Scanning | Reading

Scanning is a reading strategy that helps you understand a text. Scanning is used to look for specific information.

To scan I first need to look through the contents of the book. If the article didn't have a contents page then move on.

After that I found the heading. Then I looked for the keywords and read the sentence that had the keyword.

Scanning can help you understand texts better.
