Effective Reading Skills for University
Department:  School of Science & Technology
Speaker: Associate Professor Low Wai Ping

The transition to university requires students to be effective in managing time, making effective notes and reading. Reading is a central approach in learning. It is important to read independently and effectively to learn significant portions of a course of study. Unfortunately, many students read passively, failing to build comprehension or goal for reading.

Active reading is a central approach to learning and it requires a set of skills and discipline. This workshop will introduce students to active reading strategies to make reading more productive and meaningful.
