Members of the Evelyn Wood Reading Program make it their goal to teach others how to at least double their reading rate, increase understanding, concentration and overall assist the student understanding good methods for note-taking, test-taking, and studying. They begin with sub-vocal linear reading, and progress to efficiently flying through the material in an orderly fashion and continue to add reading exercises to increase the reader’s average words-per-minute. The author, Stanley D. Frank, encourages the reader to find a quiet setting in which he/she can concentrate well, along with arranging schedules to follow, and setting aside small study sessions after setting a personalized goal for the project. Logical notes can be achieved by recall patterns, which allow organization by creating patterns from the key concepts, important words, and information taught.

techniques in How to Read Like a Professor ‘How to Read Like a Professor’ is a book that discusses several broad yet detailed techniques of reading. While I am positive everyone who reads this book knows how to read, they may not know how to read to fully comprehend all of a volume, even that which is not on the page.

In Sven Birkerts writing, “The Owl Has Flown,” Birkerts puts forth something to think about for any modern day reader. Birkerts believes that over the years the methodology of reading has changed as the technology has advanced. In the older days, people had small amounts of texts to choose from, but read them more thoroughly, and gained in depth knowledge about each book. In this day and age, the scope of reading has broadened but at the same time become shallower. He believes that we now read large amounts of materials, divulging ourselves into all sorts of different subject matter, but that we merely skim across its surface gaining no knowledge. In his opinion we have gone from vertical to horizontal depth. He deems an increase in the availability of reading materials the source of this change. Through the aforementioned essay, Birkerts successfully paints his argument and shows the power that can be gained from reading deeply and critically. He effectively depicts the changes made within our brains and habits as life around us changes in the literary world, and uses a steadfast argument to prove the negative effects of the loss of deep reading. (Birkerts)…
