This is the most effective way to learn

Chapter 5 A good plan is half the battle—top students are not afraid to spend time planning (2)
In order to improve the utilization rate of regular time, top students arrange subjects that focus on memory, such as foreign languages, in the morning or evening, or at the beginning and end of a day's study.When you are in a happier mood and more focused, arrange some subjects that are boring or that you don't like.For sporadic and difficult to concentrate time, you can arrange to do exercises or study the subjects you are most interested in.Alternate learning activities and appropriate cultural and sports activities, alternate learning of arts and sciences, similar learning content should not be arranged together, and so on.Due to different learning arrangements, different learning effects will be achieved within the same learning time.

A lot of free study time is saved, what are the top students like?

Generally, they will do two things: first make up lessons, and second improve.

Supplementing lessons refers to making up for the lack of one's own learning; improving refers to in-depth study to give full play to one's own learning advantages or specialties.Whether it is making up lessons or improving, it must always be carried out around a special topic.For example, concentrate one month or one week of free study time on one topic, and after solving one topic, concentrate on the second topic and the third topic for a period of time, so that learning is more likely to be effective.

For you, there may be little or no free study time at the beginning, because you need a lot of time to complete the study tasks assigned by the teacher every day.As your level of study increases, your regular study time will gradually decrease and your free study time will gradually increase.Since there is less free learning time at the beginning, it may not be easy for you to grasp at the beginning, which is precisely the reason why it is difficult to change your passive learning situation.

Darwin said: "I never think that half an hour is an insignificant period of time." If you want to change your learning situation in a hurry, you should seize the free learning time with the spirit of racing against time.Once you seize the free learning time and realize the benefits of learning by seizing the free learning time, you will work hard to improve the efficiency of the regular learning time so as to increase the free learning time and make the learning initiative you have more powerful. Bigger and bigger, a lively learning situation will gradually come.

Ways top students make plans.

Top students will take all aspects into consideration when making plans.

Think about it, when you make a study plan, do you only consider three things: eating, sleeping and studying?Group activities are ignored, physical exercise is not considered, and entertainment and rest have no place in the plan.This kind of "single play one" study plan will make your study life monotonous and boring, which will easily cause fatigue, which will not only affect the learning effect, but also affect the overall development.

In fact, in addition to the time for study, the plan should also have time for social work and collective service; time for sleeping; and time for recreational activities.There can't be only three things in the plan: eat, sleep and study.If the plan is really like this, then the plan is one-sided and unscientific.

Mind, learning, and body all influence each other.When planning, top students must take into account three aspects.

In addition to studying, they also need to arrange social work time, physical exercise time, sufficient sleep time, cultural and entertainment time, etc., so as to ensure their all-round development, maintain strong energy, and enrich their study life. Colorful, lively and interesting.

Top students formulate plans based on learning reality.

The formulation of a plan should proceed from the actual situation of the individual, and the goal should be reasonable, that is, the goal should be neither too high nor too low, and it must be within its means.If the goal is too high, and it is still difficult to achieve after hard work, it will dampen enthusiasm; if the goal is too low, it is easy to achieve, and it will not play a role in promoting learning.The goal is not a fruit that can be picked by reaching out, but a fruit that can only be obtained by jumping or finding a way to find a ladder and climb up.

When formulating a study plan, don't leave the actual situation of the study. Think about it, whether you are very energetic when formulating the study plan, but often ignore the actual situation. As a result, it is difficult to implement it, very nervous, and finally the plan fails Of.

So what is the reality of learning?

One is what knowledge and abilities you will master.

For example, how much knowledge should be accepted and "digested" in this month's study plan?What capabilities should we focus on developing?
The second is the amount of time.

How much study time is actually available at each stage of study?How much regular study time can be arranged?How much free study time can be arranged?
The third is the lack and loopholes in learning.

What are the "debts" you owe in your studies?How much "debt" can be repaid at a certain stage of the study plan?
The fourth is the actual progress of the teacher's teaching.

