Effective study methods
Part 1
My test study method: when it comes time to study for test, I usually
start 2-3 days before the test. I go through my notes and make flashcards on
what was important for those sections, playing special attention to what the
teacher said would be on the test if there was review session. Also, I go
through the book and read the inset stories and add to my flashcards. If there
are practice problems or online assignments or old test, I use those to help me
study for the test as well. Once the tests, I use those help to help me study
for the test as well. Once the test is over, I keep the flashcards so that I
have them for the next test or for the final. Flashcards are a marvelous
learning tool. They key to remembering something is to repeat it numerous
times-spaced rehearsal. If you forgot something, it is because you haven’t
repeated it enough times for an extended period of time. Repetition is a law of
learning; therefore, to learn and remember, to recall, it is mandatory that you
repeat over and over the things you desire to learn and remember. You may be
thinking, “Oh, no repeating something.” You need to get used to it. For
example, the more you practice a song on the piano, the better you become at
playing that song. Learning and remembering is like playing the piano-the more
you practice saying or doing it the better you can remember it because you have
repeated it numerous times since first being expose to it. So, practice rehearsing those thing you desire to remember, and they will
stick with you.
Practice---à proficiency-àpleasure
The better you remember, the more
pleasure you obtain from studying and learning.
