STUDYING: It's what being a student is all about
Whatever course you take, there is always going to be study involved. This includes learning new words and concepts and grasping a deeper understanding of underlying complexities and diverse points of view. The expectations around studying is that you read the textbook chapter that has been assigned, prior to doing the assignment(s) for the week. All exams are written to align with the textbook as are the study guides.
As a college student, you will most likely never have a class that has any less than two exams and some will have many more. (As instructors, we are required to have a certain number of graded items). The most effective way to prepare for exams is by reading the assigned textbook chapters with the aid of the study guide that has been tailored to your course's exams. If you scroll down on this page, you will find them.
Here are a few recommendations that have been proven to increase content comprehension and retention:
(1) Use the study guide when reading the textbook. This will help you hone in on exam content.
(2) Highlight/markup the study guide as you come across a term/concept in your reading.
(3) Create flashcards that will help you commit some of these terms/concepts to memory.
(4) Read/view/listen to your classmates' discussion posts as they are invaluable in presenting ideas in new ways that can help you understand various topics.
(5) Review the lecture slides and lookout for key concepts that will be on the exams.
