3 Benefits Of Mixing Up Your Study Routines

Published by mrtestprep at

Too often students believe there is only one way to study. Many students define studying as hiding in a quiet space and reviewing notes or textbooks. When you find you are consistently having trouble performing well on exams or coursework, you may want to consider changing your study routines. Here are 3 ways mixing up your study routines can maximize learning.

 

1. Reduce Interference

 

Memory Improvement Tips describes interference as learning similar subject material that can become easily confused. For example, while learning dates for a history class and important dates for a government class the two different sets of information can easily become confused with one another. To avoid this confusion Memory Improvement Tips suggests studying similar subjects in different rooms. Work on memorizing your history material at the library and go to a coffee shop to study government. Changing up your study spaces can help you separate the similar facts you are learning in your mind. 

2. Feed Creativity

 

Creativity rarely happens while staring at a computer screen. If you become stuck while working on a paper or project that requires original material, change your routine. Go for a walk, sit in a park, hang out in a coffee shop or try a different library. Stay prepared to capture your thoughts by carrying a pencil and notebook with you everywhere you go. Changing your routine will get your creativity flowing.

3. Boost Your Memory

 

Reading over your notes will rarely help cement important content in your brain. Instead, rewrite your notes in a different way. Draw pictures, make a mind map, outline important concepts. Try to write your notes in a way that requires you to think about how concepts connect. Work to synthesize the material rather than just read it or copy it. These methods will help you really learn the material. Changing how you work with your notes will optimize your study time.

If you are stuck in a rut when it comes to studying, change up your routine. Doing things differently can improve your memory and inspire creativity, ultimately making your study time more productive. Don’t be afraid to try something new when it comes to studying.
