Study Notes
Effective Study Habits
- Improving Memory Retention: • Repetition is key: repeated exposure to information enhances retention and recall • Spaced repetition: review material at increasingly longer intervals to solidify it in long-term memory • Active recall: actively recalling information from memory strengthens retention and understanding
Minimizing Distractions
- Impact on Study Effectiveness: • Distractions decrease productivity: frequent interruptions lead to decreased focus and understanding • Identify and eliminate distractions: turn off notifications, find a quiet study space, and avoid multitasking • Use the Pomodoro Technique: work in focused 25-minute increments, followed by a 5-minute break
Consistency in Study Schedule

The Power of Breaks
