Why Study - Quia



Why Study? Short Term Plan to get the Long Term Benefits

On a daily basis you need “TAPE” to make your plan stick

Time

And a

Place to

Execute your plan

1. T: Write down your homework in your agenda book daily and schedule a Time

A: And a Place to complete the homework.

-Look beyond the current day/week when planning and be sure to prioritize!

-The Time should include your extended study-40 minutes to get things done!

2. P: The Place that you choose should be a quiet place away from any distractions (that means phone, TV, iPods, Computers-you know, “my space” kind of stuff)

3. E: To Execute the plan you have to ACTIVELY study: Remember, your brain is like a muscle-for it to get stronger, you have to get it moving!

Active vs Inactive studying

Inactive studying includes just reading a vocabulary list or even a chapter in a book! This type of studying is like trying to read a page from a book posted on a street sign going 65 miles an hour. All you saw was a bunch of words: none of the information went into long term memory!

Actively studying: It is like dipping a paper towel in a bucket of water…the more you dip it, the more likely the paper towel will stick when you throw it against the wall!
