Answer 1

Answer:

kObviously it’s not enough to just recognize your own learning style.

Yet this raises an interesting point. A lot of us know HOW to study better, but like with most things in life we don’t apply the information to make things happen.

So make a conscious effort to adapt your methods of studying to what suits you best and you’ll exponentially speed up your learning curve.

For instance:

If you respond well to visual cues, draw up mind maps, use color extensively in your note-taking, and watch relevant YouTube videos.

If you’re an auditory learner, try creating rhymes to remember facts, or listen to podcasts about your topics.

A reading / writing learner will find traditional study a lot easier than other learners – spend extra time just reading the relevant textbooks and making study notes.

Again, kinesthetic learners find traditional study the most difficult and are likely to excel at more practical subjects with the opportunity to put learning directly into practice.

3. Study In a Variety of Environments

Experts used to preach studying in the same room every time so your brain could click into focus mode as soon as you sat down.

But in recent years, an alternative view has gained a lot of support. Research actually shows  you can focus better by regularly changing your study location.

The theory is that studying material in a variety of places helps your brain build up different associations in relation to the material you study.

Leading to stronger memories and better recall.

You must need to access your study practices because,

Assessment for Learning focuses on the opportunities to develop student's ability to evaluate themselves, to make judgements about their own performance and improve upon it. It makes use of authentic assessment methods and offers lots of opportunities for students to develop their skills through Assessments.

To improve your study Routine, start with setting healthy and attainable objectives, and work your way up. For example, instead of trying “to memorize all facts surrounding World War II” immediately, make your goal to understand a handful of events that led to World War II. The latter is a feat that is both less intimidating and highly integral to your understanding of history—and from there, you can work your way up to more facts.

Plan a detailed, time balanced schedule for studying and other activities you do. Divide your study hours equally for all your subjects. Study at a set time in a consistent place. And other important point, You must take a break for a while.
