How to Study
How you study depends on the subject to be studied and the techniques that work best for you. In general, use as many 'senses' as possible when studying. Use your sense of sight by LOOKING/READING the information to be reviewed. Use the computer or paper and pencil {TACTILE) to take notes on the main points of the subject or topic. SAY the information out loud, to yourself or to someone else to practise your knowledge. Have a family member or friend ask you questions on the study material. LISTEN to the question, then answer it out loud or in writing. If you are studying for a math, practise a variety of questions to test your knowledge of the math processes.
When to Study Allocate enough time to study thoroughly. Studying for short periods of time over several days is often better than trying to study all in one session the night before. Last minute cramming for a test can be beneficial on the morning of test day, as long as it is in addition to regular studying, and NOT the only means of studying. Where to Study
Find a suitable place to study. It should be quiet, free of distractions and a place that will help motivate you to study.
