25. How To Increase Your Study Skills
So Saul clothed David with his armor, and
he put a bronze helmet on his head; he also clothed him with a coat of mail.
David fastened his sword to his armor and tried to walk, for he had not tested
them. And David said to Saul, "I cannot walk with these, for I have not
tested them." So David took them off. Then he took his staff in his hand;
and he chose for himself five smooth stones from the brook, and put them in a
shepherd's bag, in a pouch which he had, and his sling was in his hand. And he
drew near to the Philistine. 1 Samuel 17:38-40, NKJV
Today, I
want to show you the talk about How
To Increase Your Study Skills.
Welcome.
Jason
Newman suggests 12 Study Skill tips. They are simple, straightforward, and will
help you identify the learning strategy that is most efficient for you. 1 Samuel 17:38-40 above shows that you can
achieve the most success in life by using practical, positive, legal methods
that you are most familiar with.
Although
they seemed weaker, David’s sling and stones proved more efficient for
defeating the giant than king Saul’s armour. Jason Newman suggests:
There
are three learning styles, Visual or based on sight, Auditory or based on
hearing, and Tactile, based on the sense of touch. Identify which will work
best for you find ways to adapt or code your class information in your
preferred learning style.
1.
Study
short and often.
2.
Set a
specific goal for each study session. Prioritize assignments.
3.
Start
assignments as soon as they are given.
4.
Study
your most difficult subjects first.
5.
Review
your notes regularly (each day for approximately 10 minutes right after class
is ideal).
6.
Break up
and vary your work (e.g., switch to another subject when you become tired of
the one you’re working on).
7.
Stay on
top of your work – doing a little consistently is easier than doing a lot all
at once.
8. Learn
"actively". This means doing something that will help facilitate
learning such as writing or typing notes, creating a study guide/flashcards, or
reciting and repeating the information out loud.
9. Active
learning increases the likelihood of remembering the information later.
10. Use
study guides/workbooks that are available with your textbooks as a method for
quizzing yourself before a test.
11.Reduce
interferences while you are studying. Find a quiet environment (leave your
residence if there are distractions).
12. Attend
all of your classes.
Use all these 12 tips as a lifestyle.
Don’t compromise on your good habits. Stay focused on your academic goals and whatever
happens, know that God will come through for you!
Continue to expect the best from yourself and continue to maintain a
great attitude regardless whatever happens.
