INSIGHT

Highlighting As A Living Outline

  • Hierarchical highlighting maps colors to outline levels, showing how clauses support the main point.
  • Reagan Rose learned this from Dr. Greg Harris and uses it to reveal paragraph structure visually.
ADVICE

Color-Code Each Hierarchy Level

  • Use one color per hierarchy level so subordinate clauses visually nest under main points.
  • Reagan uses six colors: yellow, blue, green, purple, orange, and pink to show levels.
ADVICE

Slow Down And Study Paragraphs

  • Slow down and study paragraphs instead of rushing through chapters for volume's sake.
  • Highlighting forces you to understand the passage before marking it and builds visual memory.
