What does SQ3R stand for in communication skills.

Answers

S: means Survey. This is the reading style previously discussed.
Through surveying, you will be able to select the reading materials appropriate for your purpose.

Q: means Question.
Before reading you should formulate some questions with regard to your purpose for reading. The questions should be on the kind of information you are seeking. As you read you should try to note answers to your questions as well as other issues related to the subject in general.

1 R: stands for Read.
This means that you read the text to understand the ideas and issues raised. You may accept or reject ideas, views, argumentations raised or examples given and may raise your own counter views and ideas. You may also accept the writer’s views partially. It is at this time that you as a reader should make note of points, ideas, argumentations, illustrations, etc. that provide answers to the questions you raised before you began to read. The reading style you adopt – skimming, comprehensive, etc. will be determined by your need.

2 R: means Recall/Recite.
This is post-reading exercise. At this point you may go over the notes made during reading and even make additional notes or summaries. This is the stage when you close your book and try to answer the questions that you formulated before you stated to read.

3 R: means Review.
This is only necessary if you need to remember what you have learned from your reading, as you would do for an examination. Often you will be able to refer back to your notes when you need the information you have recorded. The review stage requires you to try to remember as much as possible of what you have learnt at regular intervals. You should do the first review within 24 hours and followed it up with fortnight reviews
