Some teenagers are too confident in their ability to learn when they enrol in college. They might not be worried about how they would perform in their university classes because they may have always been good students.
So whenever they received their first subpar midterm grade, their confidence would always crumble. Typically, they are unable to comprehend what had occurred. How did this happen? Why didn’t my typical study strategies for me work?
Your university work is intricate and demands critical thinking. It is no longer sufficient to know the textbook by heart.
Here are 6 common studying mistakes that I’ve learned to avoid
THE PROBLEM
You settle into a convenient study location and don’t get up. You don’t even consider taking a break because it would be unnecessary time-wise. Do you not realize that the exam is in 48 hours?
THE SOLUTION
You won’t learn much whether you do this because you believe it to be effective or because you waited until the last minute.
For the brain to properly process information, it must rest. The key here is to plan. Determine when you should begin studying each section of the material by working backwards from your deadlines rather than just concentrating on them.
In contrast to cramming, you’ll feel less overwhelmed and more capable of learning the material. Try the Pomodoro technique if you really need to get things done (hey, it happens to everyone): 25 minutes on, 5 minutes off, with a longer break every 4 circuits.
Over extended periods of hard work, it prevents you from becoming worn out and keeps you feeling refreshed.
THE PROBLEM
Even though you try to study by reading the textbook, you always underline everything and forget everything.
THE SOLUTION
It turns out that passively reading a textbook again is not very helpful. It doesn’t necessarily mean you’re paying attention to the material just because you have a highlighter in your hand.
Taking notes while you read will force you to choose which passages are important enough to remember, which will help you learn how to read actively.
Make flashcards or come up with practice questions. You are more likely to remember the information if you use all five of your senses while studying.
Consider the themes your professor might ask about and create some potential outlines if your exam includes an essay portion. You’ll be in the right frame of mind even if your practice questions don’t actually appear on the test!
THE PROBLEM
You attempt to work on assignments for all of your classes at once by alternating between them frequently. This one comes up a lot during finals.
THE SOLUTION
Actually, multitasking is a really bad skill, people. Our brains never have time to fully adapt to working on the two tasks we appear to focus on simultaneously because we are switching between them so quickly.
Regrettably, advance planning is the only way to avoid this one. Plan your study time and decide which days you’ll focus on which subjects.
As a result, you’ll be able to process the information more quickly than you would if your focus were divided between multiple tasks, and you’ll feel more confident about what you’ve learned overall.
THE PROBLEM
You text friends, check ten different social media sites, watch Netflix (or worse), listen to loud music, and study while your phone buzzes on your desk every five seconds.
THE SOLUTION
SHUT. IT. DOWN. It’s simple enough to become sidetracked without adding to your own disturbances.
Turn off your phone, avoid using the internet unless it is absolutely necessary, and reduce background noise. If you must use the internet, use apps like StayFocusd or Freedom to stay focused.
Avoid music you like to sing along to or heavy rhythmic tunes; low-volume coffee shop buzz and instrumental (preferably classical) music are fine. I enjoy working while listening to movie scores.
THE PROBLEM
You only study in solitude and refuse to ask anyone else for help.
THE SOLUTION
While studying alone is acceptable and even preferred, having others to bounce ideas off of can be incredibly beneficial (even over Zoom!).
Persuade a friend or member of your family to let you “teach” them the material; when you attempt to explain a subject to an illiterate person, your understanding gaps will become more evident.
Most importantly, use your professors to your advantage and contact them if you have any questions. You won’t regret it.
THE PROBLEM
You suddenly realize how much work you must do and completely freak out, ripping up pages and curling into a ball under your desk.
THE SOLUTION
Go on a break. Eat a nutritious snack, stroll to clear your head, stretch your sore muscles, or take a deep breath. Oh, and perhaps substitute water for the coffee. Everybody experiences moments of overwhelm; occasionally, it takes a little time away to clear your head.
While Obi finished third place by polling 6,101,533, Tinubu raked in 8,794,726 to emerge the winner of the keenly contested poll.
The presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Mr Peter Obi, has faulted the conduct of the 2023 general elections, citing irregularities in the just concluded exercise.
Following the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC)‘s announcement of the results on Wednesday, Obi, 61, was defeated by Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) of the ruling party by almost two million votes.
Tinubu won the hotly contested election with a total of 8,794,726 votes, beating out Obi in third place with 6,101,533.
On Thursday in Abuja, Obi spoke at a press conference: “Have we really spent billions on this? Instead of announcing what we announced, we ought to have done something else with those billions.”
The former governor of Anambra insisted that he had won the presidential election on February 25 and would use every legal strategy to reclaim the office.
The LP presidential candidate claims that last Saturday’s election fell short of the requirements for a free and fair process.
He continued, telling his supporters to remain composed and that their support would not go in vain.
Obi stated that he and his team are dedicated to improving Nigeria and expressed hope that the legal system will assist him in reclaiming the mandate that was wrongfully taken from him.
He described the outcome of the presidential poll as unfair, vowing to challenge the result in court.
“We will look into every peaceful and legal option to reclaim our mandate. We will demonstrate to Nigerians that we won the election.
When Obi appeared before the media for the first time following the election umpire’s declaration of a winner, he said, “I am challenging the process,” in front of a room full of journalists in the capital of Nigeria.
“This is very unfair. It is the least expected of Nigeria,” he added.
Obi observed a minute of silence for each person hurt or killed during the February 25 election right at the start of the briefing.
Julius Abure, the party’s National Chairman, and Akin Osuntokun, the director general of Obi’s presidential campaign, are also present at the briefing.
He also said he and his running mate, Datti Baba-Ahmed, remain committed to a new Nigeria.
On Friday, the Supreme Court overturned the Central Bank of Nigeria’s (CBN) naira redesign policy, which had recently plunged the country into economic anarchy.
The country’s highest court ruled that the policy violated the 1999 constitution and ordered that the old N200, N500, and N1000 notes continue to be in use until December 31, 2023.
The decision prevented President Muhammadu Buhari and the CBN from implementing the naira redesign policy to its full extent.
The court issued a restraining order against Buhari, preventing him from withdrawing the old N200, N500, and N1000 banknotes that are still in use, in its decision on the lawsuit brought by 16 states and led by Governors Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna State and his counterparts in Zamfara and Kogi States, Bello Matawalle and Yahaya Bello.
The Supreme Court found that the President “did not follow the provisions of the constitution before implementing the policy” in the ruling read by Justice Emmanuel Agim.
According to the court, the National Economic Council and National Security Council were not consulted before the policy was implemented.
As a result, the court decided that both the old and new banknotes could be used until December 31, 2023.
Malam Nasir El-Rufai, the governor of Kaduna State, and the governors of Zamfara and Kogi states, Bello Matawalle and Yahaya Bello, respectively, filed the original lawsuit contesting the policy, demanding an extension of the February 10 deadline set by the CBN to end the legal tender status of the old notes.
States like Lagos, Rivers, Cross River, Ogun, Ekiti, Ondo, and Sokoto joined as co-plaintiffs at the first hearing before Justice John Okoro on February 15, while Bayelsa and Edo States joined as respondents on behalf of the Federal Government.
As more states desired to participate in the case, the number of co-plaintiffs gradually increased to sixteen.
The Supreme Court, a panel of seven justices chaired by Justice Okoro, postponed the case during the preliminary hearing until Wednesday, February 22, and then again until March 3, when the final decision was rendered.
In the heat of the debate, Buhari, in a speech on February 16, gave a directive that the old N200 notes would be reissued to run alongside the newly designed notes in a bid to douse tension caused by the policy.
