With schools and colleges shut down due to the coronavirus lockdown, self-study is the norm now more than ever.
Self-study simply means studying by yourself.
Although it is not an easy task since we all need assistance in some form. That is why LOGISS has set up its online study center to help you achieve your personal studies and all teachers are always on standby to also assist you online.
Not to forget that self-study also requires discipline and organization.
THE FOLLOWING ARE FIVE STEPS TO ACHIEVE A SUCCESSFUL SELF STUDY
Get Study Plan
The first step is to create a study plan. You can set reminders on your phone or use a wall planner. The study plan can be created around the topics that need to be covered and assign time according to your understanding of the topic.
Take Notes
It is important to take notes while you study. Include all details of the source and ensure that you note down the page numbers of each information you select. Do remember that note-taking does not mean that you copy down every word given in the book. Stick to the main points, and summarize what you study in your own words. Make sure that you also note down the meaning of difficult words, and important definitions.
Video Lectures
Video lectures are akin to attending lectures in a classroom albeit from the comfort of your home. You also have the option to choose from multiple topics and don’t have to stick to a lesson plan. There are multiple platforms that let you access video lectures. We will make available video resources to students in their respective online classes.
Mock Test/Online Quiz
Assessing your progress is an important part of studying. While self-studying, students can take mock tests and quizzes available online to evaluate their knowledge in their various subjects/topics.
Relax
And last but not least, relax. Self-study requires that you take well-placed breaks and don’t stress. Taking regular breaks from study is important to re-energize.
