Recognition/Reflection Action
What helps my learning?

Example: “Discussing the topic with others”

How can I utilise this

  • Set up a study group of like-minded peers
  • Engage with the online community
 Keeping organised notes on lectures  – print off slides prior to lecture

– create a system to be followed for all lectures so that it is easy to understand notes. For example, using different codes etc.

 Having appropriate knowledge of subject ares to be discussed in lectures.  – set aside a set time for use of the library

– engage with set reading lists and extra reading of diverse sources.

 Being in ‘the right place’ for successful learning.  – Big one for me. Get in the zone; eating well, sleeping well etc.

 

Recognition/Reflection Action
What hinders my learning?

Example: “I am easily distracted”

How can I address this factor?

  • Study in a place were distractions are minimal
  • Read lecture notes before the lecture and then take notes lectures to keep me focused
 I sometimes concentrate too much on work rather than studies.  – Have set times to deal with work marketing & emails etc.

– Turn off phone during set study periods, so I have shorter but more focussed time.

 I leave everything until the last minute.  – Create visual to do list.

– Complete tasks as soon as possible and prioritise by importance. (UNI FIRST)
