Enhancing Reading Speed and Comprehension Through Mindful Strategies

In this week's focus, we explore the profound connection between reading speed and comprehension. Doug Evans of the Institute of Reading Development emphasizes that just as a film loses impact when slowed down, so too does reading when approached word-by-word. Effective reading should flow at a conversational level, allowing ideas to coalesce naturally. Additionally, the importance of reflection in reading is highlighted with Edmund Burke's analogy about digestion. We will utilize various strategies, including context clues, vocabulary exercises, and Socratic seminars to enhance our reading skills.

  2. Quote of the day • “The connection between reading speed and comprehension; a film is made up of still images flashed in rapid succession to simulate movement. Slow down the film, and the movement and meaning slows and the film's impact is diminished. Viewers won't learn as much about the film as if it were shown at normal speed. With reading the same thing can happen. When a person reads word by word, like frame by frame, they are not reading on the level of ideas. You need to read on some level that's more conversational and allows things to coalesce into ideas themselves.” • - Doug Evans, Institute of Reading Development • “Reading without reflecting is like eating without digesting.” • - Edmund Burke
