What Is It? Making an inference involves using what you know to make a guess about what you don't know, or reading between the lines. Readers who make inferences use the clues in the text along with their own experiences to help them figure out what is not directly said, making the text personal and memorable. Helping students make texts memorable will help them gain more personal pleasure from reading, read the text more critically, and remember and apply what they have read. Why Is It Important?

When to use it:  to help you decide whether a book or journal is useful for your purpose; to get a general sense of the article structure, to help you locate relevant information; to help you to identify the sections of the text you may need to read and the sections you can omit. To preview, start by reading: §   the title and author details §   the abstract (if there is one) §   then read only the parts that ‘jump out’; that is: main headings and sub headings, chapter summaries, any highlighted text §   examine any illustrations, graphs, tables or diagrams and their captions, as these usually summarise the content of large slabs of text §   the first sentence in each paragraph           How To Use It :        When readers preview a text before
