- Study with reasonable intensity.
- Regularly evaluate your system and make targeted changes based on your results.
- Benefits of the ultimate learning system include:
- Increased motivation
- Decreased emotional investment (more process-oriented)
- Improvement over time (anti-burnout)
- Greater overall success, leading to faster growth
Levels of Processing
- Learning system elements include, studying as a process, time spent studying, results and performance, confidence, meta-cognition and self-awareness, reflective ability, trial and error and experimentation, learning science theory and old and new habits.
- The system also includes note-taking techniques, revision/retrieval strategies, cognitive load and the overall learning system.
- There are multiple levels of processing:
- Level 1: Memorize everything
- Level 2: Compare and group
- Level 3: Rate out of 10
- Level 4: Connect and construct a schema
- Level 5: Rate your schema
