STUDY SKILLS

EFFECTIVE AND EFFICIENT

Summarize main and supporting ideas in your own words. Rewording improves understanding. Discuss material with a classmate. Review your notes and book as soon as possible after instruction. Immediate review strengthens understanding. Write your own test questions. Review answers you struggled to find. Review questions in text, study guide and/or notes. Focus on answers you could not immediately find. Use as many senses as you can: read, say out loud, write down, listen. The more you see, say, hear and feel the answers, the more they will stick in your memory.
