How to use "Skimming" in context?
Skimming is the act of reading only the headlines of a document, article, or web page, in order to get a general idea about the content. When skimming, it is important to not focus on the specific details, as this will lead to a less accurate understanding of the information.
A skimming technique is often used when initializing a new task, in order to get an overview of the content and how important some of the details may be. While skimming, it can be helpful to take mental notes of key points, in order to better remember or relate the information later.
