Using the reflection strategies has helped me dramatically understand what I am reading, I avoided highlighting and skimmed the first paragraph then the last, it encouraged me to want to read the entire article, I started to write down questions, after I did read the article, I answered all my questions. Reading strategies are very helpful, also removing myself from my peers helped me concentrate.
While reading I couldn’t really absorb the overall theme because some of the readings I read were difficult, and many terms I didn’t really understand as it was advanced for my level, but I did define them. I wrote down all the words I didn’t understand, and defined them.
I would like to read more, and try to understand the overall meaning on the article, as I read in English and anthropology. I’m going to try more of reading it and reviewing it and even reading it again
