SELF-TESTING

SELF-TESTING:

You seek to understand the information you have learned. You actively monitor your grasp of your learning and activate ways to learn and study key concepts.

THIS SKILL IS GOOD TO PRIORITIZE IF…

You find it hard to remember what you studied.

You rarely review the material you have studied except just before tests.

When you think about tests you get super stressed so you avoid it.

You only think of tests when it comes to formal exams.

STEP 1: WATCH THIS!

STEP 2: TRY THIS!

After Class

  • After class or reading a book write down everything you can remember about what was discussed.

Teach a friend

  • Teach a friend something you want to understand.

Create Your Own Test

  • Create your own test, write down questions on a particular topic and on a separate page write your answers to those questions. Review these in a varied order, focusing on the questions you struggle with the most.

STEP 3: MAKE THIS A HABIT – SOME IDEAS TO GET YOU STARTED

Get in the habit of reviewing your class notes weekly.

Start reviewing for an exam 2 weeks prior  – minimum 6, 2 hour sessions.

Make a list of all the topics you will be tested on. Divide them
 across 5 study sessions, with the 6th session reviewing everything.
