Developing good study strategies is key to learning!
The key to developing good study strategies is frequency which is looking at not only how you are studying but how often. Many students’ tendency may be to wait till the test is about a week or less away to start studying. That approach results in not reviewing certain information until way after you initially learned it in lecture which is sometimes feels like that’s the first time you seen some of that information! What is way more effective is incorporating frequent review and study sessions into your weekly schedule. That’s even when the test is two-, four-, or even six-weeks away.
To master frequent studying, check out the worksheets on the Study Cycle which is a tool that can be used to help prepare for those upcoming exams and assignments. This study tool can help break the information you are learning into more manageable pieces, so you can retain the information better, which will allow you to be better engaged in the class. The study cycle can be used as a guide for studying, so you aren’t studying at the last minute, trying to cram everything in. This will help make your study time much more effective and will help you make the most out of your classes.
