Super top students: the most efficient learning method for top students

Chapter 43 Learning should also pay attention to cooperation (1)
In cooperative learning, comprehensively improve the knowledge structure

Human beings are inherently cooperative. During study, we need to cooperate with classmates, and after work, we need to cooperate with colleagues.Being good at cooperation and having the spirit of cooperation is the basic ability of every top student.

Cooperative learning can help us complete learning tasks creatively, and help to cultivate our spirit of cooperation and competition; in the process of cooperative learning, we can also find out the differences between each other, which helps to publicize our respective personalities. Cooperative learning can also pass Talking to each other, encouraging each other, helping each other, understanding each other and actively discussing each other cultivated our interpersonal skills, allowing everyone to easily achieve their own learning goals and achieve a win-win situation.

Confucius once said, "If you study alone without friends, you will be ignorant and ignorant." Therefore, if you can often communicate and cooperate with classmates and friends during the learning process, it will be of great help to your study.

It is conceivable that a top student must have a group of like-minded friends.

A nursery rhyme that we are familiar with sings like this: "One monk carries water to drink, two monks carry water to drink, and three monks have no water to drink. You ask why?"

Then he sang the answer: "The elder monk said that I carried the most water, the second monk said that newcomers should work more, the younger monk said that my body was too thin when I was young, and the old monk said that I am not thirsty when I am old."

A small nursery rhyme expresses the sadness of "lack of cooperative spirit" in human nature.

According to a survey, when asked "how do you solve difficulties in your studies", 57% of the students chose "overcome difficulties by themselves", 26% of the students chose "ask the teacher", and Less than 20% of students "ask classmates for advice"!When asked "Why don't you want to ask your classmates for advice", many students replied: "How embarrassing!" "I think they are not as good as me!" deep worry.

If a person can often communicate and cooperate with classmates and friends in the process of learning, it will be of great help to learning.With the development of society, people are now more and more emphasizing the importance of cooperation. It is impossible for one person to master all the knowledge. Only through cooperation can we achieve a win-win situation.

Specifically, cooperating and communicating with classmates in your studies will help you in the following ways:

(1) Discussing the problems you encounter in your studies with other students can often help you correct some wrong views, and also provide you with clues to solve unsolved problems.

(2) Tell other students about your understanding of learning or certain knowledge, which will help you clarify your thinking.

(3) Discuss and encourage each other among classmates, which can enhance your motivation to study, enhance friendship with each other, learn together, and improve together. In this sense, classmates are also your teachers.

However, many students do not give full play to the role of "little teachers" around them, and it is not very common for students to discuss and learn together.Many students occasionally ask another classmate a question. If he is rejected, he will not have the courage to ask this classmate for advice next time, or even ask other students for advice.He will regard this small setback as an incomparably huge matter, and secretly resent the classmates who rejected him.

When students are together, in order to strengthen cooperation and communication, mobilize the learning atmosphere and improve learning efficiency, the following methods can be used:

1. Discuss difficult issues
Self-study alone, the doubts and difficulties are not easy to figure out for a while, and it is often difficult to open your mind.If several students get together, discuss with each other, and express their opinions, it is easy to get a satisfactory answer.

There are two famous scientists in France, Proust and Bessole. In order to explore the "law of definite ratio" in chemistry, they argued fiercely for 9 years. Finally, Proust solved this problem, but he put half of the Credit goes to Betholler.He said that it was the various doubts raised by Bessole that inspired his wisdom and made him study this issue more deeply.Kalinin once warned young people: "When you read alone, you only understand one side. Even if you understand three sides, you haven't understood the fourth side. When you finally understand all four sides, you don't know that this thing is not a tetrahedron. , but a cube with a total of six sides. Therefore, discussing with others can sharpen and enrich thoughts.”

2. Lecture on stage
If several people work together, one person will go to the "podium" like a teacher and "teach" the learning content, and other students will check and supplement while checking, so that they can effectively and comprehensively master the learning content, because after listening to or reading it once, it will be possible in a month. Forget, if you teach people once, you will never forget it.

3. Response memory
In the process of learning, you can memorize by listening, reading, and writing repeatedly, but it is inevitable that you will feel boring when you memorize alone, and it is easy to inhibit your thinking.A good method of memorizing is that several students memorize together, ask each other, answer each other, if one person can’t answer, others can remind, and there is competition among several students, which can stimulate your thinking, Improve memory effect.

