Study tips

It is important to form good study habits early on, in order to study effectively down the track. First you need to take responsibility for your own study, making it your priority rather than something you just do for your teachers or parents. Independent learning is about setting your own goals and being motivated to learn for your own sake. Find what method of study suits you best- do you learn visually, aurally, through group work, via tactile means? Discover when you are most alert and attentive, whether it be morning, afternoon or night, and study then. Study actively, rather than passively. Participate in class discussions rather than just listening; summarise readings and lessons with diagrams and bullet points, rather than just re-reading them.

Another important technique is to have a study schedule to avoid procrastination or wasted time through indecision. You should also develop critical thinking skills- ask yourself and others questions about the material, approach it from different perspectives, read what others have to say on the topic, try to connect it with things you already know. One study method is called the SQ3R method- Survey, Question, Read, Recite and Review. Take notes, highlight, underline, summarise and review. Regular revision will always produce better results than last minute study.

Student supplies

In order to get the most out of your study and learning time, it is important to have the right equipment, supplies and environment for studying in. First of all, create an environment where you will be able to study effectively. Choose a space where it is quiet, with good lighting and where you will not be distracted easily. Distractions to avoid include the television, CD player, phone, and electronic gaming! Get furniture that is ergonomic and comfortable for studying at for long periods of time. Not only will an uncomfortable chair or a desk at the wrong height be irritating, but can also cause serious health problems. Equip your study space with the things you need readily at hand, including wall calendars, diary, textbooks, stationery, exercise books, pencil case, stapler, hole punch, and a computer. Make sure your study notes are carefully stored so you can easily find them, such as in a filing cabinet or storage cabinet.
