How to take on college studying
Part 2
Choose where to study
Where you should study depends on two factors: the environment in which you are best able to concentrate and the type of work you are planning to do.
·    The best places to study have good light, a comfortable temperature and enough desk space- usually your dorm room, your apartment or the library.
·     For completing problem sets or brainstorming possible test questions, you may want to study with a group or at least in a setting where fellow students are available for discussion.
·    When you are reading book chapters or working on a research paper, you are probably better off in a less social environment.
Improve your study habits
Here are simple steps you can take to help you get a handle on studying:
·    Have a routine for where and when you study.
·    Choose reasonable and specific goals that you can accomplish for each study session.
·    Do things that are harder or require more intense thought at materials but not absorbing it.
·    Get to know students whom you respect and can study with or contact to ask questions.
·    Keep up with the workload and seek help when you need it.

Develop good study habits
In college, you’ll need to build on the study skills that you learned in high school. The demands of a college class are probably more rigorous than those you are used to.
 Think college as a full-time job, in which you spend 40 hours a week on class, labs, study groups and doing homework.
Being organized and using your time well are essential. Learn more about time management, and use the guidelines below to develop your study skills.
Decide when to study
Work out about how many hours you need to study every day. Then make schedule
·    Figure out what blocks of time you have available throughout the day, in the evenings and on weekends.
·    Consider what time of the day you are most alert- there are morning people and night owls- and try to schedule your studying accordingly.
·     Think about whether you do better studying for a few hours at a time or sitting down for marathon session

10 time management tips for students Tips 5-10


10 time management tips for students
Tips 5-10
Tips 5. Review notes every day.
Reviewing helps you reinforce what you’ve learned, so you need less time to study before a test. You’ll also be ready if you get called on in class or have to take a pop quiz.
Tip 6. Get a good night’s sleep.
Your brain needs rest to perform at its peak. Lack of sleep makes the day seem longer and your tasks seem more difficult.
Tip 7 communicates your schedule to others.
If phones calls or text messages are proving to be a distraction, tell your friends that you are only available at certain times day and not to expect a response at other times.
Tips 8. Become a taskmaster.
Give yourself a time budget and plan your activities accordingly. Figure out how much free time you have each week before you add any commitments.
Tip 9. Don’t waste time agonizing.
Instead of agonizing and procrastinating, just do it. Wasting an entire evening worrying about something that you‘re supposed to be doing is not productive, and can increase your stress.
Tip 10. Determine your priorities.
You can’t do everything at once. Establish the importance of each item. They set realistic goals that are attainable.

7 Habits OF Highly Successful Teens
Habit 2: Began With the End in Mind
If teens aren’t clear about where they want to end up in life, about their values, goals, and what they stand for, they will wander, waste time, and be tossed to and fro by the opinions of others. Help your teen create a personal mission statement which will act as a road map and direct and guide his decision- making process.
“Keep your eyes on the prize.” Determine your desired prize and don’t quit until you have realized the achievement of your prize. Then another prize, another goal or desire that you would really like to achieve. Began with the achievement of your prize in mind. Visualize and then realize. Start by having a target in mind; know where you are going.
One prize or goal you definitely need to establish for yourself is the prize of an honorable graduation from high school- that you will receive your diploma honestly and with integrity- that you earned it with perfect honesty.

Habit 1
Habit 1: be protective.
Being proactive is the key to unlocking the other habits. Help your teen take control and responsibility for her life. Proactive people understand that they are responsible for their own happiness or unhappiness. They don’t blame others for their own actions or feelings. Proactive people realize that the ball is their court, that they are the captain of their own ship; that they are in control, control of their decisions, thoughts, choices, decisions, goals, actions, and priorities. Proactive people are self-starters; they don’t wait to be told what to do, they press forward with enthusiasm toward the achievement of their assignment, their duties, their responsibilities, their obligations. Choosing to do what is right is a proactive decision. Obey the rules. Obey the law. Obey the coach. Obey the school polices. Obey your parents. Obey with exactness, and great things will come to you. Be proactive and take the initiative.

Work Together. There are a number of ways that you can ensure you get the most out of your educational experience. First, participate fully. Engage regularly in the discussions and be willing to share you personal, professional and educational experiences. You can get to know your classmates through the dialogue that is created in a course environment-sometimes even better than in a face-to-face class. And the same goes for your instructor. Be sure to contact your professor-especially if you are having problems. He/she is still your instructor and will be there to guide and assist you as needed.

A successful student …
… Takes responsibility for his her own learning
Online learning can be a powerful, stimulating engaging experience for the student who can work and think independently. However, since most-if not all- of the learning takes place on your own time, you will not have the kind of direct supervision you would in a classroom. Online learning therefore requires a significant commitment from you. All education comes down to what you’re willing to invest in the experience-this is particularly true in the online environment. Commitment, self-discipline and self-motivation are all key qualities to ensuring success in an online course!
… Is comfortable and confident with written communication
Reading and writing are the basis of most online courses, so it’s critical that you feel comfortable with this form of communication. While some courses contain modules that include videos or other activities, all of them require significant amounts of reading. And nearly all of your communication with your classmates and your instructor will be in writing. If these are weak areas for you, you will want to address those issues prior to enrolling or while enrolled in an online course. The PSU Writing Center is available to assist you.

10. successful students are good times managers. Successful students do not procrastinate. They have learned that time control is life control and have consciously chosen to be in control of their life.
An element truth: you will either control time or be controlled by it! It’s your choice: you can lead or be led, established control or relinquished control, steer your own course or follow others failure to take control of their own time is probably the no. 1 study skill problem for college students. It intimately causes many students to become non- students! Procrastinate are good excuse-makers. Don’t make academics harder on yourself than it has to be. Stop procrastinating. And don’t wait until tomorrow to do it.
