HERE'S UR ANSWER

Skimming is reading a text quickly to get a general idea of meaning. It can be contrasted with scanning, which is reading in order to find specific information, e.g. figures or names.

Example
A learner taking a reading exam decides to approach text by looking at the title, introductions, and any diagrams and sub-headings, then skim reading to get a clear general idea of what the text is about.

In the classroom
Skimming is a specific reading skill which is common in reading newspapers, messages and e-mails. It is important that learners understand that there is no need to read every word when skimming, so often teachers set this as a timed task to encourage speed.

What is Skimming?

It is one of the types of reading. When a reader quickly reads only important points or main ideas of the available content we can call it skimming.

In skimming a reader avoid to read each and every word as the intention is to just to focus on main ideas or to get central idea of the content within short period of time.

Unnecessary information is completely neglected by the readers in skimming.

Examples-

  • When we read only headlines in newspapers while leaving the house for going to job.
  • Students read only important points before half and hour of examination.
  • Here their intention is not to focus on each word but to get only important information.
