Ways to Make Studying More Fun
The "S" word draws various responses from teenagers. Some students are eager to dive in and tackle the books. Regardless of your attitude to studying, one thing is for sure — it has to be done. So why not look at how you can make the process more enjoyable?
·Try hands-on learning. Consider going on a field trip to experience the topic first-hand. For example, if you're studying marine biology, you can take a trip to the aquarium (水族馆). If it's math you're trying to make sense of, talk with a structural engineer about how they figure out the load of a structure.
· Getting together with a friend or a group of classmates can help you learn new study techniques while still getting a few laughs. Try having a debate about a topic you're trying to learn. With a larger group, you can test each other's knowledge by making quizzes and creating true or false mini-tests.
·Break it up. Plan scheduled study breaks every hour and take part in an activity you enjoy. Before you take a break, write down what you have learned during your study time and add to this list each time you take a break.
·Leave the house. Study at your favorite coffee shop or bookstore. If the weather is nice, head to a park or the beach. If you're a mover, hit the pavement for a run and listen to a podcast (播客) that covers the topic you're studying, or grab a friend and quiz each other while you run. .
A. Assess study skills.
B. Study with a partner.
C. Others have perfected the art of avoidance.
D. Go for a quick walk, talk with a friend or eat a snack.
E. Some of your best thoughts come when you're moving your body.
F. You can spend several hours studying and then review your progress.
G. History students can go and check out one of the places mentioned in the book.