4. Fun learning

In a sense, studying is indeed hard work, and it requires a lot of effort from you.However, we can think of some ways to make learning easy and interesting, and reduce the mental load that learning brings to us.It is not only very interesting for several students to carry out study meetings, seminars, math games, poetry answers, performances of foreign languages, spoken English, dramas, etc., but also deepen our understanding and mastery of knowledge.

The great British writer Bernard Shaw once had such a famous saying: "If you have an apple and I have an apple, and we exchange each other, then we still each have an apple; but if you have a kind of thinking, I also have a kind of thinking." Thoughts, and we communicate with each other, then each of us has at least two kinds of thoughts.” This famous saying just rightly illustrates the beauty of cooperation and communication in learning. If several people study and communicate together, it will promote everyone’s Learn more.

Through cooperation and exchanges, everyone may get two or more "apples", so why not do it?Therefore, in our usual study, we must develop the habit of cooperating and communicating with classmates, so as to improve our academic performance together.

In addition, a good classmate relationship helps everyone understand each other.In order to achieve mutual understanding between each other, it is necessary to strengthen communication, strengthen communication in terms of ideas and attitudes, and engage in more social activities in spare time, such as playing ball, chess, outings, etc., to enhance understanding and friendship, so as to lay a solid foundation for future study. Cooperate and exchange services to improve academic performance together.

Good way to share with everyone

Sharing your own things with others is a manifestation of wisdom. If you have good learning methods and share them with others, not only will you not lose anything, but you can also exchange learning methods with others, and you will also discover many new methods , and even complement your own learning methods.

In learning, helping your classmates is tantamount to helping yourself.The problems encountered by the students are often the places that they are easy to neglect. If you explain clearly to the students, you can also deepen your impression.As for those students whose foundation is too weak, it takes some thought to make the explanation so that they can fully understand, how to connect the knowledge points into a system, and how to explain the problem-solving skills in a simple way.This kind of explanation is better than my own systematic review. At least the key points that I tend to miss will be continuously strengthened in the students' questions.

However, some people think that other students are their own competitors, and if they share their learning methods with others, others will surpass themselves.In order to maintain your own advantage, it is best not to help others.This is an extremely wrong way of thinking.

Some education experts have found that more than 80% of students with excellent academic performance get along well with their classmates, and are willing to take the initiative to help others and share their learning experience with others.

In this regard, Li Xiangyang, who was admitted to a prestigious school, talked about his own experience. His experience is: when interacting with classmates, one should be open-minded.He was outstanding in mathematics in high school, so he was surrounded by classmates who were not ideal in mathematics. He had to deal with many of their problems every day, but he never refused, because he thought it was a kind of reciprocity. I also gain a lot when helping others to answer questions, especially those students who ask him for help sometimes find out various types of questions, and some even make him helpless. Instead, he thanked them for finding the loopholes in his study for him.

Let's look at two more stories.

(One)

Every year, in a small town in California, a pumpkin variety competition is held.There is a farmer who has bred an outstanding variety. Every time he wins a big prize, he always distributes the seeds of the winning variety to his neighbors. He is not stingy at all.

Some people find it very strange and ask why they do this.

The farmer replied with a smile: "I distribute the good seeds to everyone, to help everyone, and to help myself."

It turned out that the farmer's estate was connected to his neighbor's.If the farmer distributes the winning seeds to neighbors in the neighborhood, he can prevent the bees from passing pollen from neighboring poorer varieties to his own in the process.

This way, the farmer can concentrate on researching new varieties.

(two)

Once upon a time, there was a Jewish elder who loved playing golf.One day, the elder suddenly felt like playing golf.According to the regulations of Judaism, believers must rest on this day and cannot do anything.However, the elder couldn't stand it anymore and decided to go to the golf course secretly.

When I came to the golf course, there was no one on the empty course.The elder thought happily: Anyway, no one saw me playing golf. I only need to play 9 holes and go back. There should be no problem!

So the elder happily started playing.As soon as he played the second hole, he was discovered by an angel.The angel was very angry, so he went to God to complain, asking God to punish the elder.

God promised the angels to punish the elders.

At this time, the elder was playing the third hole.I saw him swing the club lightly, and the ball went into the hole.How perfect this ball is, the elder is very happy!
The angel watched all this silently.To her surprise, the elders scored the next few shots with one shot.The angel was very puzzled and very angry.She ran to God again and said, "God, don't you want to punish this elder? Why don't you punish him?"

God said, "I'm already punishing him!"

The angel looked at the elder, and saw that the extremely excited elder had already forgotten his plan to play only 9 holes, and decided to play another 9 holes.The angel asked God puzzled: "Why didn't I see that you were punishing him?" God smiled and said nothing.