If you don't understand the progress of teaching, it is difficult to arrange regular study time, and it is even more difficult to arrange free study time.The "bankruptcy" of many personal learning plans is because they do not understand the actual progress of the teacher's teaching, so the learning tasks arranged by themselves are either too heavy or too light, and there will be a phenomenon that the learning content arranged by themselves is out of touch with the teacher's teaching content .Because personal plans are often "shocked" by the teacher's teaching arrangements, some people mistakenly think that "it's useless to make a personal plan, just follow the teacher's way."As a result, I lacked initiative in my learning and wasted a lot of learning time.

If a person's study plan can be organically coordinated with the teacher's teaching progress, it can promote learning.For example, a top student in high school used the free study time to systematically review the content of the electrical part in junior high school one month before the teacher taught the electrical part.Because he was well prepared in terms of knowledge, he went very well in studying electricity in high school. After he finished studying electricity in high school, he used his free study time to review all the electricity in junior high school and high school. , he is much more relaxed than other students.It seems that when arranging a study plan, the teacher's teaching progress must also be considered, so as to achieve good results.

There will be room for top students to make plans.

The specific content and implementation steps of the plan are drawn up before the study. They are assumptions, after all, they are not reality.In order to turn the plan into reality, it will take a period of hard work. During this process, some changes may occur in one's own thoughts, and the various conditions of learning may also change. Unavoidable situations will inevitably arise.For example, some subjects at a certain stage are difficult and have a lot of homework. In this way, the planned regular study time will increase and the free study time will decrease, so the planned learning tasks may not be completed.For another example, sometimes there are more group activities than planned, which takes up more study time and will also affect the implementation of the study plan and so on.Therefore, in order to ensure the realization of the plan, the study plan of the top students will not be set too full, too rigid, or too tight. They must allow themselves a certain amount of maneuvering time, and the goals should not be set too high for themselves.Arrange some learning tasks that have little impact on learning at that time if they cannot be completed during the flexible time, or in other words, arrange some learning tasks that are not time-sensitive.

Due to the certain flexibility in the study time and content arrangement, top students can adapt to temporary changes, and the possibility of completing the plan increases, which is also conducive to enhancing their confidence in learning.

Look back and see if your plan is too rigid, too tight, leaving no room for it?Once there are any changes and shocks, your plan will be easily stranded and difficult to realize. Slowly, you will doubt the necessity of making a study plan, and even cancel the plan altogether.

Then again, top students will try their best to grasp a certain degree of leeway, and they should not leave too much leeway in the plan. Too much leeway will make them slack when implementing the plan and lack the fighting spirit to complete the plan.

Top students will focus on the content of the plan.

Learning time is limited and learning content is unlimited. Top students will focus on key points when making plans and use their strength unevenly.In the plan, we must ensure the key points and take into account the general. The so-called key points: one refers to the weak subjects in one's own study, and the other refers to the key content in the knowledge system.When making a plan, you must concentrate your time and energy to attack the key points.

Top students know how to combine work and rest.

Did you find out that the top students around you are definitely not people who hold books and study hard all day long. They are well versed in the way of civil and martial arts, and they arrange their study and life in a relaxed manner.

This is in line with scientific laws.Because "the official of the heart thinks", thinking depends on the brain, and learning is a hard mental labor process.In order to make the brain nerve cells work normally, the metabolism of brain cells must be guaranteed. Brain cells consume a quarter of the oxygen demand of the human body. When the blood sugar level is 120 mg (referring to 100 ml of blood), the memory is the best; the blood sugar level is When the blood sugar is 60-70 mg, the thinking is slow; when the blood sugar is 45 mg, coma and convulsions.It can be seen that when thinking activities are going on normally, brain cells consume a lot of material and energy, and produce a lot of waste and carbon dioxide.

After numerous experimental studies, scientists who study the brain believe that our brain is the most delicate tissue in the human body, and it is also the tissue that is most prone to fatigue. After a period of intense work, it will also be tired and it also needs to rest.In the state of brain fatigue, people will appear dizzy, inattention, memory loss, slow response and so on.If it is long-term brain fatigue, symptoms such as insomnia, terror, anxiety, and forgetfulness will appear, and sometimes life-threatening.

