With many students today participating in extracurricular
activities, jobs, clubs, and responsibilities at home, it is common
to find an area that is lacking studying. Teachers have identified
that poor study skills are often to blame. On the other hand,
students have found that many of the textbooks and worksheets
forced upon them are either boring or difficult to understand.
Whether it is bad habits or complicated materials that prevent you
from studying well, 101 Ways to Make Studying Easier and Faster for
High School Students can help you improve the effectiveness of your
studying. After all, effectiveness is not measured by the length of
time spent studying, but by the level of comprehension. In this new
book, you will learn how to make a study schedule, how to design an
effective study space, how to read for comprehension, how to get
organized, how to find your learning style, how to listen better in
class, how to use reference sources, how to boost your
concentration, and how to stay motivated. You will learn effective
note taking strategies, where to study, when to study, time
management skills, strategies for reading novels and text books,
memorization techniques, and organizational skills. Additionally,
you will find out how to stay awake while studying, how to change
your current habits, and how to make studying more enjoyable. We
will provide you with various studying methods, including
flashcards, quizzes, summarizing, outlining, answering study guide
questions, and the proven SQ3R method, as well as exercises to help
improve your skills. Furthermore, 101 Ways to Make Studying Easier
and Faster for High School Students is full of tips from students
just like you, as well as teachers. No two people learn the same
way, and no one study method will work for everyone. While this
book introduces you to different study methods, the aim is to
improve your learning, your understanding, and, ultimately, your
grades.
