i’m back after six months with a pic dump of my last two weeks!

it’s currently week six of this semester and i’ve yet again accumulated substantial backlog, but this time i’m doing a lot more of political theory i’m literally loving the concepts! i’m struggling a little with linguistics, but the computational module i’m taking isn’t as bad as i expected, and despite exceeding the recommended workload it hasn’t been that overwhelming! (i’ve managed to make time for my hobbies, and even picked up a new hobby: crochet!)

got a lot done in my political science and indigenous studies classes today, I still can’t wait until the end of next week when I’ll finally get a break to catch up during reading week though!

HOW TO LEARN

This is the most basic thing that a lot of people fail to learn. Without learning how to teach yourself, your study time will be inefficient and unproductive. This will improves the speed and quality of your learning.

First identity whether you are a...

Social (interpersonal): You prefer to learn in groups or with other people.

OR

Solitary (intrapersonal): You prefer to work alone and use self-study.

Then try to identify how you already learn and where you can improve... If anything sparks your interest give it a go!

Visual (spatial):You prefer using pictures, images, and spatial understanding.

Use charts, graphs, maps, diagrams, timelines and infographics

Replace words with colors and images

Stay away from blocks of text, focusing on one idea per slide

Highlight important points in color

Try use a colour scheme for each subject/chapter. During your exams think back to that colour

Aural (auditory-musical): You prefer using sound and music.

Hold discussions and debates with class mates

Speak to yourself in the mirror about what you learnt

Incorporate music into your work. (associating songs with your content)

Create jingles or rhymes to help teach information

Verbal (linguistic): You prefer using words, both in speech and writing.

summarizing your notes

List out keywords on a separate paper

Use acronym mnemonics as teaching devices

find an audience/partner to teach

relate to your own real life experiences

Physical (kinesthetic): You prefer using your body, hands and sense of touch.

Try to find practicals online

Purchase a whiteboard and pretend you are a teacher. Draw diagrams and defenitions.

ask or find lots of worksheets online! do quizzes, fill in the gaps or play snap with yourself (subject content related)

Logical (mathematical): You prefer using logic, reasoning and systems.

put the key concepts or aim of each chapters ontop of the page

Connect the dots of the subject your learning on a mind map, (connect how pieces of your information relate to each other)

Provide specific goals/questions for yourself to answer by the end of the day

Relate to your real life experiences.

Naturalistic Learning: Naturalistic learning focuses on the need to be outside in nature to guide the learning process.

Create a loads of questions, go to a specific location and practice that subject or chapter. During your exams, try think back to that location.

Find outdoor places to revise or learn

Explain to yourself how you can observe your topic in the real world.

If you identify yourself, reblog and suggest other ways to learn to help others! This could help one of your followers!
