Strategies for Student
Success
When you study, do you find it difficult staying focused? Are you easily distracted? Do you dread opening the books
and getting started?
Have you ever been disappointed with your
results – they didn't measure up with the time you put into studying?
Do you suffer from exam anxiety?
Or is time the
issue? You have too many other commitments, yet you'd like better
grades!
If you said yes to
any of these questions, Study Smart
accelerated learning and study skills can help.
Whether you're an
adult learner, a high school, college or university student,
Study Smart will help you optimize
your study habits. The workshop
will give you tools and techniques from the most up-to-date research in
Accelerated Learning and Neurophysiology.
You'll learn the
‘best practices’ of brain based learning.
How to
study:
-
Enter the
learning state – the first step for successful learning strategies
-
Make it fun,
distinctive and brain friendly (brains hate being bored!)
-
Tackle a new
text book – sketching out the bare bones of the content in about 35
minutes (do this before the first class and you'll listen
more, write less and have better quality lecture notes)
-
Reduce the
time you spend making notes and studying for exams
-
Speed up
reading and comprehension (use a ‘quantum’ reading
technique)
-
Improve memory
and recall – use mental fixatives for sticky data
When writing exams:
-
Get better marks
– use a proven process for exam writing success
-
Maintain a calm and relaxed state of
awareness
-
Retrieve information,
recover elusive data
-
Neutralize exam
anxiety
Mental conditioning, mental toughness:
-
Why learning is
not all in your head
-
The advantage of
full body learning
-
How to Stop exam
anxiety before it happens
-
Clear learning
blocks, out-grown beliefs beginning with “I'm too ...”
“I'm too busy ...” “I can't ...” “I can't
learn math ...” “I always ...” “I always go
blank”
Let’s face it, we spend more time on tasks
we are interested in and enjoy. We also learn best when our
curiosity is tweaked. But the human brain simply doesn’t function
well when it is bored. Take away
the interest and the learning drops, even if the effort and study time
increases!
We can’t take boring
and uninteresting courses out of the curriculum, but we can add
fun, curiosity and creativity to any subject.
Put the drudgery and pressure of
studying firmly in the past. Use a process that
lets you learn the way your brain learns best. And as studying
becomes more interesting and enjoyable you’ll probably do more of it!
