Though, instead of creating random scenes, you sketch images the words you’re reading describe. With a novel, for example, that involves visualizing the characters, scenery, and everything that happens, just as the author describes. If reading about a process, visualize each step or phase of the process from beginning to end. If, on the other hand, the material is a tutorial or instruction manual, visualize exactly how each step should be performed. This is the essence of visualization during reading.
