Recite

At the end of each section, look up from the text and in your own words recite an answer to your question from that section. Then transcribe your answer. Be sure to provide examples that support your answer.

Now repeat the question. Read and recite steps for each section of the chapter. First select a question that you would like to infer upon on the next section. Then read the section and formulate an answer. Finally recite the answer in your own understanding and transcribe it. The written questions and answers will help you study in the future.

Review

After completing the chapter, review your notes. Identify the main points by examining the most exploited idea in each section. Recite, or transcribe, a brief summary of the assignment.

Review your notes every week to aid in the memorization of the material. When it’s time to prepare for your tests, you’ll find you’ve created an invaluable study guide.

Keep things in Perspective

Know how much weight each assignment or test carries, and use your time accordingly. Don’t waste time, but be wise and smart. Doing the most important things first is being wise and smart.

Get More Involved

Keep your mind from wandering by taking notes, underlining sections, and discussing topics with others or relating your homework to something you’re studying in another class. Learn actively and not passively. Be anxiously engaged in your studies and you will have a great experience. Demonstrate a good attitude toward home assignments, and you will begin to love doing it.

Organize the Information

People process information in different ways. Some people like to draw pictures or charts to digest information, others prefer to read out aloud or make detailed outlines. Try to find the methods that work best for you. Ask your teacher for recommendations if you’re having trouble.
