1.Learnthesameinformationinavarietyofways.

Theresearch(Willis,J.2008)showsthatdifferentmediastimulatedifferentpartsofthebrain.Themore
areasofthebrainthatareactivated,themorelikelyitisthatyoullunderstandandretaintheinformation.
[1]

Sotolearnaspecifictopic,youcoulddothefollowing:

Readtheclassnotes

Teachsomeonewhatyouvelearned
Dopracticeproblemsfromavarietyofsources

Ofcourse,youwontbeabletodoallofthesethingsinonesitting.Buteachtimeyoureviewthetopic,
useadifferentresourceormethodyoulllearnfasterthisway.

2.Studymultiplesubjectseachday,ratherthanfocusingonjustoneortwosubjects.

Itsmoreeffectivetostudymultiplesubjectseachday,thantodeepdiveintooneortwosubjects
(Rohrer,D.2012).[2]

Forexample,ifyourepreparingforexamsinmath,history,physics,andchemistry,itsbettertostudya
bitofeachsubjecteveryday.Thisapproachwillhelpyoutolearnfasterthanbyfocusingonjustmathon

timetoconsolidateyourlearning.

3.Reviewtheinformationperiodically,insteadofcramming.

Periodicreviewisessentialifyouwanttomoveinformationfromyourshorttermmemorytoyourlong
termmemory.Thiswillhelpyougetbetterexamgrades.

Astheresearch(Cepeda,N.2008)shows,periodicreviewbeatscramminghandsdown.[3]

Theoptimalreviewintervalvaries,dependingonhowlongyouwanttoretaintheinformation.But
experiencebothmyownandthroughworkingwithstudentstellsmethatthefollowingreview
intervalsworkwell(Iexplaintheentireperiodicreviewsysteminthisarticle):

4.Sitatthefrontoftheclass.

Ifyougettochoosewhereyousitduringclass,grabaseatatthefront.Studiesshowthatstudentswhosit

dependingonwheretheysatinclass,areasfollows(Giles,1982):

5.Dontmultitask.

Thedataisconclusive:Multitaskingmakesyoulessproductive,moredistracted,anddumber.[5][6][7]The
studiesevenshowthatpeoplewhoclaimtobegoodatmultitaskingarentactuallybetteratitthanthe
averageperson.

6.Simplify,summarize,andcompresstheinformation.

Usemnemonicdeviceslikeacronyms,astheseareproventoincreaselearningefficiency.[8]

Example#1

Ifyouwanttomemorizetheelectromagneticspectruminorderofincreasingfrequency,youcoulduse
thisacronym/sentence:

RagingMartiansInvadedVenusUsingXrayGuns

(Inorderofincreasingfrequency,theelectromagneticspectrumis:Radio,Microwave,Infrared,Visible,
Ultraviolet,Xrays,Gammarays.)

Example#2

Question:Stalactitesandstalagmiteswhichonesgrowfromthetopofthecaveandwhichonesgrow
fromtheground?

Answer:Stalactitesgrowfromthetop,whilestalagmitesgrowfromtheground.

Studysmartbyusingmnemonicdeviceswheneverpossible.Inaddition,youcouldsummarizethe
informationintoacomparisontable,diagram,ormindmap.[9]Thesetoolswillhelpyoulearnthe
informationmuchfaster.

7.Takenotesbyhand,insteadofusingyourlaptop.

http://www.danielwong.com/2015/08/17/studysmart/ 4/20
6/18/2016 HowtoStudySmart:20ScientificWaystoLearnFasterDanielWong

Scientistsrecommendthis,andnotjustbecauseyouremorelikelytogiveintoonlinedistractionswhen

usingyourlaptop.Evenwhenlaptopsareusedonlyfornotetaking,learningislesseffective(Mueller,P.
2013).[10]

Why?

Becausestudentswhotakenotesbyhandtendtoprocessandreframetheinformation.Incontrast,laptop
notetakerstendtowritedownwhattheteachersayswordforword,withoutfirstprocessingthe
information.

Assuch,studentswhotakenotesbyhandperformbetterintestsandexams.

8.Writedownyourworries.

9.Testyourselffrequently.

Decadesofresearchhasshownthatselftestingiscrucialifyouwanttoimproveyouracademic
performance.[13]

Inoneexperiment,UniversityofLouisvillepsychologistKeithLyletaughtthesamestatisticscourseto
twogroupsofundergraduates.

Forthefirstgroup,Lyleaskedthestudentstocompleteafourtosixquestionquizattheendofeach
lecture.Thequizwasbasedonmaterialhedjustcovered.

10.Connectwhatyourelearningwithsomethingyoualreadyknow.

Intheirbook,MakeItStick:TheScienceofSuccessfulLearning,scientistsHenryRoedigerIIIandMark
A.McDanielexplainthatthemorestronglyyourelatenewconceptstoconceptsyoualreadyunderstand,
thefasteryoulllearnthenewinformation.[14]

whicharetheenemies.

Ittakestimeandefforttothinkabouthowtoconnectnewinformationtowhatyoualreadyknow,butthe
investmentisworthit.

11.Readkeyinformationoutloud.

Studieshavebeenconducted,whichdemonstratethatreadinginformationoutloudhelpsstudentsto
learnfasterthanbyreadingsilently(MacLeodCM,2010&OzubkoJD,2010).[15][16]

Whatsthereasonforthis?

Whenyoureadinformationoutloud,youbothseeandhearit.Ontheotherhand,whenyouread
informationsilently,youonlyseeit.

Itisntpracticaltoreadeverysinglewordofeverysinglesetofnotesoutloud.Thatwouldtakewaytoo
muchtime.
http://www.danielwong.com/2015/08/17/studysmart/ 6/20
6/18/2016 HowtoStudySmart:20ScientificWaystoLearnFasterDanielWong

SoherestheprocessIrecommend:
Step1:Asyoureadyournotes,underlinethekeyconcepts/equations.Dontstoptomemorizethesekey
concepts/equationsunderlinethemandmoveon.

Step2:AfteryouvecompletedStep1fortheentiresetofnotes,gobacktotheunderlinedpartsandread
eachkeyconcept/equationoutloudasmanytimesasyoudeemnecessary.Readeachconcept/equation
slowly.

Step3:Afteryouvedonethisforeachoftheunderlinedkeyconcepts/equations,takeathreeminute

Step4:Whenyourthreeminutebreakisover,gotoeachunderlinedconcept/equationoneatatime,and
coverit(eitherwithyourhandorapieceofpaper).Testyourselftoseeifyouveactuallymemorizedit.

Step5:Fortheconcepts/equationsthatyouhaventsuccessfullymemorized,repeatSteps2,3,and4.

12.Takeregularstudybreaks.

Takingregularstudybreaksenhancesoverallproductivityandimprovesfocus(Ariga&Lleras,2011).

13.Rewardyourselfattheendofeachstudysession.

Rewardyourselfattheendofeverysessionyoullstudysmarterandlearnfaster.

14.Focusontheprocess,nottheoutcome.

Successfulstudentsconcentrateonlearningtheinformation,notontryingtogetacertaingrade.

StanfordpsychologistCarolDwecksresearchshowsthatthesestudents[19]

Whatsthedifferencebetweenthesetwotypesofgoals?

Performancegoals(e.g.getting90%onthenextmathtest,gettingintoatoprankedschool)areabout
lookingintelligentandprovingyourselftoothers.

Incontrast,learninggoals(e.g.doingthreealgebraproblemseveryotherday,learningfivenewFrench
