Effective Study Methods Part 1.

Effective Study Methods Part 1

My Test Study Method: When it comes time to study for the test, I usually start 2-3 days before the test. I go through my notes and make flashcards on what was important to those sections, paying special attention to what the teacher said would be on the test if there was a 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 tests, I use those to help me study for the test as well. Once the test is over, I keep the flashcards so that I can have them for the next test or the final. Flashcards are a marvelous learning tool. The key to remembering something is to repeat times-spaced rehearsal. If you forget something, it is because you haven’t repeated it enough times for an extended period of time. Repetition is the 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. Look now at what you remember. You remember it because you have repeated it numerous times since first being exposed to it. So, practice rehearsing those things you desire to remember, and they will stick with you.

Practice à Proficiencyà Pleasure

The better you remember, the more pleasure you obtain from studying and learning.

Academic Success Part 2

Laura B.’s Academic Story
In high school I was one of the good students who didn't really have to study to be good student. The information that I took for notes in class usually sunk in enough for me to be able to get on the tests by simply reviewing the material just before the class began. It wasn't that I didn't try, I had a 4.0 all throughout high school, but I never had to put forth much of an effort to get the results that I wanted to see. In collage however, that changed. Not only did I start studying and reading the book, but I began to understand that the little tiny facts were just as important as the general concepts. My overall study method: I do the reading that is required for the classes, and try to keep it up. If id o fall behind, I usually use the notes in class and actually attend every class that I can. Sometimes, with volleyball, it’s tough because we are on the road a lot, but if I do miss class of volleyball I make sure that I get the notes from another student in the class. Also, for a subject such as chemistry, I do practice problems to help me understand what the materials mean.

"The Metamorphosis of Narcissus"
I see the Same Two Pictures in One. Just One is Quite Different. The Color is Different. The Setting is also Different. I think this Painting Tells me it's about Nature. How it isn't Perfect. It's Different in a Strange Way, as Well. I think Dali is Unique. He's Creative. And Paints Differently.

Heather A.’s Academic Success Story 

In high school, I didn’t study much in groups as I do in high school. I feel I learn better when I can teach other people information and we can exchange notes taken in class because sometimes other students pick up on more information than others.
My overall study method: I prefer to study in small groups and practice problems where I can work out the methods verbally with others. My test study method: I have very different techniques. For financial tests, I try to work on problems given in class as well as problems from power points and homework. When it comes to marketing classes, I review my notes and try to make diagrams to describe different processes.
My time management secret: One of my biggest secrets is to look over the information that you just learned when class is over. After reviewing the information, it sticks a little bit better than waiting until the night before the test.
How I deal with multiple projects/tests: I try to work on whatever has the shortest deadline and work from there. My overall study method: I tend to do massive studying blocks of about an hour or so in order to really learn the material.

You can Succeed in School If You Will – Part 04


As Kennedy lay crumpled in her hospital bed following the accident, she realized that many of her wounds were invisible
. “After the car accident, I suffered from low self-esteem and depression,” she said. “For years, I allowed someone I loved to physically, mentally and emotionally abuse me.”

She had previously tried taking a few DCCC classes, but said she was immature and not ready for academic challenge. She dropped out. After the accident, she returned to DCCC to take cosmetology classes. She left school a second time and began working as a certified nursing assistant. After yet another car accident, she felt unstable, hopeless, and didn’t know what to do.
