  1. Describe your current methods of study. How do you study for each class?\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    My current methods of stud are not very good and could definitely use some improvement. When I have a test or quiz coming up I tend to start by re reading all the notes I took in that class. After I read my notes a few times I usually make flash cards, or find a quizlet that already has all the information I need to know.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Some techniques I use in class include highlighting and underlining information that I know is important and underlining the main points in my notes.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    2. Outside of class I mostly study by making flashcards because it is the easiest for me to retain information that way. I also have my friends or family members quiz me on my flashcards.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
        \n
      1. Identify one class in which you are doing well (not HLTH 101).\u00a0 What study methods work best and why?<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        So far I am doing relatively well in chem lab and chem lecture. For chem lab I just make sure before each lab I review what we will be doing that class so that way I understand what will go on before I go into class. For chem lecture I have been taking really detailed notes and also writing down the math examples from class in order to remember how to do certain conversions, etc.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Identify one class where you are experiencing challenges and address the following questions<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          So far, my challenging class is history. For study strategies I plan on making a small study group to prepare for exams, quizzes, and tests together as a group. I plan on attending any review sessions if those become available. I plan on studying about thirty minutes five days a week so that I don\u2019t have to cram all the information in one long study session. Based on my current understanding I need to spend time really going through the previous discussion board questions and reviewing them to make sure I know all the answers and also to go through key figures and dates during the civil war.<\/span><\/p>\n

          \u00a0As of right now I have not been very systematic about preparing for the exam, and I plan on studying the rest of the week and this weekend to ensure I am ready. Taking advantage of all the resources on campus is something that has not crossed my mind much because I\u2019ve been so busy, and I am definitely struggling to find my motivation to study since history doesn\u2019t really interest me but I need to get through this class to go into learning what I really want to learn about.<\/span><\/p>\n

          \u00a0I do not know if my exam prep will go well because I haven\u2019t really done any yet but I am beginning that very soon.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

          1. Review at least 5 academic tips\/resources listed here: <\/span>https:\/\/www.odu.edu\/success\/academic\/tips<\/span><\/a>What is one new technique you could try in class to help you better understand the material?<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            One tip I need to use is having a positive attitude towards exams and class in general. I usually go into exams and tests with the mindset that I\u2019m going to fail instead of a positive mindset and telling myself I am going to pass. Having a positive attitude towards learning will make it more interesting and it will help me to get all the information I need.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

              \n
            1. What is one new technique you could try outside of class to help you better understand the material?<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              One of the tips I could use outside of class is when I write things down in my planner make a to-do list out of it. I should organize the list in order of importance and assignments that are due sooner and make myself a timeline. I should also set reminders on my phone for when assignments are due in order to assure no deadlines are missed or forgotten about.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
