Karina Rivas Profesor Yoshiko Matsushita- Arao psychology -2 23 August 2012 Three Ways To Help Me Study Three ways to help me study are making sure I keep up with my reading, also making sure I that I apply the information to my every day life is one of the last ways is to find out my study skills. After reading all of the options on the very study guide I have found that making sure I have time to read all of the assigned chapters as well as acknologing what my way of learning is and lastly incorporating psychology into my life will surely make me a better student. Keeping up with the reading will be one if not the most important tasks at hand. I will make sure that I set up a specific time specifically for completing the instructed reading assingments. The best time will be from 7 in the afternoon to 9 in the evening. Scince I obtain a part time job this is the time that will be most beneficiary to my schedual. Thankfully it is also around the times where I can focus the best. I fully understand that just reading will not be everything needed to make sure the information is fully understood. Along with the reading the will most defently be parafrasing and annotating. These are some of the many things that are valuable when it comes to reading and getting a deeper understanding of the text. Talking about what I learned in Psychology with my piers is one way of applying what I learned will help me get different views of what I learned. Their different views and oppinions on the subject would brighten and enlighten my horizen on the subject at hand. A study group is a sure way to make sure that I am discusing the different topics with people that will have some type of understanding of what I am refering to. Therefore signing up for the study group is something that I intend on doing. It sounds like a way to ensure a quite and productive enviorment to wich I can fufill my needs as not only a psychology student but a scucessfull one. Lastly finding out what my study skills is something that will defenetly need to be established. Personally I am not yet fully ware of what specific type of learning technique I should use in order to be scusessfull when studying not just psycology but other subjects.While reading the study guide I came opon a website where you can log on to called learning styles Inventory. This perticuallar site allows you to determine what style or studying is most benefitiary to each individual. I allso read that there is something fermiliar to this website at our very own Hartnell College. Going to the Academic learning center and taking learning style styles Inventory. Eather option is are great tools that will be helpful in getting a better understanding on the way that I learn as an individual.
