Mastering the SQ3R Technique: Study Smart and Boost Learning Efficiency
According to Marty Lobdell’s (2011) video, SQ3R is an effective study method that stands for Survey, Question, Read, Recite, and Review. Surveying involves quickly going through a book. The next significant thing would be to raise questions as one goes through the document. However, it is essential to note that surveying and questioning should both co-occur. The technique is influential, resulting in the urge to look for answers. For instance, when reading a newspaper to locate specific information, it is much easier to get that particular information than reading without any objective. In the case of reading, participating in study groups and highlighting the most important things while reading is significant.
In addition, learners should read for 25-30 minutes since that is the average period for concentration, after which they should shift to a different activity to re-energize. After the break, the learner may return to reading, and the cycle repeats itself. After the study is over, getting enough sleep is beneficial. For recitation, individuals learn more by teaching others. After reading, to better understand the concept, learners may either talk aloud by recapitulating what they read, writing down the same, or telling it to someone else. The last step, review, entails rewinding the study by reading again to ensure that nothing has been lost or confused. As a result, the technique requires that learners start studying early enough so that by the time they get to do a test, they would only need to review what they learned.
