We have beaten about the bush for so long. Now let us delve into the crux of the matter.
Here are five (5) secret tools to studying effectively.
TOOL 1.Your study environment.
Majority of us would prefer having a quiet environment that is set aside for study, while others can also cope studying in a noisy place. You know which best suits you, if you are the type that can study in a noisy environment and will not get distracted, you are good to go. But if you can't cope studying in a noisy place, never you do so because you will end up wasting your time and energy. If possible, use a desk or a table with plenty of space on which to spread out your work. To avoid being distracted always keep supplies such as pen and paper, a glass of water handy so you won't have to get up constantly. Note! If possible switch off your cell phone, turn off your TV sets and restrict visitors during the specified time for your study as such can cause unexpected distractions.
If you study with light, make sure that you have an adequate, glare-free lighting. This can reduce study fatigue and also protects your eye. Do not forget to check ventilation and room temperature. A cool room provides more invigorating study environment than a warm room does. What if you are the type that frequently fall asleep while studying? Always keep a mint close by to suck on or a chew gum to keep your mouth alert, if dizziness persist try going to the bathroom, splash cold or warm water on your face.
TOOL 2.Survey the material and make up questions.
When you glance through the material you are to study looking at subheadings, charts and so forth, you will get the overview of it. After surveying the material, pick a pen and a note. Make up questions base on subheadings or topic sentence, then keep the questions in mind before reading the material. This will keep your mind focused on what you read.
TOOL 3.Peruse the assigned material.
With the questions in mind, read the material carefully, looking for answers to those questions. While reading you may come across strange words, pause and check out the meaning of those words in your dictionary. Do not engage in fallacious reading, after reading if you do not grasp the meaning of what you have read, try reading through again. If you still do not fully understand it do not pretend as if you did, read through for the third and fourth time until you fully understand the section before you proceed.
TOOL 4.Meditation and envisaging.
Now that you have perused the material and you are sure that you fully grasp the meaning, next keep the material aside and ponder over what you have read, envisage or create a mental picture, try to relate the things you have read to the physical world. Afterwards, pick the questions you wrote down on the onset, try to recite the answers without looking at the material, writing the answers out can also help.
TOOL 5.Take a break and repeat the steps.
All work and no play, makes Jack a dull boy, so it applies to reading. One should not just study! study!! study!!! Without giving the brain time to rest. The Human brain is like a machine that works and needs adequate rest. If possible take a nap, as sleep can help in repairing and re-energizing your body system. Recreation also helps to enhance and exercise not just the brains but the whole body. Note! Be conscious of yourself not to sleep or play away the whole time. Make sure you repeat the steps, studying effectively is not a one time thing, but rather a regular routine is a part of studying effectively.
