The Four Reading Levels

1. Elementary: What does the text say? Literacy.
2. Inspectual: What is this article/book about? Superficial, skimming.
3. Analytical: Is the information / argument good? Meaning, perspective and use.
4. Synoptic: Comparative. Trying to incorporate multiple points of view into our own view.

Nothing I want to quote from the article by Bruno Boksic on this topic. But, I thought it was a useful mental model.
