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

Chapter 9 Effective Use of Study Time (2)
The famous Harvard psychologist William James believes that if you keep studying for a certain period of time, then whenever you study during that period of time, the relevant parts of the brain will be excited involuntarily, and then you will achieve better results. learning result.

In fact, the living habits of most people are similar. They usually go to bed around 11 o'clock in the evening and wake up at six or seven o'clock in the morning.However, in a day, there must be periods of particularly high energy and particularly low energy. If you work hard for an hour, if you are energetic, the effect will be good; if you are sluggish, your learning efficiency will naturally decrease.If you always maintain strong energy, you will be able to learn easily, but the best time to study in a day varies from person to person, so we must try to arrange the best time and place to study according to our own biological clock.

We can recite English vocabulary at a fixed time and place every morning. Over time and more times, our memory effect will be greatly enhanced, and our learning state will be naturally stimulated.This is like when it's time to eat, people's saliva and gastric juice will naturally secrete more. At this time, people will feel a little hungry and have the desire to eat.

Determine the best time point for personal learning, and after long-term and reasonable use, you can form a habitual rhythm and law.What time to do in a day, what to do next, in an orderly manner, after a long time, it will become a kind of time-use law.In this regular time, the most clear-headed time is undoubtedly used for reciting, memorizing, and creating; the other time is used for reading, browsing, organizing materials, observing, and experimenting.Reasonable arrangement of time will definitely greatly improve your learning efficiency.

Finally, it is worth noting that we have 4 high-efficiency learning periods in one day. If you use them properly, you can easily master, digest, and consolidate knowledge.

(1) After waking up early in the morning, after a night's rest, the brain has eliminated the fatigue of the previous day, the brain nerves are in an active state, and there is no new memory interference. At this moment, the cognition and memory impressions will be very clear, and learning some difficult to remember but must be memorized Things are more suitable, such as the memory and storage of language, laws, events, etc.Sometimes even if you can't remember it by force, the possibility of remembering it aloud several times is stronger than other times. This is the first memory climax.

(2) From 8:10 am to [-]:[-] am is the second high-efficiency learning period. The secretion of adrenal gland and other hormones in the body is strong, the energy is abundant, and the brain has rigorous and careful thinking ability, cognitive ability and processing ability. Now is a good time to overcome difficulties , We should seize the opportunity and make full use of brain excitement to tackle key problems.

(3) The third high-efficiency learning period is from 6:8 pm to [-]:[-] pm. This is the best time to use your brain. Many people use this time to review and review what they have learned throughout the day, deepen their impressions, classify and summarize tidy.This is also a golden time to organize your notes.

(4) One hour before going to sleep is the fourth climax period of learning and memory. Use this time to deepen your impression, especially to review some difficult-to-remember things so that they are not easy to forget.

In short, according to the individual's physiological characteristics, find out the physiological time for learning and memorizing that can achieve the highest efficiency, so as to achieve the best results, so we should try our best to try in many ways.

How long a person learns and memorizes in a day is the most efficient. This is the best point of learning time we want to master.This optimal point is essentially the turning point between time, effect and fatigue. It is a variable, which varies from person to person, and varies from person to person, depending on the content and type of learning.In the process of learning and memorizing, when you feel tired, it is generally the time to turn from the "sweet spot".This kind of signal will tell you that you should change your pattern to do another thing immediately, so that your brain can have a rest, so that time will not be "low consumption".

Once the best time point for personal learning and memory is identified, the rhythm and regularity of the habit can be formed after long-term reasonable use.For example, how many hours of the day are used to remember what, and what to do next, in an orderly manner, and after a long time, it will become a scientific and reasonable rhythm of time use.

Reasonable control, the secret of efficiency in limited time
Planned and methodical control of time can make us clear our goals, relax our minds, and use time efficiently, which is a key factor for many top students to achieve excellent results.

Our study is a step-by-step process, from elementary school to middle school and then to university, it is like a protracted battle, a marathon race, we can only win the final victory if we persevere and manage our study time reasonably.

The Soviet writer Gorky said: "People who don't know what to do tomorrow are unfortunate." Only by making a reasonable allocation of time and energy can we gradually approach our goals.The advantage of using time in a planned way is that you can encourage yourself to study to the end, because the plan is a constraint for us, it is easy for us to develop a good habit, and we can be aware of every bit of progress we have made in learning. It is clear that this is also what motivates planners to keep learning.

Those top students around us are often very planned, with a clear sense of learning rhythm and a peaceful mind.They always ask themselves to follow the plan, no matter how much they like things, such as football games, but if the plan is not completed, no matter how important the football game is, they will not watch it.The secret of their success lies in having a plan and being able to execute it carefully.

