^C^1DEMO: POWER READING
^Cfrom
^CLSR Learning Associates


Many of us find that the reading methods we learned while we were having fun
with Dick and Jane don't work so well now that we have to keep up with on-the-
job literature or advanced schoolwork. Our reading lists can be overwhelming.

Fortunately, there are a number of software packages on the market that can help
us become faster, more efficient readers. One such package, LSR's POWER READING,
a module of their Personal Learning System, uses a variety of reading lessons
and drills to increase the user's reading speed -- without compromising
understanding of what has been read.  Unlike other speed reading packages, POWER
READING does not stress skimming or scanning words.

When you run the demo program on the second disk, you will see that a POWER
READING lesson includes drills on:

-- Vocabulary

-- Flash cards

-- Reading words in clusters

-- Reading articles for speed and comprehension.

As you go through the demo, it will also evaluate your reading speed and
project what kind of speed you could attain if you completed the full POWER
READING program.

Of course, POWER READING requires that you invest time and effort.  But because
the program can evaluate progress and gear the difficulty of its reading
drills accordingly, your reading ablities should constantly improve.  With the
POWER READING program, you won't waste time on a plateau.

If you are intrigued by the demo, you may purchase POWER READING directly from
us at a special discount price.  To order, use the printed brochure that came
in your BIG BLUE DISK package, or use your Visa, MasterCard, or American
Express credit card and call us toll-free: 1-800-831-2694, 8-5 central time.
