The Study Cycle, adapted from Dr. Frank L. Christ’s Preview-Learn-Review-Study system (1997)
- Preview information before going to class
- Attend and actively participate in every class session
- Review material that was covered in class as soon after class as possible
- Implement Intense Study Sessions of approximately one hour that involve:< >Taking 1 - 3 minutes to set a goal for the study session. Studying with focus and action for 30 – 50 minutes by interacting with the material, developing concept maps, re-reading, summarizing, etc.Taking a break for 10 minutes
- Reviewing what was studied before taking the break
- Assess learning by reflecting on whether the current study methods are effective or if they need to be tweaked.
