HELPFUL SUMMARY Reading fast is impressive, reading smart is productive. To read smart, use these 3Rs 1st R - READ (that is the obvious basic step) 2nd R - RELATE (discuss what you have learnt. This could be with someone else or a group) Make sure you are able to apply what you learn - that's the point of listening or reading it in the first place. 3rd R - wRITING (take organized notes as you learn, then write something about how you have processed it). hi, I'm a content creator. It matters to me to know if you found this summary ACTUALLY helpful. Kindly tell me in the comment section.
I really suffer from reading and retention. Often I will read a paragraph and in that moment I think I understood what I read but then I ask myself “what did I just read?” I can’t remember a thing. I really hope this works because for some reason at age 33, I’ve suddenly become fascinated by reading. I just want to read all day long but I struggle to remember/comprehend what I read when it’s in the format of a book 📖. Often I will need to read the same paragraph over 2-3 times before it sinks in.
1. Read with scheduling 2. Relate to somebody else. Use own word, talk to them. Stay away to talking to yrself 3. Write , handwriting. Organize yr notes
Starts at 3:13 “The first 3 “R’s” to remember when it comes to understanding what you read : 1. Reading (schedule your reading) 2. Relating ( Talk to someone of what you read & tell them to ask you questions) 3. Rite (take notes) P.S.. It should be “RRW” 🤷🏻♀️
3R 8:59(summary) 1. Read 3:16 schedule your reading -if you don't schedule it's not going to happen DO NOT SUBVOCALIZATION 2.Relate 4:19 talk about for a few minutes give yourselves three minutes to fill it in where is this taking place when is this taking place? who's the main character what's going on *QUESTION are the answer = one of the KEYS to better COMPREHENSION and finally make sure that you right 3.Write 7:39 read relate write Handwrite -organize it Left side take notes -capturing the information Right side make notes-creating notes
I read pretty slowly, and yet my comprehension struggles. All of my reading as a kid (which was a shit ton) was with fictional books - the movie played in my mind and I can recall the story scenes like memories from my own life. I think that impacts how I read and what my brain expects to experience when I pick up any book now. Studying biology, I read and I don't retain because... There is nothing visually happening in my mind to create scenes, and therefore memories. I remember scraps and diligently store everything short term with intense study to pass a test or exam, but I can't recall or explain nearly anything I've learned because I just memorized it quickly - I didn't actually comprehend it and understand it in my own way that let's the information stick in order to flow solidly when/if it comes time to talk about it. I remember studying so much, and yet... I only remember studying. The one thing stuck in my mind really well (a year and a half later) is dinoflagella, because I intentionally created a visual in my mind to remember it! 1. Bioluminescent 2. Two nuclei 3. Four flagella I created a mental visual of a glowing little blue dinosaur with tiny arms to represent the nuclei, then all four total lmbs represented the four flagella. Everything else? Pfft. Pretty much gone. I aced the shit out of that class even though our professor repeatedly said that the average student fails this class at least once or twice before passing with a C. I proudly marched away with my A! And yet... Here I am, barely remembering anything I learned and wanting to be a biologist. 🤦
Great Podcast Jim. I love your passion for learning and disseminating that knowledge. I also really like the way you make the subject matter fresh and interesting in a field where the material has traditionally been quite dry. Keep it up.
Hello Mr. Kwik, I did see your face, and/or your ads 'here-&-there' but I never look It (more deeply) I also seeing pictures where you are with a celebrity and like that. However, now I did starting to watch your videos/TED talks, etc. I started 2 weeks ago. It is just amazing the tips & guidance that you give to people all over. I would like to tell you two things Sir: #1-I am very sorry of what happen to you while growing up, including the oglines of some of your Teachers, friends, and/or other students. #2-I really would like to thank YOU for helping US. May Our Lord continue Blessing You Mr. Kwik!
Thank you so much Jim.. I just listen to this podcast and I am excited to put it to use, I really think this will help me a lot. Thank you. Love from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳...
Summary First R is too read Second R is to relate. Verbalize what you read talk to a friend in person or on the phone. You can even talk to a pet or object. Final R is to write. Take effective notes on what you read to help memorize the information.
Very good episode, it was interesting, specially the second method, about RELATE, something new to practice, because obviously we don't have always one person to share that we learn.
Visualization it has to IMPORTANT meaning to you 4:15 , Relate part of your goals , talk your version to something teach heightens your recall with your desire feeling emotions to add extra sensory . about your reading to eles so you can correct your understanding of topic in depth , 4:20 , 4:55 , Who, What, Where, When, and Why 8:35 talk about not to your self as it disappears to an object , it how it appears to your self , ask questions to inner focus on learning Left side you take notes Right side you make note Reading it again later your filter changes on events
If you read for 20-30 minutes (and 30 pages), you must remember all of what you have read. Only then you can actually talk about it and write. So the question is how to remember 30 pages, before starting to talk and write about your information?
Hi Jim. . . I have a 9yr old daughter who struggles learning especially maths and reading. I homeschool 2 kids so have been doing brain work. . .its going well but do you have any tips on memorizing times tables for maths? You are part of our schooling schedule!!
Do u offer critical reading course: for finding main idea of a paragraph , writers opinion, claim,view. These are the academic reading skills,thnx in advance.
I raraly ever read books but. I'm trying to read because My Little brother recomend me a book and I feel that If I don't read it My Little brother is gonna lose confidence on me and he is not gonna recomend me another book again.
