Answer 3

Learn how to study. It sounds simple, but it is honestly a skill that you have to learn. I can't count the number of A students who got all the way to college and suddenly started getting lower grades because they didn't know how to study and were used to "winging it" on tests because they were smart. I have also seen B and C students who graduated as A students because they learned how to and did study, they weren't necessarily the smartest people in the world, but they learned how to retain information.

Studying includes knowing how to actively listen to a lecture and take good notes, actively read and outline a chapter, and asking good questions about the subject matter. It basically requires training your brain on how to compartmentalize information into outline form. This way you can remember certain things by placing them into a sub-category. If you take the time to learn how to study and DO study, you will be very successful. good luck!

Answer 4

The simplest way is to keep studying. By doing this you shall also develop a good work ethic for the time when you leave school behind, and start working for a living.

Start self studies with ur friends, and try to be with those guys/ gals who are week in studies and then try to teach them each and every point very briefly as ur teacher do while ur lectures. Then u defenietly got the result.

Thorndike’s Laws of Learning

• Law of Readiness: People learn best when they are ready to learn.

• Law of Exercise: People can enhance their memory through repeti-tion, based on drill and practice. Those things repeated are best remembered.

• Law of Effect: Learning is strengthened when it is accompanied with a pleasant or nonthreatening situation or environment but is decreased when associated with an unpleasant situation or envi-ronment.

• Law of Primacy: First impressions are often strong, almost unshak-able. Things learned first stay with us longer.

• Law of Intensity: Learners learn more from doing the real thing than a substitute.

• Law of Recency: This law basically means, all things being equal, things most recently learned are best remembered.


The Five Truths of Learning

1. It is OK to make mistakes.

2. Everyone learns in her own unique way and according to her own clock.

3. It is intelligent to ask for help. No one has to do it alone.

4. We can do more and learn more when we are willing to take risks.

5. Everyone needs to think and learn.


20 MEMORY TECHNIQUES

Experiment with the following techniques to make a flexible, custom-made memory system that fits your learning style. The 20 techniques are divided into four categories, each of which represents a general principle for improving memory.

1. Organize it. Organized information is easy to find.

2. Use your body. Learning is an active process; get all your senses involved.

3. Use your brain. Work with your memory, not against it.

4. Recall it. This is easier when you use the other principles to store information.
The first three categories (1 - 16 techniques) are about storing information effectively.

Most memory battles are won or lost here. ORGANIZE IT

1. Learn from the general to the specific.
• Look at the big picture: Use surveying, reconnaissance, and skimming techniques.
• If you’re lost, step back and look at the big picture.

2. Make it meaningful.
• Know what you want from your education, then look for connections between
what you want and what you are studying.

3. Create associations.
• When you introduce new information, you can recall it more effectively if you
store it near similar or related information.
USE YOUR BODY

4. Learn it once, actively.
• Action is a great memory enhancer.

5. Relax.
• When we’re more relaxed, we absorb new information quicker and recall it with greater accuracy.


6. Create pictures.
• Relationships within and among abstract concepts can be “seen” and recalled
easily when they are visualized.

7. Recite and repeat.
• When you repeat something out loud, you anchor the concept in two different senses.
First, you’re saying it, and secondly, you’re hearing it.

8. Write it down.
• Writing a note to yourself helps you remember an idea, even if you never look at the note again.
USE YOUR BRAIN

9. Reduce interference.
• Find a quiet place that is free from distraction.

10. Use daylight.
• Many people can concentrate better during the day.

11. Over learn.
• One way to fight mental fuzziness is to learn more than you intended.

12. Escape the short-term memory trap.
• Short-term memory can decay after a few minutes and it rarely lasts more than
several hours. A short review within minutes or hours of a study session can move material from short-term memory to long-term memory.

13. Distribute learning.
• You can get more done when you take regular breaks, and you can use them as
mini-rewards.
• When you are engrossed in a textbook and cannot put it down, when you are
consumed by an idea for a paper and cannot think of anything else—keep going.

14. Be aware of attitudes.
• All of us can forget information that contradicts our opinions.
• One way to befriend a self-defeating attitude about a subject is to relate it to
something you are interested in.
• We remember what we find interesting. If you think a subject is boring, remember, everything is related to everything else. Look for the connections.

15. Choose what not to store in memory.
• Decide what’s important to remember and what is not. Focus on the key elements of the concept.

16. Combine memory techniques.
• All of these memory techniques work even better in combination with each other.
RECALL IT

17. Remember something else.
• When you are stuck and can’t remember something you know you know,
remember something else that is related to it.
• Information is stored in the same area of the brain as similar information.
Your can unblock your recall by stimulating that area of your memory.
• A brainstorming session is a good memory jogger.

18. Notice when you do remember.
• To develop your memory, notice when you recall information easily and ask yourself what memory techniques you’re using naturally.

19. Use it before you lose it.
• Even information stored in long-term memory becomes difficult to recall
if we don’t use it regularly.
• Read it, write it, speak it, listen to it, apply it—find some way to make contact
with the information regularly.

20. And, remember, you never forgot.
• Adopt the attitude that says: “I never forget anything. I may have difficulty recalling something from my memory, but I never really forget it. All I have to do is find where I stored it.”
• You can say “I don’t recall it right now”—not “I don’t remember.”
