do this at the end of a paragraph, or a section of a chapter, or at the end of the chapter as a whole.

Review. After you finish reading, go back and review the main points. Did you find the information you need? Did you fully understand what you read? Are your questions answered?

PQRST
(Preview, Question, Read, Summarize, Test)

Preview. Look at all of the ancillary material, including any graphics, tables, and section headings in the material, before you start reading.

Question. Use the chapter and section headings you saw to come up with questions about the text. What questions do you have? What questions do you think the text will answer?

Read. Read the text, keeping those questions in mind.

Summarize. Restate the text in your own words, both at the end of major sections and at the end of the material.

Test. Test yourself on the information you gained from reading the test by answering the questions you started with.

It may seem counterintuitive to add extra time following these steps when your goal is to increase your reading speed, but by taking a few minutes to organize your mind before you start reading, you’ll more than make up the time by the improved efficiency of your reading and recall of the information you need.
