evaluating
For example, students can create summaries, where they take a huge selection and reduce it to its main points for more concise understanding.
evaluating
200-220 words per minute.
normal
250-350 words per minutes.
Average
500-700 words per minute
Good
1000 words per minute.

are reading techniques that use rapid eye movement and keywords to move quickly through text for slightly different purposes.
Skimming and scanning
TO SAVE TIME
SKIM
is reading rapidly in order to get the general overview of the material.
