With the semester well underway, you may ask yourself how you can improve your study habits so you can get the most out of your studies. Here are some ideas!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Try the Study habits<\/em> module on UniSkills<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n A fantastic way to get a rundown on forming effective study habits is by taking the Study habits<\/em> module, which can be found online at the Library\u2019s UniSkills<\/a> website. It\u2019s great for learning more about scheduling and managing your time, goal setting and breaking down goals into achievable tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n My favourite part about this module is the \u2018Know Yourself\u2019 section, where you can identify your personal learning style and the environment that you work the best in. I personally work best at home in a quiet environment with a cup of coffee next to me!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Study with other students at a UniPASS session<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you are someone who benefits from studying with others, you may want to try out a UniPASS study session<\/a>. You can supercharge your study with UniPASS, turning that pass into a credit, or distinction into a high distinction!<\/p>\n\n\n\n What is this magical UniPASS, you may ask? UniPASS is a free program of informal weekly study sessions for specific units, led by a senior student who was successful in that unit. It\u2019s a great chance to work through those hard concepts, ask questions or consolidate what you learnt in class in a supportive and fun environment. You can check if UniPASS is available for your units online<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Get a study group together<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n If there is no UniPASS for your units, why not grab some friends and study together? This can be a great way to make study less boring. Teaching each other concepts that you learnt in class is a wonderful way to test your own knowledge of content. If you can confidently explain a concept to someone else, you\u2019re on the right track to having a thorough understanding of that concept!<\/p>\n\n\n\n So why not take the chance to upgrade your study habits? Whether this is your first year of study, or very last, there are always new ways of studying to discover.<\/p>\n\n\n
