How to read research paper, textbook, long text content?

[shivajikobardan]

I can read less text content easily. my way of reading it is to make slides of all those texts and learn from the slides.

But I have issue with reading huge huge texts as you know in this case it will require too much time when I do this. Is there way to simplify this reading style?

eg-: of sth that I want to read is this.https://static.googleusercontent.com/media/research.google.com/en//archive/gfs-sosp2003.pdf

It takes me 45 minutes to read 3 paragraph and comprehend it at least.

If I go that way, you can imagine, how long it takes me to read a research paper. Probably a week to read a research paper lol. Even reading articles in internet is a hassle for me if they are longer. If I just read what I need to learn it is easy as it will be few paragraphs but if I have to learn sth else long it is pain to me as I can't do it timely manner.

Are there any udemy courses that teach how to read textbooks for university students that you are aware of?

Yes, there are several courses available on Udemy that can help university students to learn how to read textbooks more effectively. Courses like "Speed Reading for University Students" and "Strategies for Reading Textbooks Effectively" teach effective techniques for quickly understanding and retaining the information in a textbook. These courses focus on teaching students how to use their existing knowledge to understand new topics, how to actively engage with the material they are reading, and how to identify important concepts quickly.
