Studying

Study Study Study!


There are many different techniques when in comes to studying.

The quesrtions we were left with in class was: How do you study? What is your process? Does it differ depending on the subject? How do you feel about the results?

I usually study in my room, where it is quiet. My process in studying includes me going through my notes and the textbook and writing down the key points on a piece of paper. Once I am done going through all my notes and textbook i study my one piece of paper over and over again until I can actually visualize the paper in my head. Then when the test comes I can actually imagine my study sheet in my head and remember the answers to the test. I do study like this for most of my subjects but of course their are a couple courses i study different for. Math I just do practice questions over again and in English I usually just read a book, there are many other good strategies to studying.

A few other I have thought of are flashcards, mapping, association and connections (associating and connecting the key terms with situations on ones own life). I have the best results when I have my study sheets memorized because it is much easier for me to recall information when I am in the test. I use to have horrible study techniques, such as cramming before the test; now I know how to study properly and my marks have been greatlly positively effected.
