Let us briefly go through these steps in the given order.
1. Survey: Survey refers to a quick glance through the title page, preface and chapter headings of a text. By surveying, you will be able to gauge the main ideas of the text. A survey of the bibliography tells you immediately whether the book contains what you need.
2. Question: The second step in the SQ3R technique of reading is
“question.” A survey of the text will surely raise a few questions in your mind regarding the text
3. Reading: After surveying and questioning, you begin the actual reading.
You need to develop a critical approach to reading anything for that matter.
4. Recall: The fourth stage in reading comprehension is recalling. Reading is not an isolated activity. Every reading exercise increases your background knowledge. Recalling whatever you have read will enable you to Connect and relate the content with the previous and future learning of the subject.
5. Review: Reviewing is nothing but checking whether we have followed the earlier stages promptly and efficiently. Have we surveyed the book, article, or magazine properly?
