Introduction • This is a Hafiz Bin Hajar, Reading The small Mujab for Al Dabarani Between zuhur & Azar. • Other Muhaditheen Read Sahih Al Bukhari in three seats.
THE FASTEST READER IN THE WORLD Howard Berg is the fastest reader in the world. Really. You'll find him in the 1990 Guinness Book of World Records for reading 25,000 words per minute and writing 100 words per minute.
Step One -- Survey To survey the book means to preview the book before you read it. The Three Goals of Surveying – to get • A general overview • A feeling for the writer’s style and organization • A sense of what’s important • An idea of the book’s natural breaks or divisions
How to Survey (6 steps) • Read the Table, objectives, introduction, • Pay attention to the title bolded words, conclusion, summary, headings and subheadings, outlines, lists of questions and the diagrams 3. Read each heading and the first sentence following each heading.
Survey -- 7 Steps (continued) 4. Read all captions and explanations accompanying the graphics. 5. Read all bold-printed or italicized words and words in the margins. 6. Read end-of-the-chapter summaries and questions, or read the last page if there is no summary.
Why Survey? • Get the big picture • Decide what’s important • Know the main points • Connect what you already know to what you don’t know • Prepare to read
Step Two -- Question • Turn book headings/subheadings into questions to guide your reading • Ask what? • Ask who? • Ask why? • Ask how? • Where? and when? questions give you a very limited answer.
Example Heading:Language Symbolizes Reality Ask: • What does it mean to say language symbolizes reality? • How does the nature of language affect our verbal messages? • Why does language symbolize reality?
Why Question • Stay focused • Gives purpose • Creates interest
Step Three -- Read • Never study read without a highlighter and pencil in your hand. • Read to answer your guide questions for each section and subsection. Rereading is common. Read every word. • Underline and/or highlight. Be selective. • Underline/highlight only the words and phrases you need. When you go back and reread your underlining or highlighting, the text should have meaning.
Read (continued) • Make notes in the margins. • Mark important text items such as dates, names, concepts, and key points. Use circles, stars, arrows, numbers. • Your goal is to read the book thoroughly only once.
Why Read • To gain information • To prepare for lecture • To prepare for discussion • To prepare for tests
Vary Your Reading Rate • Adjust the speed with which you read! • Don’t be afraid to SLOW DOWN if the text becomes difficult
Step Four -- Recite • To recite means to say something out loud. • After each section, stop and test your comprehension • Put it in your own words • Write a summary or create an outline • Write notes (in book or on paper) • Recite the answers to your guide questions • Recite, from memory as much as possible. • Recitation can be done by writing • Write out your own answers
Why Recite? • Improves concentration • Helps you remember the material When to Recite? • Immediately after reading each section
Review – after reading • Look at the headings and see what you can remember about each one • Review immediately after reading a section. • This should be relatively brief, not more than 5 minutes, • To inhibit forgetting, try reviewing weekly, and every time you read another section, review the previous section in the same way.
Highlighting/Underlining • Be selective • Highlight/underline key points • Highlight/underline just enough to use as review According to procrastination expert Neil Fiore, Ph.D., fear of failure is the main reason why people postpone the inevitable. Thus, procrastinators delaybecause of their anxiety about not having the required skills, or knowledge to complete the task at hand. They would rather fail to try rather than be exposed as stupid or incapable.
Strategies for remembering new words • Circle new words in the book(s) you are reading • Write the word in your Vocabulary Journal (and look up the meaning) • Create a visual image of the word
Try to avoid focusing on every word, but rather look at groups of 2 to 3 words. • Work on vocabulary improvement. Familiarize yourself with new words so you don't get stuck on them when you read them again. • If you find yourself moving your lips when reading, force yourself to read faster by following (1.) above so that you can no longer move your lips. • Read more! 15 minutes a day of reading an average size novel equals 18 books a year at an average reading speed!
Determine your purpose before reading. If you only need main ideas, then allow yourself to skim the material. Don't feel you must read every word. • Spend a few minutes a day reading at a faster than comfortable rate (about 2 to 3 times faster than your normal speed). Use your hand or an index card to guide your eyes down the page. Then time yourself reading a few pages at your normal speed. You'll find that often your normal reading speed will increase after your skimming practice.
If you have poor concentration when reading, practice reading for only 5 - 10 minutes at a time and gradually increase this time. • There are several books on increasing reading speed available in most bookstores or online. If you are serious about increasing your rate you may want to work systematically through one of these books specially color books.
