What is PhotoReading?
PhotoReading is a whole-mind reading system developed by Paul R. Scheele of Learning Strategies Corporation. It uses five steps: Prepare, Preview, PhotoRead, Postview and Activate, to help you get what you need from written material in less time.
Who invented PhotoReading?
Paul R. Scheele developed PhotoReading in 1985 in response to a request for accelerated learning training from IDS/American Express. Public classes began in Minnesota in January 1986.
