OUTLINE

I. Questioning Yourself - Preview, Study-Read, Review (PSR)

•P-- Preview Stage of Reading

•S-R-- Study-Read Stage of Reading

•R-- Review Stage of Reading

The PSR technique, Preview, Study-Read and Review:

requires that you question yourself before, during and after you read
encourages you to participate in the “reader-author” conversation
discourages passive reading
encourages you to assess what the author says and decide if it makes sense to you
encourages you to add what you know to the conversation by recalling related information
requires that you respond to your reading through journal writing

Commenting in writing helps you to digest and understand key points
identifying exactly where you became confused during your reading, you pave the way toward finding

Always:
read actively
question yourself frequently
write until your hand hurts.

A good reader becomes a good conversationalist with the author.
