S-RUN-R

S-RUN-R is a study system that helps with your retention on the information.

S- Survery.  You will survey the entire document, chapter, etc. paying attention to the headings as well as any highlighted text or subjects.
R- Read.  Write down the heading in your notes, to help you focus your thoughts on the specfici topic then read the section for comprehension.
U- Underline.  After reading each paragraph underline or highlight the important information.
N- Notes.  Take notes on the key information in each section.  You can do this in the margin of the text or on a seperate peice of paper.
R- Review.  When you finish the entire document, chapter, etc review.  Go over the key points, answers questions at the end of the chapter, review key terms.

I enjoy this study system because you are looking at the information more than once.  I noticed that I am able to answer more of the questions at the end of the chapter without having to look back in the text.
