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 texts 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 teachers, and to others,
is 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 you mental capacities more than almost anything else.
The philosopher Sir Francis Bacon said, “Knowledge is power.” Improving your
reading comprehension is the key to gaining important knowledge and making the
most of your education. So pick up a book… and a pen.
