Web Enhanced Reading and study Strategies Blog Post

Hello everyone,

I am directing my post to students, I always prefer to direct my post to students because I feel they need more help than the professional audience. Module 4 is very helpful and includes a lot of tips about online readings, effective group study, working on one assignment. In each module, I learn new tips and tricks to be successful but the most useful things that I have learned from module 4 are on how to interact with my online reading, I don’t like to read but like everyone, one knows that reading is very important in order to succeed at school. Highlighting the important information as theories, conclusions, to add ons.. in the text are very helpful, highlighting will help us to come back and revise anytime. Margins to summarize key ideas is one of the useful tips too, developing diagrams to support my understanding is one of the tips that I have been already using it, I am a visual person and those diagrams or timeline helps me out. A group studying sometimes is successful and helps a lot there are rules for the group study, setting goals, setting criteria to participate, asking and answering questions will help the group study to be active and share information and be successful. Working on one assignment at a time, I don’t really like multitasking or doing multiple assignments at a time, but as I get busier sometimes I have to multitask. to avoid multitasking, I can plan my study time, set a timer to know how long I will study and how often I will take breaks. The most important point is closing all the web browsers while taking notes in class, which I exactly do the opposite sometimes I feel bored or work on an assignment during class which is not useful. Turn off the cell phone and email while writing a paper in order to concentrate on the paper itself. the last thing going back and forth between tasks will slow and waste time. Those tips that I have found the most useful out module 4 and I will use those tips to be successful.
