How to Take on College Studying

Part2

Choose Where to Study

Where you should study depends on two factors: the environment in which you are best able to concentrate and the type of work you are planning to do.

·         The best places to study have good light, a comfortable temperature and enough desk space – usually your dorm room, your apartment or the library.

·         For completing problem sets or brainstorming possible test question, you may want to study with a group or a least in a setting where fellow students are available for discussion.

·         When you are reading book chapters or working on a research paper, you are probably better off in a less social environment.

Improver Your Study Habits

Here are simple step you can take to help you get a handle on studying:

·         Have a routine for where and when to study.

·         Choose reasonable and specific goals that you can accomplish for each study session.

·         Do things that are harder or require more intense thought at your most productive time of the day.

·         Take breaks if you need them so you don’t waste time looking at material but not absorbing it.

·         Keep up with the workload and seek help when need it.

10 Times Management Tips for Student

Tip 5-10

Tip 5. Review Your Notes Every Day.

Reviewing helps you reinforce what you’ve learned, so you need less time to study before a test. You’ll also be ready if you get called on in class or have to take a pop quiz.

Tip 6. Get a good Night Sleep.

Your brain needs rest to perform at its peak. Lack of sleep makes the day seem longer and your tasks seem more difficult.

Tip 7. Communicate Your Schedule to Others.

If phone calls or text messages are proving to be a distraction, tell your friends that you are only available at certain times of day and not to expect a response at other times.

Tip 8. Become a Taskmaster.

Give  yourself a time budget and plan your activities accordingly. Figure out how much free time you have each week before you add any commitments.

Tip 9. Don’t Waste Time Agonizing.

Instead of agonizing and procrastinating, just do it. Wasting an entire evening worrying about something that you’re supposed to be doing is not productive, and can increase your stress .

7 Habits of Highly Successful Teens
Habit 7 Part 1
Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw
Teens should never get too busy living to take time to renew
themselves. When teens “sharpen the saw” they are keeping their
personal self-sharp so that they can better deal with life. It means
regularly renewing and strengthening the four keys dimension of
life-body, mind, and soul.
1.      Body. Eat wholesome foods, fruit, veggies, legumes avoid illegal
drugs, smoking, alcohol, tobacco products, tattooing. Exercise
regularly and effectively. Getting plenty of rest at night. Get to bed
early at night and get up early each morning. “early to bed early to
rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.”
2.      Mind. Think positively. Read. Study. Think. Analyze. Seek to read a
good book each month. Then each week. Ask intelligent questions.
Observe. Develop your mind through positive “self-talk.”

“So often, in our quest to be more popular and to be part of the “in-group,” we lose sight of things that are far more important.”

Sean Covey

Reflection: I think this quote means that when you trying to be a part in something you lose sight of the important thing in life. Like if you are a good student who gets good grade and you want to be popular you lose time to study and you stated getting bad grades.

10.  Successful student are good time managers. Successful students do not procrastinate. They have learned that time control is life control and have consciously chosen to be in control of their life.

An elemental truth: you will either control time or be controlled by it! It’s your choice: you can lead or be led, establish control or relinquish control, steer your own course or follow others. Failure to take control of their own time is probably the no.1 study skill problem for college student. It ultimately causes many students to become non-student! Procrastinator is good excuse-makers. Don’t make academics harder on yourself than it has to be. Stop procrastinating. And don’t wait until tomorrow to do it.

The 10 items listed above are paraphrased from an article by Larry M Ludewig called the Ten Commandment for Effective Study Skills which appeared in the teaching professor, December, 1992.
