After reading the title , you might think what’s this now? But , do you know not everyone has same ability to process information. As everyone has their own dominant sense which helps them to remember and retreive the information read before. Sharing my personal experience , I discovered that when I want to remember an information I use ‘keywords’ to remember the information . But not everyone can do this .
So now let me introduce you to some of the study patterns that you can try and then discover which one is best for you !
Study patterns :
• Keywords
Using the main words from the sentences to remember the information .
For example ,
What is photosynthesis?
In paragraph form :
the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize nutrients from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen as a by-product.
In Keyword form :
process- green plants - other organisms - use sunlight- nutrients- carbon dioxide & water -
involves- green pigment chlorophyll- generates oxygen - by product .
•Auditory
Read and record the information in mobile in your voice and listen to it again and again . This study pattern can be used if you think you understand information better by hearing , then you can go for it .
•AudioVisual
When you learn or remember the information by watching videos of the subject on YouTube or online , or by CD which is now available and provided at the back of the book for better understanding.
Nowadays the trend is using mobile phone and laptop. So the one of the good way is you can take adavantage of the technologies available.
• Penning it down
Some people think they can remember information by writing what the understood by reading the information. They can process information only if they write it.
• Using creativity
Drawing the web diagrams , tree diagrams , tables and using colourful pens to remember the information.
• Speak it out
People also prefer to read the information loud and remember it. They want themselves alone in the room and read it loud .
[Tips :
•You can use combinations of these patterns to make it work for you because all of us are different right .
•Taking breaks after every 20 minutes. (*extra)]
Don’t study by uttering negative statement ‘I have to study’ ; but Study with the positive statement ‘I want to learn’ and you will do it .
