Dana,
I Preview by looking at the table of context and asking what I want from this text. For example, I photoread my Molecular Cell Biology about a zillion times. I need all most all of the material from the text especially the material highlighted in the lectures. I have rapid read, dipped and skittered before class and at night. I haven't had the text gel not even a bit.
Sometimes, I just get frustrated and read the chapters. I wish I had someone to observe. I am just having a hard time getting this stuff out.
Regards,
SDstudent

SDstudent,First of all, you have the steps out of sequence. Second, the proper way to manually activate is to craft mind probing questions with your trigger words from your 8-minute Preview, and then begin SuperReading & Dipping, or Skittering & Dipping, so you can begin connecting your conscious mind with where all the material was absorbed in your other-than-conscious mind during the PR step. Build conscious comprehension from whole-to-parts, one layer at a time. Structure first, detail second.
Give me a specific example of a book you want to read, and I'll coach you from there.
