SQ3R: A Great Reading and Studying
Technique
Improve Your Studying
Skills
SQ3R stands for:
Survey
Question
Read
Recite
Review
It is a proven technique to sharpen
your study skills. In college, you’ll be required to do lots of reading. You’ll
often have to complete reading assignments in several different books for
several different courses at the same time.
SQ3R helps make reading and studying
purposeful and effective, so that you use your time more efficiently. Here’s
how this strategy works.
Survey
Let’s say your assignment is to read
one chapter. First, get an idea of what the chapter is about by reviewing the
highlights:
· Read the title, headings and
subheadings.
· Notice words that are italicized or
bold.
· Look at charts, graphs, pictures,
maps and other visual material.
· Read captions.
· Read the very beginning and end of
the chapter.
