This Week You Have Learned About The Importance Of Knowing How To Read This week you have learned about the importance of knowing how to read like a graduate student. The tools you have accessible to you now should have you getting through your materials and grasping the important concepts with ease. In the article, “Read Like a Graduate Student, not a Mystery Fan,” you learned various techniques and were provided tools that can be used to help you along the way. In your discussion, expand upon what you learned about yourself and your reading style through reading this article. Do you or will you find that the tools listed will be helpful to you as you progress in your studies? Now that you are a graduate student, which of these techniques do you feel will benefit you most as you continue your education? Which of these techniques do you feel will benefit you most as you grow in your career? Your initial response should be a minimum of 150 words. Your work should be in your own words and should include research to support your response. Be sure to avoid Wikipedia as a resource as this is not a reliable source.
