My reading experience

                                According to our book “Study Power” there are 2 types of reading:

                             Reading 4 pleasure                                                    Study reading

What about me I really like to read different types of books. It can be science-fiction, romantic books and the variety of genres. But if I need to read study books (as chemistry, math, etc) I always try to catch the meaning by reading the main parts of articles. Often it is not the best way of learning new, the hard truth is that unless you know the important definitions and the specific details cold, you will not be able to do well on most multiple- choice and short- answer tests.

                                                          So according to our book we should:

                           Preview (5 min) Read title, subtitle, and look at pictures, read the summary.

                                                    Skimming (5-10 min) First, first, last

                               Active reading ( 20-30 min) Chunk into small parts, take notes.

                                                       Summarizing in 7-9 sentences

My note –taking experience

During the lessons we should take notes, but not detailed (except some special information) we should notice the main idea of topic. But why we need it? We have books, teachers, why we need to take notes? If you have notes they will be a proof that you have been on a lecture that you’ve been involved in a topic.
What above me, I always try to notice the main idea of a topic, because it is very helpful method of learning new information.

Tape recording the lecture

Tape recording let you relax and really concentrate on lecture without being afraid that you will miss something. But despite it advantages, taping does present some difficulties. For example after taping you need to review all information in order to understand, and it will take more time.

Some student can TOO relax while taping, because they could think that there is no need to concentrate attention on information, cos they have it in taping version.

In my opinion taping lectures is very useful, but it Not an excuse to stop listening and participate in lectures.
                         

Time management problems

Managing your time is the most effective way to control and manage your life. To make your life easily you should schedule your time. For this you need to develop a time line. If you have long assignments- divide them into parts, according to the steps of the academic process:

1)Selecting a topic     
2)Gathering   information 
3) Organizing  the inf-tion 
4) Developing  an outline 
5) Preparing    the final draft or presentation 
6)Editing or    correcting
7) Preparing the final report

                         

   And then you could easily follow your time-line without any worries, because you know how much time you can afford to spend for each step.

Another way to manage your time is to be scheduled every day. Record your appointments or commitments you have for each day. Every Saturday, complete daily calendars for each day of the upcoming week.

You also can use your calendar as a checklist. At the end of each day (or every Saturday) check to see if all tasks have been completed.  If not, attempt to complete them.
