Studying can be rewarding but also nerve-racking, especially when it comes to learning scientific facts, formulas and theories. Just the way there are simple mistakes that one needs to avoid when preparing for exams, there are things you should make sure you do when it comes to learning.
Read to know about a few of them:
Usually, we all work effectively in our own different ways and out of the recommended approaches to boosting information, it can be hard to know what will work best for us. However, it is worth to test a few of them and focus on the methods that seem to be the most effective for you. Here are a few tried approaches to revision that lead to a positive result.
1. Go for a Brisk walk before Studying
Getting some fresh air can be much more than just using an opportunity to clear your head. Studies show that the benefit of going for a brisk walk before revising is much higher in comparison to simply sitting at home. Students who have been on a short paced walk before revision have been shown to have a significantly higher rate than all those who haven’t.
2. Say things out loud
Find a place with no distractions and go through loud with what you have learned. Repeat this for a few times. Speaking out your words as opposed to seeing them written as simple text will make it easier for the information to stay with you and you will gain confidence about the topic at hand.
3. Share with someone else what you have learned
Students learning from one another is a popular technique used by teachers in schools and universities. It is a very powerful teaching strategy that enables students to feel more confident about a particular topic, whilst also making it easier for students to understand something explained in a classmate’s term.
4. Choose Fonts wisely
People remember a lot more information that is written in an unfamiliar font than that which is written in a more familiar, easy to read font. By making the brain work harder at reading, you are made to focus more which pays off.
5. Practice Mindfulness
Studying for exams is intense and stressful at times, mindfulness can equip you with the tools that are needed to calm your mind and revise more effectively.
Stick with the techniques that work for you and make sure you give yourself regular breaks. All your mind and body needs are regular breaks to get recharged.
