Method 1: Absorbing Knowledge Efficiently

7 quick tips to improve knowledge management - Saffron Interactive

1. Pay Attention in Your Classes and Focus

It’s important to figure out how long you can keep your full attention before you start getting tired and less efficient. Make sure to plan so that there are enough shorter study times during the week to have enough academic time-on-task earning works best with spaced practice instead of cramming, which also is a more effective approach to paying attention.

2. Take good notes

Note-taking is a skill that can help you do well on all your schoolwork — everything from taking tests to researching a paper. Here are some tips on how to take good notes.

  • Write down key facts
  • Don't overdo it
  • Ask the teacher to repeat
  • Compare notes with readings say
  • Copy if you need to.
  • Organize 

Good note-taking takes time. But the time you spend writing and reviewing notes pays off. Taking time to recopy your notes each evening saves time later when it comes to studying for the actual test.

Note-taking gives your mind a chance to absorb the material it needs to learn. Not only can this help you to do better on a test, but it's also a great confidence booster when you're studying and find yourself saying, "Hey, I remember that!"

3. Do your homework

Even though your parents probably complain about how hard it was in their day, students nowadays have more homework than ever before, even when just starting their first year at middle school. That homework doesn't need to be a struggle now. Learning to plan out an efficient schedule for completing your homework, working on it effectively, and knowing when to get help with difficult assignments can help take the stress out of studying. Don't put it off any longer. 

4. Use mnemonics and other tricks 

Why Mnemonic Memory Techniques Can Change Your Life - Basmo

Everyone wants to improve their memory capacity and duration. Being able to hold onto information for a long period comes in handy quite often! There are certainly ways to improve your overall ability to remember information, like getting more sleep or taking B-12 vitamins and mnemonics to chunking and more!

Mnemonics are memory tricks that can help you remember long strings of information, often in a particular order. You have been using mnemonic devices since…well before you can remember!

The process of “chunking” information is explained in the name. If you are given multiple pieces of information to memorize, chunk them into groups. The groups could be based on the position in which you learn the information, similarities between the pieces of information that you need to memorize, or anything that helps you remember the information.

Want to be the next Class Topper? It’s going to take a lot of work. But mnemonics, chunking, acrostics, acronyms, and other memory tricks can help you get there!

5. Do practice tests

33 Free GRE Practice Tests That You Should Definitely Take! - CrunchPrep GRE

As a student, you’ve probably been taught not to walk into an exam room without prior preparation. From flashcards to course videos, an array of study tools are available to you that may seem more appealing than buckling down and taking a practice test. While those options may help to deepen your understanding of the material, your test preparation will be left incomplete if you make the mistake of skipping the practice tests.

So to recap the multi-step approach:

  • Take the first practice test to establish a starting point
  • Use the second practice test as a question bank for content studying
  • Measure your improvements with the third practice test

“If it’s difficult to take a full practice test on day one then start with just one section. Then the next time you’re ready to study, do two sections and so on.” 

This handout offers several tips on effective studying. Implementing these tips into your regular study routine will help you to efficiently and effectively learn the course material. Experiment with them and find some that work for you.
