Just Say No to Highlighting

If highlighting is ineffective, what are useful study strategies? Distributed practice was found extremely effective by researchers but it’s a technique that few students employ. Distributed practice involves spreading study sessions out to occur in several smaller chunks of time rather than longer cram sessions. Information is retained longer and a deeper level of learning complex material can be accomplished. Research also supports the use of practice tests to learn material.

Coping with Student Stress

Students have a lot to juggle. At no other time in life is a person expected to complete full days of study, as well as up to 30 hours of work every week, and maintain household and familial/social relationships. It is an extraordinary expectation!
