Spanish to English Other General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters
I know this is a prety basic question, but would this be "anticipate the answers while reading the book"? I sense the meaning here but I'm not coming up with a clear translation:

Ella nota que este es un enfoque emprendedor de la enseñanza. Lo más importante no es necesariamente acertar o errar preguntas en un test, o anticipar las respuestas leyendo en el libro, sino aprender a hacer conexiones, aprender a pensar.

get ready-made answers from a book

Less literal, but I do believe it captures the meaning here.

Anticipate the answers by reading the (a) book

Otra idea .....

Dentro del concepto "enfoque emprendedor de la enseñanza" que menciona el texto, creo que el sentido está en aprender a pensar descartando así respuestas que tengan que ver con memorizar, consultar material escrito.

creo "anticipar las respuestas leyendo el libro" tiene que ver con el encontrar las respuestas en los libros.
