Reading to Answer Questions

Look in your book bag or backpack right now and count the number of highlighters you find there. If you're like many students, you probably have a yellow one, a pink one, and a green or blue one.

You may also find that you spend a considerable amount of time in the classroom or studying highlighting important information. Guess what; all the information is important!

This program will introduce you to some new strategies for reading that will improve your retention and understanding of text-based materials. The goal is to learn to read critically, an essential skill for college success.

START PROGRAM

Before you start, here are a few things to know.

INSTRUCTIONS

The content of this program is presented in a single topic.
Your progress is monitored. You must successfully complete the topic to complete the program.
There are some questions at the end of the topic so you can evaluate your learning and identify information you would like to review. Don't worry, it's not a test and it's not graded. We call it a, "Check on Learning."

TIME MANAGEMENT

The program should only take about 15 minutes to complete.
Because there are no student accounts or retention of personal information, there is no bookmarking features. Users must complete the program in one session to be able to print a completion certificate at the end of the program.
