Study Tecniques
  1. Create Schedule
    1. It helps to have some plans in motion so you can make the most of your study time.
      1. Set Alarms - Set alarms to remind you about your study plans. A regular reminder keeps you honest and your plans on track.
        1. Use a Wall Planner - Stick a calendar or wall planner up so you can see it whenever you're studying. Mark it up with important dates, like exams and assignment due dates. Use it to block out your regular study timetable too.
          1. Make To-Do Lists - Lists break tasks down into manageable chunks. At the start of the week, make a list of the things that you need to have done by the end of the week. Make a to-do list at the start of each study session too, so that you're clear about what you need to be doing with your time.
            1. Set Time Limits - Before you start your study session, have a look at your to-do list and give yourself a set time to spend on each task. If you don't get something done in the set time, consider whether it's the best use of your time to keep going with it, or to start working on something else.
            2. How do I concept map?
              1. First reject the idea of an outline, or of paragraphs using sentences. Write down the most important word or short phrase or symbol for the center.
                1. Think about it; circle it. Post other important concepts and their words outside the circle
              2. Taking Lecture Notes
                1. It is important to take lecture notes so that you will have a record of what the professor thinks is important.
                  1. You should take down the main ideas and as much additional information as necessary in order for you to have a fully developed concept for later review.
                    1. Preparation For Notetaking:
                      1. Read the assignment before class.
                        1. Review your notes from the previous class.
                          1. Sit where you can hear the professor and see the chalkboard.
                    2. Mnemonic technique
                      1. As is often the case, it could be a phrase, a short song, or something that is quite easily remembered, that we use to remember something that would otherwise be difficult to remember.
                        1. Colors of the rainbow/spectrum A number of mnemonic devices have been made to help people to remember the order of the colors of the spectrum, proving the power of mnemonics in revising for exams: Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain This phrase, easily remembered when thought about for a few seconds, borrows the first letter of colors in the spectrum as the first letters of each of its words (e.g. R in Richard represents red, Y in York helps us to remember Yellow, etc) Sing a Rainbow Song Many readers will recall singing the 'I can sing a rainbow' song in school in order to remember the colors of the rainbow. This song is useful in remembering easily in that it uses a tune that's easy to memorize, so that we associate the list of colors as we think of the tune.
