SQ3R
SQ3R is an active reading technique to help learn and retain information more effectively. It involves 5 steps: Survey, Question, Read, Recite, and Review. In the Survey step, the reader previews the text by looking over titles, headings, images and summaries. In Question, the reader turns headings into questions. Read involves reading the text to answer the questions. Recite has the reader recite the answers out loud in their own words. Finally, Review involves re-reading questions and answers and highlighted sections. SQ3R promotes active engagement with text for better comprehension and memory retention compared to passive reading. Regular practice is needed to fully develop this useful study skill.
