The short answer
Why is re-reading a PDF so ineffective — and what works?
Re-reading a PDF feels productive but rarely builds understanding. What works is turning it into an active lesson: have the material taught to you in order, ask about the hard parts, then quiz yourself on it. With eZine, you upload the PDF and it teaches the content back to you step by step, then generates practice from it.
