One-Page Study Method Guide

1. Set Clear Goals


- Know what you need to study (topic, subject, or chapter).
- Break big topics into smaller, manageable sections.
- Set a goal for each session (e.g., “Understand rockfalls” or “Finish geometry homework”).

2. Use Active Study Techniques


- Summarize what you read in your own words.
- Make notes or mind maps to simplify concepts.
- Ask yourself questions and try to answer without looking at your notes.
- Teach someone else – if you can explain it, you know it!

3. Use the Pomodoro Technique


- Study for 25 minutes (focus time).
- Take a 5-minute break.
- Repeat 3–4 times, then take a longer break (15–30 minutes).

4. Use Visual Aids


- Draw diagrams, tables, or timelines.
- Use color to highlight key ideas or group information.

5. Practice With Past Papers & Questions


- Test yourself regularly with exercises or past exam questions.
- Mark your work and correct your mistakes.

6. Organize Your Study Space


- Keep your space clean and quiet.
- Remove distractions (phone, TV, unnecessary tabs).
- Have all your materials ready (notes, textbooks, stationery).

7. Revise Regularly
- Don’t cram the night before!
- Review your notes often (daily or weekly).
- Use flashcards for quick revision.

8. Stay Healthy
- Sleep at least 7–8 hours per night.
- Drink water and eat healthy snacks.
- Take short movement or stretching breaks.
9. Track Your Progress
- Tick off completed topics or goals.
- Reflect on what’s still difficult and revisit it.
More Study Techniques to Boost
Learning
Feynman Technique
- Choose a topic.

- Explain it as if you’re teaching a 12-year-old.

- Find gaps in your understanding and go back to study them.

- Simplify further until you can explain it clearly and easily.

SQ3R Method (for Reading Textbooks)


- Survey – Skim the chapter for headings, images, and summary.

- Question – Turn headings into questions.

- Read – Read the section to find answers.

- Recite – Say answers in your own words.

- Review – Go over the key points again after reading.

Spaced Repetition
- Review material at spaced intervals (e.g., 1 day, 3 days, 1 week, 1 month).

- Use flashcards or apps like Anki or Quizlet.

Blurting
- After studying a topic, close the book and write down everything you remember.

- Then go back and fill in the gaps or correct mistakes.

Cornell Note-Taking Method


- Divide your page into three sections: Notes, Cue Column, Summary.

- Take notes during lessons, add questions later, summarize at the end.

Mind Mapping
- Start with a main topic in the center.

- Branch out into subtopics using keywords and images.

- Helps with memory, creativity, and connecting ideas.


Interleaving
- Mix different topics or subjects in one session.

- Example: Study 20 min of Math, then Science, then Geography.

Dual Coding
- Combine words and visuals (like diagrams, charts, drawings).

- Helps your brain process the same info in two ways.

Active Recall
- Close your book and try to recall facts without looking.

- Quiz yourself regularly, even on easy topics.

Study Groups (if focused)


- Discuss topics with classmates.

- Ask each other questions and teach one another.
