How to Teach Study Skills One of the most important skills that students should master is how to study. A person who knows how to study will not only do well at all phases of his education, but will be able to make his entire life an opportunity for learning. Homeschool Tools contains a complete study kit to use in teaching study skills. The goal is to teach: The discipline of studying Useful methods for efficient studying Where do I start? The first step is developing good study habits. Homeschool Tools contains a Study Inventory to help students determine their best study environment. Most students study best in a quiet room at an uncluttered table or desk . However, some people study better with music or sitting on a couch. A student should identify his best environment for study and develop the habit of setting up his own area before he begins his work. The next goal for the student is to practice studying for longer stretches. Study takes time. Homeschool Tools contains a Student Contract that teaches the student how to set and track goals. The student should learn to set his goals the day an assignment is made so that he can work regularly on the assignment. The Student Contract walks the student through the process of breaking a larger goal into daily goals. For example, if he must learn the content of a book, he divides the required number of pages by the number of days allotted for the assignment. Learning how to set daily goals takes practice. In the beginning the teacher should guide students in this process. The student should consider that he is making a contract with himself. He should do his best to reach each daily goal. The Student Contract also contains a useful list of study methods, which the student can incorporate into his study plan.

Teaching Study Skills A guide for parents from the National Association of School Psychologists Introduction A Positive Experience A high priority Organization ... Resources Overview Many capable children at all grade levels experience frustration and failure in school. It's not because they lack ability, but because they do not have adequate study skills. Good study habits are important for success in school. Knowing how to study effectively fosters feelings of competence, develops positive attitudes, and helps children realize they can control how well they do in school and in life. Good study habits also lay the groundwork for successful work habits as an adult. Teachers and parents must work together to help children learn good study skills. Preferred learning styles vary from child to child. Children need to discover how they learn best, work out a study system that fits their learning style, and use that system regularly. Parents of elementary students usually help their children more than parents of adolescents. However, older students also need parental support and encouragement throughout high school. Four Basic Principles to Enhance Study Skills 1. Make doing homework a positive experience: associate it with love and affection, freedom, fun and self-control.

But before you begin, bear in mind that you will only master these study skills if you adopt a proactive approach. At the beginning of each section there is a problems check list , to help you determine whether you have difficulties with a topic. Following this there are skill-building tips , as you read these note down any that are particularly useful to you. Finally pick out the changes that you think you need to make from the skills check list Don't try to make too many changes at once, perhaps just up to three per study skill at any one time.

STUDY SKILLS FOR HIGH SCHOOL Ian Graham So if education is so important why isn't it a subject at school? In our first school we learned things without having to think about it too much - in a way you were being prepared for work in a senior school. To cut a long story short you were gaining skills that would be useful. In later grades the process continued but became more difficult - you had to start thinking for yourselves more and more. When it comes to studying in High School, you will be expected to think for yourself almost all the time - your teachers will help you all the waay but YOU will have to take control of your own learning. Strangely enough, very few schools teach you HOW to learn! This guide has been designed to do just that. It should help you work out sensible solutions to any problems you may come across as you work towards the qualifications you will need. Remember, everyone is different - no one approach will prove successful for everyone. Each unit of this guide has been tried and tested - use the information to find out what is best for YOU Click on the following links and start your real education now!

Study Skills Problem Solving - A Chemistry Example Problem Skill-building tips Read the entire problem and note everything you are unfamiliar with. There is no point starting to tackle the problem until you are sure what is being asked. Underline anything you are unfamiliar with and look it up (?polymorph). Identify the topic of the problem. In this case, it is stoichiometry. Write down all the information given. For example, sodium chloride + calcium carbonate calcium chloride 88.0 g excess (mpt CaCO Identify the real question. Work out what you are being asked to solve, and write this down. (moles of calcium chloride). It is not always so obvious, but you will soon learn to see through the confusion. Plan your method of attack. Don't jump straight in; sit back and think about how you are going to solve the problem; then write down your strategy (write down balanced equation; grams NaCl moles NaCl moles calcium chloride). Think about the chemical concepts involved. (chemical formulae, stoichiometry, mole, molecular weight). See if you have enough information.

Study Skills/Learning Tactics Seven study skills/learning tactics to apply to learning opportunities Surveying techniques : Surveying is a skill that can be applied to a wide range of learning opportunities. Surveying a block of subject material (an instructors handout, a section of a course syllabus, a chapter in a textbook, a patient's chart) is carried out by skimming the material to be studied. Read major topics and subheading and the first sentence of paragraphs. Look quickly at charts and diagrams and read the captions. Textbooks usually have a summary at the end of each chapter that will provide an overview. Surveying carries out the following important functions: Overcomes student inertia. Surveying is an excellent way to start a study. Provides advance organizers. Advance organizers serve as topics or categories around which facts and details may be organized and subsequently learned. Advance organizers have been shown to be very important in helping students learn, remember, and interrelate material they have studied. Builds a foundation: A preview of the material to be studied and learned forms a broad framework of prior knowledge upon which new knowledge and understanding can be built.

Good study habits are important for success in school, to foster feelings of competence, to develop positive attitudes, and to help children realize they can control how well they do in school and in life. Good study habits lay the groundwork for successful work habits as an adult. For children to learn good study skills, teachers and parents must work together.

Of course, you will complete this WebQuest when you become the teacher and teach!!! How to get started... Become the teacher and write a lesson plan according to your learning strength!!! First read this entire WebQuest. Form a group of three according to your different learning styles. Each member of the group must have a different learning strength. (Do the Assesment link in the next section with the whole class) Do your research using the Multiple Intelligence links to give you background and ideas for the lesson plan.

Teach the Way You LEARN Cr ed its r ... eturn to project Summary This WebQuest was designed for a particular group of students at St. Ignatius College Preparatory. The students who take this study skills class are part of the Academic Support Services Progam. These students are typically 9th graders who are identified as coming from an educational background that puts them at an academic disadvantage compared to their peers. These students generally do not have documentation of learning problems. These students had to go to summer school before their official acceptance to the school. Although this WebQuest was designed for a particular group of students, it can be used by any teacher interested in teaching good study skills to their students. This WebQuest can be used as an introduction to learning about Multiple Intelligences or Study Skills. It can also be used as an activity along the continuum of teaching study skills techniques. What I like about the way the WebQuest is set up is that you could change the lesson plan subject matter so the students can still examine their learning strengths but can incorporate different subject matter. The objectives of this WebQuest are.
