contents Enhancing Professional Development through Reading Professional Literature. Slusarski, Susan B. Adult Education Adult Educators Independent Reading Independent Study Individualized Reading Professional Development Reading Interests Reading Material Selection Reading Materials Reading Programs Reading professional literature may be undertaken without a large investment of time or money, yet it still provides a way to increase one's professional knowledge and maintain competencies. To be successful in one's reading, the adult education practitioner needs to consider three aspects of a professional reading program: finding the time, locating the resources, and using effective reading strategies. Three simple, yet effective, time-management techniques--scheduling, planning, and prioritizing--help the practitioner overcome one of the biggest obstacles to reading--finding the time. Practitioners may obtain reading materials through publishers, memberships in professional organizations, or from the library. The following are some shortcuts to professional reading: read book reviews and capsules; get on publishers' mailing lists; make use of abstracts; scan, skim, and skip; and follow leads. The following techniques require more time: use critical reading skills; learn with others; and apply the three-step approach--(1) know what to look for in evaluating research; (2) follow the "three times philosophy": expect to read the research article more than once; and (3) learn the language of research.
