- 3 unique takeaways/tips from the readings were thinking about who the primary audience of the text is, breaking down the introduction so that you can understand what the text will be about and considering the author’s choices. These would help me in particular because I have a very hard time at comprehending and trying to understand WHY the author writes what they do, their thought process etc. Comprehending and understanding is a big part of learning for me because you can’t really take away from a reading if you can’t or really anything if you don’t have a full understanding of what you’re reading.
- I think that this means to go into a reading as if you’re a part of the reading. While reading the text you could think, why is this being said, who is this meant to touch, why is it so important etc, You break down the text better which leads to a way better analysis.
- You can learn the context of a text before reading by figuring out the author’s purpose and who the intended audience is.