So when the brain sends us a reminder, we'd better obey the brain's command, put down the books, and go out to play for a while. If you still have to bite the bullet and hold on, then your learning efficiency will definitely decrease. In severe cases, it may really cause brain function. disorder, leading to the occurrence of neurasthenia.

Studies have found that taking an active break of even 10 minutes between classes can increase the efficiency of mental activity by 30%.Some students don't understand the importance of rest between classes, and they are still studying after class. On the surface, it seems that the study is very tight, but they don't know that this gain is far from offsetting the loss caused by it.

The cerebral cortex has two states of excitation and inhibition. When a certain nerve center is excited, other nerve centers are in a state of inhibition and rest. When a certain nerve center is excited for a long time, that is, it is working, it will be protected and inhibited. If you use your brain again, the efficiency will increase. will fall.According to this principle, it is necessary to alternate different learning and activity contents, so that different nerve centers in the cerebral cortex work and rest in turn, so as to ensure the effective display of brain functions.

After studying culture for a period of time, you can do sports, or change to some practical training and learning.So how often should an alternation be done?Generally, one hour is better, of course, this also varies from person to person, and can be determined according to the specific situation of the individual.In addition, after studying for a period of time, listening to music can not only give the brain a rest, but also cultivate people's temperament and cultivate their ability to appreciate music. Improve work efficiency.It is said that Einstein invented the famous formula of the theory of relativity while listening to Beethoven's famous "Symphony of Destiny".

Therefore, when arranging the plan, the top students do not allow themselves to engage in a single activity for a long time.Alternate study and physical activity.For example: study for an afternoon, go to exercise for a while, and come back to study.During exercise, the motor center is excited, while the brain cells in other areas are rested.When arranging subjects, liberal arts and science should be arranged alternately, and similar learning content should not be studied together.

The victory of learning means acquiring new knowledge, but learning consumes a lot of time and energy.If you blindly exert the "desperate" spirit and only know how to study all day long, your head is hanging on the beam, and the awl is piercing, you will only be exhausted in the end, and you will learn nothing.

Top students have to calculate the benefit rate of the plan.

A small river ran through many obstacles, bypassing mountains and rocks, through forests and fields, and ran unimpeded.Finally, it came to the desert, Xiaohe thought: "I have overcome so many difficulties before, so I should be able to succeed this time!" However, its efforts were in vain again and again, the water seeped into the sand, and there was no way around. forward.Xiao He sighed and said: "My best skills are useless, it seems that I am doomed to be mediocre, and I will never reach the sea."

Breeze came to comfort it and said, "I can cross the desert, and you can too, but you have to try to change yourself..."

"Change yourself, sublimate yourself!" Xiao He said silently, but I have never done this before, can I do it?If not, am I not self-destructive?

"You think like this just because you never realized that you still have huge potential, you didn't recognize your own essence, you can do it!" Breeze encouraged.

Xiaohe summoned up his courage and said to himself: "Change yourself, sublimate yourself!" So, it fell into the embrace of the breeze, evaporated, and turned into light water vapor.The next day, it turned into raindrops again, and finally merged into the vast sea.

Everyone is a rushing river, along the way you need to overcome many obstacles in your life in order to make a breakthrough and make progress.In this process, it is very important to be as good at letting go of who you think you are as the river, and make corresponding changes according to your own goals.

When a plan is being implemented, it is inevitable to carry out constant revisions so that the goal can be achieved smoothly.In the process of implementing the plan, top students will calculate the rate of return of the plan from time to time, and adjust the plan according to the rate of return to maximize the rate of return.

Pay attention to the effect and adjust in time.

After the plan is implemented to a certain stage, the top students will check how the learning effect is, so as to adjust the plan in time to make it more practical.

Mainly check the following.

Did you basically do it as planned?Have the planned learning tasks been completed?

How is the learning effect?

Reason for not completing the plan?Where is the arrangement too tight?Where is the arrangement too loose?
After passing the inspection, the top students will immediately start to revise the study plan, or lower the standard, or slow down the speed, and change the unscientific and unreasonable places to make the plan practical and serve the study.
