Scanning is a skill all readers use in their L1 but not always in their L2. It means to look across a text very quickly to identify specific information. Students often tend to read on a wordby-word basis, sometimes actually following a finger moving slowly along the text as a word is decoded or understood. Tell students that if they want to find a specific piece of information in a text, then reading word-by-word is not a very efficient technique. Ask students why they would scan this text and direct them to the questions. Elicit or give the following answers: you might use the technique to know if this is a conversation among many people, or just a dialogue between two. You could set a very short time limit of, say, one minute to nudge students into scanning.
