Question

Describe the process of either skimming or scanning​

Answer 1

Answer:

Skimming and scanning are reading techniques that use rapid eye movement and keywords to move quickly through text for slightly different purposes. Skimming is reading rapidly in order to get a general overview of the material. Scanning is reading rapidly in order to find specific facts.

Answer 2

The question is answered below-

1. Skimming is a reading technique that emphasizes selective reading to gather the central idea of the text. Skimming a text or a passage allows the reader to receive the primary idea directed there. The process involves reading the headlines, the introduction, and the concluding passage. Reading a summary of the text can also help the process. Skimming facilitates fast reading or complete reading of a text within an assigned time.

2. Scanning a text ables the reader to look into some specific information that he is trying to interpret from the text. It is an alternative method for selective and fast reading.
