Regarding the use of reading strategies, judge the statement below:
Effective use of skimming requires the reader to
process every word in a text to ensure complete
understanding of the material before moving on to scanning for specific information.
Regarding the use of reading strategies, judge the statement below:
Skimming is primarily used to locate specific
information within a text, such as dates or names, by
quickly moving the eyes over the content to find these
details without focusing on the entire text.
Regarding the use of reading strategies, judge the statement below:
Prediction as a reading strategy involves making
educated guesses about the content and direction of a
text based on its title, headings, and any accompanying
visuals before engaging in the actual reading.
Regarding the use of reading strategies, judge the statement below:
Scanning is an effective reading strategy when the
reader needs to quickly identify the overall gist of a text,
focusing on understanding the main ideas rather than
specific details.

Educating future technology engineers
While much of the world's wireless communications technologies, such as cell phones, run on 5G mobile networks, engineers already have their eyes on developing future-generation networks. One of these engineers is Yanchao Zhang, a professor of electrical engineering in the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering at Arizona State University.
Zhang runs the DOD Center of Excellence in Future
Generation Wireless Technology, or FutureG Center of
Excellence. Led by ASU and funded by the U.S.
Department of Defense (DOD), the center includes
collaborators from the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities
Development Command Army Research Laboratory, the
U.S. DOD and The Ohio State University.
The FutureG Center of Excellence aims to advance
mobile network technology for wireless communications
that are more secure, faster and more reliable. Artificial
intelligence, or AI, and machine learning are also up for
potential inclusion.
The center also has outreach and workforce
development initiatives to increase the number of workers
in the wireless communications engineering field. As part
of this initiative, the center hosted a five-day FutureG
Summer Research Camp on ASU's Tempe campus in
May that is planned yearly.
The inaugural camp hosted 25 undergraduate students from the School of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering and the School of Computing and Augmented Intelligence, both part of the Fulton Schools. The participants learned about a variety of engineering disciplines related to electronics, including cybersecurity, signal processing, augmented and virtual reality, or AR and VR.
To choose the 25 students, Zhang and his colleagues in the FutureG Center of Excellence — Antonia Papandreou-Suppappola and Chaitali Chakrabarti, both Fulton Schools professors of electrical engineering — selected from 78 applicants.
"I was thrilled to see so many motivated, highly qualified young minds interested in cutting-edge research topics," he says. "Notably, half of the participants were women and underrepresented minority students, who were selected based on the same criteria as all applicants."
In line with the Fulton Schools value of building a
foundation for all to be successful, students participated
in sessions each day featuring lectures and
demonstrations from experts in the topic areas. The
presenters beyond Zhang included a variety of Fulton
Schools electrical and computer engineering and computer science faculty members and external FutureG
Center of Excellence collaborators.
"The goal of this summer camp is to expose highly qualified Fulton Schools undergraduate students to the latest topics and opportunities in the future generation wireless technology field and within the FutureG Center of Excellence," Zhang says. "We aim to motivate their academic and research interests in the future wireless technology area, ultimately contributing to the U.S. workforce in this field."
Among the student participants inspired to further research future wireless communications technology is Diego Quintero, a Fulton Schools undergraduate student majoring in electrical engineering who just completed his sophomore year.
Before the program, Quintero was only considering studying electrical engineering through the Fulton Schools accelerated master's degree program, which enables students to complete graduate coursework while completing their bachelor's degree, saving them time. Now he's planning to apply to the program in the 2024− 25 academic year.
Quintero says the FutureG summer camp helped him understand how the engineering skills he learned in the classroom are applied to technology development.
"Learning about such fascinating advancements in the thriving tech industry has strengthened my ideologies and passion for pursuing a career in this field," he says. "There are so many interesting careers and research opportunities. I believe it's a great way to learn more about specific roles in engineering."
For Mounia Bazzi, an undergraduate electrical engineering student who just completed the first year of her program, the FutureG summer camp helped her build on principles she learned while exploring engineering specializations. While Bazzi initially learned about using the MATLAB programming software in her FSE 100: Introduction to Engineering class, she explored MATLAB's signal processing tools in a session led by Papandreou-Suppappola.
Bazzi found that hearing from graduate students who are working with session presenters was especially helpful in learning about research conducted at ASU. The presentations inspired her interest to pursue her own research, and she contacted Guoliang Xue, a Fulton Schools professor of computer science and engineering involved in the camp, to ask if she could work under him in fall 2024.
Bazzi says her favorite part of the experience was the final day of the camp, which took place at ASU's Media and Immersive eXperience Center, or MIX Center.
"The most fun part of the camp was experiencing AR and VR systems with Dr. Robert LiKamWa," Bazzi says. "After going through different VR immersive narratives, we formed groups and used Dreamscape to build our own VR world that we then got to experience."
The session led by LiKamWa, a Fulton Schools associate
professor of electrical engineering with a joint appointment in ASU's School of Arts, Media and Engineering, was also Shannen Aganon's favorite part of the camp.
"Exploring and developing VR experiences was both
exciting and educational," says Aganon, a rising senior
majoring in computer science. "It is definitely interesting
to see how immersive technology can transform so
much."
During the camp, Aganon aimed to learn more about different engineering fields within electrical engineering.
"Attending this camp session broadened my appreciation
of how different engineering disciplines interconnect and
definitely allowed me to reach my goal," she says.
Aganon says the camp confirmed her passion for engineering through the variety offered within the field and the hands-on collaborative activities. She also enjoyed the networking, new friendships and skills the camp taught her
"If you would like a unique way to gain hands-on
experience, this camp offers invaluable opportunities,"
Aganon says.
