The SQ3R method

In How to Teach Anything: Break Down Complex Topics and Explain with Clarity, While Keeping Engagement and Motivation I learned about the SQ3R method, wherein “American educator Francis P. Robinson developed a method meant to help students really get the most comprehension from the texts they’re assigned—and, ergo, the subject they’re studying. Robinson sought a way to make reading more active, helping readers by creating dynamic engagement with books so the information stuck in their minds.”:

  • survey
  • question
  • read
