of decoding symbols in order toconstruct and derive meaning.
><NEMO ENIM IPSAM VOLUPTATEM QUIA VOLUPTAS
>< 4
When is reading receptive and when is it productive? • Reading is receptive when we are
reading and internalizing the data.
• It is productive when we speak aboutwhat we are reading.
><NEMO ENIM IPSAM VOLUPTATEM QUIA VOLUPTAS
>< 5
Why is fluent reading and decoding different? • When we decode letters are deciphered
as visual patterns and we canpronounce them while when we readfluently we understand the message andit has some type of meaning.

>< 6
• What three things a person does when reading?

because they acquire vocabulary from all ofthe reading that they do.

• Scan
• Intensive Reading
• Extensive Reading
><NEMO ENIM IPSAM VOLUPTATEM QUIA VOLUPTAS
>< 10
How to skim? Why do you skim? • You skim by running your eyes over thetext, noting important information.
• Skimming is used to quickly gather the mostimportant information, or ‘gist’ of what youare trying to read.

over the text looking for the specific piece of information you need.
><NEMO ENIM IPSAM VOLUPTATEM QUIA VOLUPTAS
>< 12
What is extensive and intensive reading? • Extensive is when we read to further a
knowledge we posses and intensive reading iswhen we are trying to get new data in our longterm memory.

Part III. SQ3R Method
><NEMO ENIM IPSAM VOLUPTATEM QUIA VOLUPTAS
>< 14
What does the acronym SQ3R stand for?• Survey
• Question
• Read
• Recite
• Review
><NEMO ENIM IPSAM VOLUPTATEM QUIA VOLUPTAS
>< 15
How many times should we read when we use this method? In what parts of the method do we read?• At least three times, we read in the read, recite
and review sections.
• We should read the text at least three times.The first time to survey, the next to underlinedifficult vocabulary and the third time forcomprehension.
•
><NEMO ENIM IPSAM VOLUPTATEM QUIA VOLUPTAS
>< 16
Why should we turn the titles, headings, and sub-headings into questions?• When we do this we basically summarize the
section read.
><NEMO ENIM IPSAM VOLUPTATEM QUIA VOLUPTAS
>< 17
Part IV. Active Reading
><NEMO ENIM IPSAM VOLUPTATEM QUIA VOLUPTAS
>< 18
What is active reading?
• Active reading means reading with adetermination to understand and evaluate it forits relevance to your needs
><NEMO ENIM IPSAM VOLUPTATEM QUIA VOLUPTAS
>< 19
Mention four things you must do to read actively.
• Underline or highlight key words and phrases as you read. When you return to it later on, you can easily see which points you identified as important.
• Make annotations in the margin to summarize points, raise questions, challenge what you've read, jot down examples and so on.
• Read critically by asking questions of the text. Who wrote it? When? Who is the intended audience? Does it link with other material you've studied in the module?
• Test yourself by reading for half an hour, putting the text away and jotting down the key points from memory.
• Look for 'signposts' that help you understand the text -phrases like 'most importantly', 'in contrast', 'on the other hand'.
• Explain what you've read to someone else.
• Record yourself reading the module material or your notes, and listen to the recording while you're travelling or doing household chores.

Part V. Inferring and The Human Memory
><NEMO ENIM IPSAM VOLUPTATEM QUIA VOLUPTAS
>< 23
What is the importance of inferring to increase reading comprehension?• When we infer we are making educated
guesses. By guessing rather than stoppingwe increase our speed of text. This in turnhelps us comprehend text better.
><NEMO ENIM IPSAM VOLUPTATEM QUIA VOLUPTAS
>< 24
Mention the three types of memory.
• Sensory, short term and long term memory.
><NEMO ENIM IPSAM VOLUPTATEM QUIA VOLUPTAS
>< 25
Mention the differences between the three types of memory.
• Sensory is when we have the ability to retainimpressions of sensory information after theoriginal stimuli have ended.
• Short term memory holds information for shortperiods of time.
• Long term memory allows us to storeinformation and internalize it.
><NEMO ENIM IPSAM VOLUPTATEM QUIA VOLUPTAS
>< 26
How does each type of memory impact your reading skills?
• First we must accept what we are reading andread it voluntarily.
• Then we should read to put this information inshort term memory.
• Finally, we review and repeat the data in orderfor it to stay in our brains.
