How to study from a textbook chapter
Treat a textbook chapter as an argument with examples, not a wall of paragraphs. A preview and short recall pauses make the reading more purposeful.
A simple way to try it
- Preview headings, diagrams, and end questions.
- Read one section at a time and note its key claim.
- Answer an end question without looking, then check.
