difinition of scanning and prediction
They are skimming, scanning, reading for detail,intensive and extensive reading.
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. While skimming tells you what general information is within a section, scanning helps you locate a particular fact. Skimming is like snorkeling, and scanning is more like pearl diving. skimming in previewing (reading before you read), reviewing (reading after you read), determining the main idea from a long selection you don't wish to read, or when trying to find source material for a research paper. Use scanning in research to find particular facts, to study fact-heavy topics, and to answer questions requiring factual support.
Scanning and skimming can help you find specific information in a text. It allows you to avoid tertiary information and focus on the object of your search. The risk, of course, is not reading closely enough and missing important information or context.
if ur just talking in general, then the answer is tht skimming is just hitting the surface and not really examining it...scanning is taking a good look at it, but a quick look at that...but if its some scientific term or something...than i have absolutely NO clue
Skimming and scanning are both ways of reading through some passage. Scanning refers to the act of briefly reading through the passage. You do not go into detail to interpret every single detail. The purpose of scanning is to just simply know what the passage is talking about, who are the characters, and some other information that is more of general. Skimming refers to reading through a passage with great precision. The reader will be looking for clues and evidence so as to help him interpret what exactly in detail was happening and etc.
