Your partner has yet to contact you about the project and it will soon be due. You are concerned that you need to begin work. Write an email to your partner asking them to meet to discuss the project.

  10. Critical Reading • Reading: • Quickly • With Focus • While asking questions about the information presented

  11. Critical Reading • ACTIVE READING is a set of skills that will to allow you to: • Identify a reading’s thesis, arguments and how they are supported; • Discuss qualitatively how the argument is constructed and think about whether and how it was useful; • Relate it to broader themes, to think about how it would be useful in the future.

  12. Active Reading • Pre-Reading • Reading • Summarizing and Evaluating

  13. Pre-Reading • Why do you do each week’s readings? • Why pre-read?

  14. Pre-Reading • Know what you want to know: • Survey the Article. • Ask Questions • - What is the topic? What does the reading seem to be about? How might it relate to that week’s readings or class topic? • Note Headings and Sub-Headings • [nursing reading summary sheet, see wsiryerson.wordpress.com/nursing]

  15. Reading Read quickly and effectively by jotting notes and questions as you go, but maintaining a good speed. • Marginal Notes • Highlighting • Vocabulary • Reference List

  16. Summarizing and Evaluating • Write up your notes. • Answer the questions you formulated during your pre-reading • Try and formulate a single major argument (thesis) in 1 to 3 sentences.

  19. Active Reading • The goals of active reading are to allow you to: • Identify a reading’s thesis, arguments and how they are supported; • Discuss qualitatively how the argument is constructed and think about whether and how it was useful; • Relate it to broader themes, to think about how it would be useful in the future.
