Forums IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ PhotoReading, Memory Optimizer Trigger - Multiples pass for activation

Hi There,

I have been reading your advice for whiteeagle and I have really had a revelation about what you are saying. I too am using my photoreading to learn about C# and ASP.NET2.

I already have a good purpose but what I am curious about is the activation strategy that I could use for beginning ASP.NET2 book:

Obviously go through the photoreading stages...etc.....

Would it be better to break down the book into chapters for activation and when you are happy you have grasped the chapter using the strategies, move onto the next chapter and start the whole process?

So for activation (after photoreading)... could I create a sub goal for chapter 1 then do 20 minutes of skittering?
Big question, what I am aiming to do with skittering and how do you define skittering? Move my eyes down the center of each page an not worrying about comprehension?
During skittering, do you take mental note of the information or do you take physical notes?
If physical notes, how much time do you need to spend?
Then do a mind map for 5 minutes. What are you aiming to mind map in this 5 minutes? Do you need to go back to the book to do the mind map or are you mind mapping the information you received in your brain during skittering?
Take a break
Then review my goal for chapter 1 and see if I need to take another pass through with skittering etc and possibly keep skittering until I am happy I have achieved my purpose?

.....Then move onto chapter 2 rtc

I also wondering if it is useful if the book is very techincal, is it ok to photoread the book every day for as long as it takes to work through it?

Hope you can help?

Regards
