Reading can be quite wide you know and we all know there are different ways of reading. apart from reading on your phone or reading from a book, classifying reading can be based on the following and it also depends on what you are reading about to make it suitable for being classified, or for one to pick a particular choice.
WHAT IS READING ?
The process of looking at a collection of written words and deducing understanding from them is known as "reading." When we read, our eyes receive the following inscriptions (letters, punctuation marks, and spaces) and our brain decodes them into words, sentences, and paragraphs that share information with us.
Reading can help you improve as a writer and public speaker. Reading skills can help you advance and accomplish your objectives by allowing you to personalize how you read. Choosing the right reading skill will improve your reading ability and assist you in reaching your goal.
There are types of reading which include;
SCANNING
SKIMMING
INTENSIVE READING
EXTENSIVE READING
Someone may skim through a phone, probably a particular word to get the meaning, or when buying a book to quickly get what the book is about before buying.
While scanning through a book or phone, the reader can find informations that is useful to the him or her, more like reading to get a particular knowledge of something.
In intensive reading, one goes deeper than just reading like reading a novel, one who does intensive reading goes as far as searching for the meaning of phrases and understanding what a sentence means.
Extensive reading is more like reading to understand something like a student reading for an exam to get the knowledge.
So for me, I do refer to reading the old fashion way, that is with a book, except I have an important thing to read on my phone, For instance, last week before I got my textbooks, I took some shots of some pages of the book, so I could read at home, but it wasn't so easy reading from my phone and for that matter an extensive reading at that, I kept getting notifications from hive, Whatsapp, Facebook, etc it wasn't easy reading from there, I had to drop my phone at a point and pick up another textbook to read, I also put my phone on silent, so I could concentrate.
That doesn't mean one cant read from the phone, I do read stories from Wattpad and booknet, but those book are for entertainment sometimes i fall asleep while reading especially at night.
There are some persons who do read extensively from their mobile phones and are comfortable doing so, i will say one should do whars best for him or herself, i dont like reading extensively on my phone cause of my eye sight, which even from reading a book for a long time it still makes me see in blurrs for a while before it clears, ( will be needing a glass one of this days) . people do whats best for them regardless.
But for this girl, lets continue reading the old fashioned way 😁😀😀
