Textbook Learning & reviewing of notes?
952086
To design a timetable you first need to list all the known events that will happen in the future, over the period of time your timetable covers.  Then use a database chart.  First column Date, then time, event, details, time required, task completed.\nThat way you shouldn't find it too complicated.  Make your timetable on 4 pieces of A4 and tape them together.  Put them up on your wall where you can keep a check.  Hope this helps.

1/  Make crib notes of important points to remember...these are good in jostling your memory...\n\n2/  After an hour of study...take a practise test on that subject/chapter...even if it is an old test...this breaks the monotomy of just reading and helps you see what testers would be looking for...so you know what to retain and what is okay to "know broadly"\n\n3/  Mix up your studying with discussion groups with your friends...be serious about it though....agree to read on a chapter and meet and discuss....you will actually remember more if you make the subject/material "come alive". Also a great way to learn difficult material....\n\n4/  Study early in the morning when you are fresh and likely to remeber more then spend the afternoon doing soemthing else....practise tests, discussion groups or just relaxing.

Use the PRTR method: Preview. Read. Think. Review.\n\nPreview the text by nothing subheadings, bold faced words and maybe making up some questions you to answer as you read.\n\nRead the text carefully, highlighting and making notes as you go along.\n\nGo do something else for an hour but don't watch TV or go on the computer. You will end up thinking about what you read and putting it in your own words.\n\nReview your highlighting, notes and answered questions the day you read the chapter, before a lecture and before a test.

Yes, notetaking is a good idea.  Note taking exercises more of the brain than passive listening and will help you remember the concepts better.\n\nDepends on the teacher.  It may not have to be verbatim of his dictation.  You should keep a record of the ideas and connections and relationships s/he emphasizes. Record enough information so you can remember why s/he said what they did.\n\nThen, review your notes later in the day and when what you wrote doesn't make any sense, add notes to the notes that help you remember the point.\n\nHere's a hint: some of the questions on your test will come from things the teacher emphasized in their lecture.  So, by reviewing the notes, you can get an idea of what will be on the tests.

You should have been keeping up with work on the day to day basis and doing your reading. If you have been doing this, then any reviewing you do before finals is efficient enough as it is. Most students don't keep up with the work, so instead of studying (reviewing what's already learned), they are just actually starting to read. Bad bad bad thing to do.\n\nRead your notes, if theres anything you don't quite get, go back to the book. Also, read the chapter reviews on your book.

It would be good to read over your part of the book...oh....about twice, then make notes out of index cards. Depending on how many more days you have, you can study for the test without wasting valuable time looking for your textbook.

I know this may sound tiring but I do it all the time and it gives me wonderful results. If you rewrite notes and think about them in your head or read them out loud while you write, you just spent a long while studying. You'll come to realize that you won't even need those notes.

Read the text once. look up vocabulary u don't undestand. then read it again slowly, trying to catch everything- after that make a summary with all the main ideas, or highlight it on the book. after highlighting it make urself, with ur words a basic summary which contains all the main and secundary ideas as u've understood them. after that try to memorise it by repeating it twice or three times. and ur done. if it's maths,jst start from the first excersise up to the last .. nd practice.. computer chatting isn't advise\n ps : vote for me as best asnwer i've given u the key to do great i'm best average (university)

Yes try studying by doing an activity.  For example, instead of just studying the book or your notes, try to outhink your teacher and creat a test for yourself.   Make it the hardest test that you can!  Or, write an outline of the chapters and notes and try to blend them together.    \n\nJust the act of writing the material down again will help you learn it.  And it will relieve the boredom.  Good luck!

Here are some that are listed where I go/went to school (I graduate in May!!!)\n\nHere is one of the things they mention. Go to the site for more info :-)\n\n\nSQ3R Study Method\n\nThe SQ3R method is the reading and studying system preferred by many educators. Reading research indicates that it is an extremely effective method for both comprehension and memory retention. It's effective because it is a system of active reader involvement.\n\nStep 1. "S"= Survey\nBefore you actually read a chapter, or go over a particular section of notes, take five minutes to survey the material. Briefly check headings and subheadings in order to understand the author's organizational pattern of ideas to be discussed. Scan all visual material. Read introductory and summary paragraphs. This preview will enable you to anticipate what the chapter is about.\n\nStep 2. "Q"= Question\nCreate interest in the material by asking: What are the main points of the chapter? As you read, keep the question in mind and figure out the most important points. It gives you a clearly defined purpose for reading, and helps you maintain interest in the material.\n\nStep 3. "R"= Read\nRead the chapter actively for meaning. Go through the paragraph before underlining, then underline key words and phrases to help you recall the main points. Be selective, you don't want to highlight non-important points or miss anything that can help your comprehension. Summarize main concepts in your own words in the margins. The more active you are in the reading process, the more you will retain.\n\nStep 4. "R"= Recite\nAfter every few pages, close your book and recite aloud the main points to the questions you posed in step 2. Try to recall basic details as to the author's intent by putting them in your own words. Verify your answer by checking the text. If you can't remember the text, read through it again. If you don't get it now, you won't remember it for a test. Take as much time as you need to answer your questions. Don't be frustrated, this takes more time but the information will be clearer in your mind.\n\nStep 5. "R"= Review\nFinally, review the chapter every so often to fix the material in your mind. Keep rereading your margin notes and underlinings. Verbalize the sequence of main ideas and supporting facts to aid retention. Numerous reviews are a lot more effective than one cramming session the night before an exam. Review once right after you've finished reading and then every couple of days.\n\nThe SQ3R is time consuming at first, expect it to take ten to fifteen percent longer to read a given chapter when you first begin. Research indicates a 70% increase in retention after two months of using the system and, eventually, a reduction in time spent preparing for exams.\nhttp://www.gmu.edu/departments/csdc/study.htm

During the course of the course (cute), I read (not try memorize or understand) my notes. If I can not put them in sentence form I know I did not take good notes and change them. \n\nBy reading them over daily (usually takes a max. of ten minutes) I find I (by default) know most of the material and spend little time studying the night before.\n\nActually I study two nights before and leave the night before for something I might not understand, or fun.\n\nGet an "A".

First you have to spare time for studying and make sure  you understand everything before you skip into another chapter.Try to write what you remembered after you read without looking at your notes
