CRCB: CH 6 SUPPORTING DETAILS
There are two types of supporting details and they are major supporting details and minor supporting details. Major supporting details are the ideas and arguments that support the main idea. Minor supporting details clarify and enhance the major supporting details. You have to be able to prioritize major and minor details. Major details are crucial to understanding the main idea. Minor details are interesting but less helpful and take up your memory. When looking for the bigger picture in a longer reading you should prioritize the supporting details. Longer readings usually have more than one main idea and you should break them down so you can get a better understanding of a reading. A mind map is a good tool to use to help you break down the reading.
