It’s 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 purposely effective, so that you use your time most
efficiently. Here’s how this strategy works.

" THERE IS NO JUSTIFICATION EVEN FOR CHOOSING ANY PART OF WHAT YOU KNOW TO BE EVIL"
AYN RAND
this statement says that there will never be any type of excuse for choosing evil. if two kids are doing seperate activities... one is doing homework and the other is doing drugs. lets say that the second guy is driving and runs over a kid... there is no excuse, he was on drugs and ran over a kid, that is taken right away to jail!

TIP 5: KEEP A LIST OF QUESTIONS
When you
feel confused about something you’re reading, write down any questions you
have. Sometimes your questions are answered as you read further. If not, don’t
be afraid to ask for help. Remember teachers create assignments; they’ve read
the text and are familiar with them. When you have specific questions, your
teachers can provide answers that will help you better understand the material.
Learning is rooted in questions developed and asked by the learner.
Asking questions
to yourself, to the teacher, and others, is a great learning method. When you
cease to ask questions, you cease to exist to a great extent. Read actively by silently
asking questions as you read. Questioning immerses you into the material you
are reading and therefore will expand your mental capacities more than almost
everything else.
The philosopher
sir Francis bacon said, “Knowledge is power.” Improving your reading comprehension
is the key to learning important knowledge and making the most of your
education. So pick up a book and pen.

SUCCESS STATEMENT
“when I was
teaching basketball. I urged my players to try their hardest to improve on that
every day, to make that practice a master piece. this rule is even more important in basket ball. you have to apply yourself each day to become a little better. by applying your self to the task of becoming better each and every day over a period of time, you'll become a little better. only then you will be able to aproach being the best you can be.”
If two boys
like soccer, one likes to play once in a while and the other loves to play
every day and learn more, if they both try to join a team the guy that plays
every day will most likely join and the other will get rejected.

TIP 3: DO RESEARCH
Literary critics
have written vast number of analytical and critical pieces on countless books. If
your having trouble understanding a particular text, do some research and see
what knowledgeable sources have to say about it. In addition to increasing your
comprehension, you’ll also be showing initiative, some teachers always like to
see. Always using legitimate an scholarly sources, not considered study guides.
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, and you’ll build your vocabulary at the same time.

5 tips for
success
Reading and
writing go hand in hand. The better you understand a text, the more likely you
are to successfully communicate your thought about it in writing. So it’s
important to develop strong skills in both areas. With that in mind, here’s how
to improve your reading comprehension.
TIPS 1-2
1. Annotate
Be an
active reader. Instead of passively reading a text, take notes about important
story elements, key factual information and significant ideas in the text.
2. Note the
authors style
Every author
writes with a purpose, using deliberate methods to successfully relate specific
information to the audience. When your reading look for patterns in the authors
writing. For example, you may notice a repetition of key word, phrases or
symbols- or the use of a distinct type of sentence structure.
