Techniques For Studying With Groups

By Hedrick Lepsch


One of the many resources available to students is their fellow students. Those individuals who create and take full advantage of study groups and group learning activities will be better able to propel their academic careers and find success in learning the material.

Students from all degrees and programs can benefit from group learning. From business administration degree programs to nursing school programs, those students who are willing to collaborate together on their projects and assignments will be far more likely to learn well the knowledge and instruction that they are being taught.

Fifth- Many photographers who are starting out think that they need to get a really nice camera to take amazing pictures but this is not true. It takes a good understanding of picture taking more than anything else. Sixth- Many photographers think they can edit on their camera but you should really get it on your computer where you can get a full screen view of the product that way you can make an educated decision on whether to delete, enhance, or change in anyway.

Tip Three: Always review. It's never too early to start studying for a test. Even if you just casually look over your notes every once in a while, the repetition will help you remember and actually learn! If your instructor offers a study guide or sample questions, take advantage of them. Let them guide your studies, but don't rule out everything else. You never know what kind of information may slip into the test.

Because it is likely that some in the group will have the personality of taking control, the group as a whole should decide how best to lead each session, as having the personality for leadership and being a quality leader are often two very different things. If the group as a whole decides that it is best to have one group member take the lead at each meeting, then so be it, but if the group decides that the responsibility of leading the group during the study sessions should rotate with each session, then a plan will need to be established and communicated.

Tip Five: Be confident. If you followed the first four tips, you will have been well prepared. Trust your gut and try not to over think questions. Don't last minute cram, don't panic, just breathe and charge in with confidence. If a question stumps you, don't let it bother you. It's just one question. You will do fine! If you are getting an online degree or a traditional degree, these tips will help you prepare for any test you face!