A student who was admitted to a prestigious university said this when talking about his successful experience: "From junior high school to high school, my academic performance has always been among the best. I think this is inseparable from my long-term persistence in formulating study plans and rational use of time. Yes. I always have a big frame in my mind when it comes to managing time and arranging courses, but I am not too demanding on the details, nor do I stipulate what must be done at a certain time, so that I can keep learning A certain degree of freedom, full of flexibility. But to achieve this, it must be inseparable from "being confident". In the actual implementation, remember what to do, what to do, and proceed reasonably. I always have spare time at the end. "

Planning and organizing his time was a key factor in this student's success, as it allowed him to be purposeful, relaxed, and use his time efficiently.

Although most of the study time and learning tasks of the students have been arranged by the teachers in the school, this arrangement is not for every student, but only for the management and planning of everyone's "joint study time".We have to spend our time in a planned way according to our actual situation.

There is a student named Liu Hui in a middle school in Guangzhou. After graduating from junior high school, she completed all the high school courses by herself under the guidance of teachers in only 3 months, and was finally admitted to Peking University with excellent grades.

Liu Hui has two tricks to improve the efficiency of time utilization: one is to concentrate, and the other is to arrange time reasonably.

The so-called concentration means that you should be very attentive when studying, and put all your attention on the problems of study and research, and leave other irrelevant things behind.

As for arranging her time reasonably, she does this: every day before breakfast, she memorizes formulas, thinks about theorems, and reads the central issues and chapter points; in the morning, she usually reads textbooks and reference books; At four or five o'clock, find some comprehensive and difficult questions to do.

If you feel tired, read books on other subjects to change your mind.In the evening, continue reading.

For a period of three months before the college entrance examination, she studied when she needed to study, played when she needed to play, watched TV when she needed to exercise, and exercised when she needed to exercise. Time, she used to study from morning to night, but the effect was very bad, because of mental fatigue, it was difficult to concentrate.

Therefore, she believes that it is very important to reasonably grasp the best study time and properly arrange study, rest and exercise for study.

From this, we can see that according to your own situation, you can effectively improve your learning efficiency by controlling your time in a planned way and seizing the best time for learning.

Everyone is equal before time, and we all have the same time.Only when we use our time reasonably and use it to win more time than others can we have a greater advantage than others and be successful.Therefore, only by making reasonable and scientific planning and management of our study time, and implementing it into the study plan, and truly guiding our daily study, can we achieve our goals step by step.

In short, we must keep this sentence in mind: whoever abandons time, time will also abandon him.Only when we cherish time and rationally control our every minute and every second can we make progress in learning and achieve ultimate success in life.

Use your clear-headed time to study efficiently

Our studies are all time-selected. If we want to achieve greater results in the same time, we must use the waking time as effectively as possible.In fact, if we focus our efforts on this time every day, it will be more effective than shortening the sleep time.

However, how to use study or rest time and how to allocate these time is a very difficult thing for elementary and middle school students.

Assuming that there are many factors that are not conducive to learning in the surrounding environment, we can also think of a proper plan.For example: open the textbook, first leave the part of the exercises where the answer is already known, and you only need to write a little more to do it at home. After finishing these parts quickly, read the front and back parts.

Assuming there is still time before the exam, you can read some literature or other books that are not directly useful for the exam, but indirectly helpful.No matter what the environment is, there is always a way to overcome it.

Besides that, there is another way to increase time while awake.Generally speaking, after reading a book for an hour, you should take a 10-minute or 15-minute break, because if you read the same thing for more than an hour, your efficiency will decrease.Therefore, in order to regain efficiency, rest is necessary.

As long as you have enough physical strength, you don't need such a break, but you need to change the subjects you read.Changing reading subjects can also be regarded as a kind of rest.Using this method can strengthen the density of reading.

For example, suppose you study mathematics for an hour, don't take a break after the time is up, and continue to copy formulas or theorems on cards, and do this for about 15 minutes.During this time, although the hands are moving, the mind is resting.Stop after writing the study cards for 15 minutes, and then go to memorize some English words.Alternate in this way without stopping, so that on the one hand, the tired parts can be rested, and on the other hand, other parts can be activated.

For each subject or different content, the body parts used are also different.If you can adjust these differences intelligently, you don't need to rest.

If you are tired from sitting all the time, you can walk back and forth in the room, or lie down and read the notes while reciting aloud.When your eyes are tired, you can read larger fonts.Therefore, there is no need to rest when you are tired, but you should consider resting the tired part of the body and using another part.

This method is particularly beneficial to middle school students who are facing the middle school entrance examination and the college entrance examination.According to this method, you can gradually increase your concentration, so that you can concentrate more on the book, and you can develop another favorable personality, that is, the ability to pass quickly from one thing to another.In other words, it can quickly switch the operation of the brain.

In the process of learning, we should make full use of our waking time to study, because this is not only an important way to improve learning efficiency, but also an effective way to become a top student.Using your waking hours to learn is a great technique, and if you learn like this, your studies will be easy and effective.
