SQ3R Reading Method
22/03/2024 MBA/BPK/KPM2016
B. Question while you are surveying:
Turn the title, headings, and/or subheadings into questions
Read questions at the end of the chapters or after each
subheading
Ask yourself,"What did my instructor say about this chapter or
subject when it was assigned?"
Ask yourself,"What do I already know about this subject?"
Note: If it is helpful to you, write out these questions for
consideration.

22/03/2024 MBA/BPK/KPM2016
D. Recite after you've read a section:
Orally ask yourself questions about what you have just read,
or summarize, in your own words, what you read
Take notes from the text but write the information in your
own words
Underline or highlight important points you've just read
Reciting: The more senses you use the more likely you are to
remember what you read
Triple strength learning: Seeing, saying, hearing. Quadruple
strength learning: Seeing , saying , hearing, writing!!!

you have taken in the left hand margins of your notebook.
• Complete the form for a critical reading review
22/03/2024 MBA/BPK/KPM2016
Day Two
• Page through the text and/or your notebook to re-acquaint yourself with
the important points.
• Cover the right hand column of your text/note-book and orally ask
yourself the questions in the left hand margins.
• Orally recite or write the answers from memory.
• Develop mnemonic devices for material which need to be memorized.
• Make flash cards for those questions which give you difficulty.
Days Three, Four and Five
• Alternate between your flash cards and notes and test yourself (orally or
in writing) on the questions you formulated.
• Make additional flash cards if necessary.

Weekend
Using the text and notebook, make a Table of Contents - list all the
topics and sub-topics you need to know from the chapter.
From the Table of Contents, make a Study Sheet/ Spatial Map.
Recite the information orally and in your own words as you put the
Study Sheet/Map together.
As you have consolidated all the information you need for this
chapter,periodically review the Sheet/Map so that at test time you
will not have to cram.

KWLH
22/03/2024 MBA/BPK/KPM2016
K-W-L (Ogle, 1986) is an instructional reading strategy that is used
to guide students through a text.
Students begin by brainstorming everything they Know about a
topic.
This information is recorded in the K column of a K-W-L chart.
Students then generate a list of questions about what they Want to
Know about the topic.
22/03/2024 MBA/BPK/KPM2016
These questions are listed in the W column of the chart.
During or after reading, students answer the questions that are in the W
column. This new information that they have Learned is recorded in the L
column of the K-W-L chart.
22/03/2024 MBA/BPK/KPM2016
KWL is intended to be an exercise for a study group or class that can guide you
in reading and understanding a text. You can adapt it to working alone, but discussions
definitely help. The K-W-L strategy serves several purposes:
It is composed of only three stages that reflect a worksheet of the columns with
