Destri Wahyuningsih

Sari


Reading class refers to the readers’ ability to understand the information of reading text.
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 (general topic and main ideas). Scanning is
reading rapidly in order to find specific facts. By applying skimming and scanning techniques
in teaching reading, the college students will be easier to understand about reading text and
quickly to get information in a few minutes.
Keywords: the importance of reading, skimming and scanning techniques, skimming and
scanning for understanding, the benefits of skimming and scanning.
