Three Important skills of learning
1) Reading for Comprehension
2) Analytical Problem solving
3) Applying Learning Techniques
Reading Comprehension What to do before reading
1) Purpose - what is it that you are trying to do with the text
2) Survey - look at the pages and see what is going on
3) Question - try to make questions before reading so you can answer them ether will you are reading or after you are reading
