How to Take on College Studying
Part 2
Choose Where to Study
Where you should study depends on 2 factors: the environment
in which you are best able to concentrate and the type of work you are planning
to do.
The best places have good light, a comfortable
temperature and enough desk space-----usually your dorm room, your apartment or
the library.
For completing problems sets or brainstorming possible
test questions, you may want to study with a group or at least ion a setting
where fellow students are available for discussion.
When you are reading book chapters or working on a
research paper, you are probably better off in a less social environment.
Improve Your Study Habits
Here are some simple steps you can take to help you get
a handle on studying:
·
Have a routine for when and where you want to study.
·
Choose reasonable and specific goals that you can accomplish for
each study session.
·
Do things that are harder or require more intense thought at the
most productive time of the day.
·
Take breaks if you need them so you don’t waste time looking at
material but not absorbing it.
·
Get to know students whom you respect and can study with or contact
to ask questions.
·
Keep up with the work load and seek help when you need it.
Choose The Right!!!!!
