Alejandro is a history buff, especially when it comes to the civil war. He is excited to be taking his first college course in American history, but he discovers in his reading that some of the information in his textbook differs in some ways from what he has read in the past. There seem to be differing interpretations about the squabbles between Civil War generals and differing opinions about
the reasons some battles were lost or won. To increase his understanding of what he is reading in his textbook, he checks out some other textbooks and also makes an appointment with his professor so he can investigate the new information that he is reading. He then constructs a mind map that compares the various interpretations of some of the major events of the civil war. Alejandro is using a strategy called a. page-flipping. b. questioning. c. study-reading. d. cross-referencing.
