How to Take on College Study
Part 3
Do the Reading
You need to do more than just read the chapters you are
assigned—you’re expected to understand them thoroughly. Here are some tips:
·
Don’t skim. Read all the material carefully.
·
Break up difficult assignments into sections you can
digest- chapters, subsections or even paragraphs.
·
Look up any words that you don’t understand.
·
Pause to think about whether you understand the
materials; ask questions in class and about anything that is unclear.
·
Take notes instead of highlighting – this makes you
think through and rephrase the key points.
·
Create a summary sheet of what you’ve learned from
each assignment you read.
Choose The Right!!