The elder played another 9 holes, and each time he scored the hole with one stroke. The elder was very happy.However, after a while, he showed a displeased expression.

God said to the angel earnestly: "Have you seen it? He has achieved such excellent results and is very happy in his heart, but he can't tell anyone about it, and he can't share his joy with anyone. It's not right for him. Best punishment?"

The angel suddenly realized.

Sharing is ubiquitous. Knowing how to share with others is not limited to learning, caring and helping people around you, and sharing happiness with others. This will not only bring joy to others, but also bring joy to your own life and study. come to happiness.If we always refuse to communicate, or fear that others are better than us, we will become very narrow-minded.So, helping others is also improving yourself.

When you know how to share your learning methods with others, you will feel that you tend to be more magnanimous, decent, polite, and socially adaptable in dealing with others.

When we share what we have learned with others, not only will we not lose, but what we gain will expand and increase, and we can also make ourselves better.

Integrate into the group, efficient memory

When it comes to learning, there is an often-overlooked way to enhance your memory, and that is being part of a group.

Confucius, a famous thinker in our country, once said that "if three people walk together, there must be my teacher" and "one who studies alone without friends is lonely and ignorant".Therefore, if you can often communicate and cooperate with classmates and friends during the memory learning process, it will be of great help to your memory learning.

For example, we can hold a collection of English words, and two or three people will carry out a memory competition.Someone says the word, someone else says its meaning.Or one person speaks the Chinese translation, and the others answer with the corresponding English words.By doing this, you can make your memory correct, and you can also clarify words that you haven't remembered yet.

In addition, even if you intend to write down the knowledge you get from books by yourself, the result is limited.It is necessary to write an outline, read it aloud, and read it many times, but it will be more effective if two or three people complement each other's deficiencies.

In this sense, organized study sessions and book clubs are very effective in verifying knowledge.The most suitable number of participants is two or three or four.

Specifically, the memory methods integrated into the group can be divided into conversation memory method, debate memory method and teaching to promote learning memory method.

1. Conversation memory method

The so-called conversational memory method is a method of memorizing or deepening and consolidating memory by talking with the other party about the content that needs to be memorized.When friends talk to each other, they should not only listen to each other's opinions, but also express their own opinions in a targeted manner, which can promote concentration and keep the mind in a state of positive thinking, and avoid absent-mindedness, slackness, and just thinking that often occur when studying alone. Unexpected situation.Consciously talking with others about the content of learning and memorizing can produce a deeper impression on the content of learning and memorizing, and form a more comprehensive and accurate memory.

This conversation memory method has a very wide range of applications and can be used for the learning of knowledge in various subjects and the memory of various materials.When using the conversation memory method, the participants in the conversation must have a clear and consistent topic, and the conversation and discussion should be carried out around the determined topic, and the conversation parties should express their opinions and express their views frankly, so as to make the conversation go smoothly To achieve the purpose of promoting memory through conversation.

Before and after class, when we are walking or chatting with our classmates, we can use the difficult problems in the study as the topic of conversation. If you say something to me, the difficult problems may be solved.This kind of activity can not only encourage everyone to take the initiative to explore and solve problems, cultivate a strong interest in learning, but also improve oral expression skills and enhance friendship among classmates.Through conversation, the memory that has not yet taken root and the memory that has no self-confidence will become a definite and real memory, which will be firmly imprinted in the mind.

2. Teaching to promote learning and memorization

The so-called method of teaching to promote learning and memory is a method of promoting and consolidating memory by teaching others what has just been learned.This method can make your memory of knowledge more clear, complete and accurate.

Nadya Maheva of the Moscow Verdlov School was a very good student. Her grades were not stable at first, and then she thought of a way:
Assume that you are a teacher, and you have prepared a lesson plan, teaching notes, and a list of students.After she lectures her imaginary students, she asks the "students" questions, and then she plays the students to answer the questions, scoring each answer.After a period of time like this, Nadya's academic performance has made a significant leap.

Leo Tolstoy said: "Knowledge is real knowledge only when it is acquired by active thinking and not by memory." And the process of preparing to speak is to use this active thinking the process of.In order to teach others some kind of knowledge, you must first master this kind of knowledge yourself.The intention and desire of teaching others will cause a certain amount of psychological pressure on oneself, so that one will have a sense of urgency to learn and memorize knowledge, thus promoting one's own learning and memorization.If you want to tell others, you must express it in your own language, instead of parroting it.
