Study
the trick to all this is:
- learn once
- make sure you remember
- get as much done as possible
guide
format - table
notes
Use
- sides
- left - concepts
- right - answer
- 1 concept/answer/row
- write down everything - opt's
- known
- needed for test
- highlight - >important
- summary - after class
notes
- notebook notes - already its own study guide
- studying that while writing it - will be its own study session
- not much left after that -> study
- study guide
- purpose - summary
- of - class
- benefit - look back
- on - that
- after - class
- is - over
- -> remember (/review) it
- after - class
- on - that
- called - '5 second study'
- if - use notes already
- purpose - summary
- study guide
- replaces - flash cards
- see
- both sides - same time
- all - at once
- both sides - same time
- if you still want to - use StudyStack
- see
Use
- time
- all
- study guide
- max - 5 days
- min - 5 min's
- fastest - 5 seconds
- 1 read through
- see - above
- read through - all
- anything not known - go back to those
- until - correct
- after - opt's
- be done
- go over - all - again
- repeatedly - until understood
- when
- every - 30 min's
- forgot
- or - relax brain
- for - 20 min
- or - whenever relaxed
- study - after - that
- to - intentionally forget
- for - 20 min
- or - relax brain
- after - opt's
- until - correct
- anything not known - go back to those
partner - ideal
- nothing - pressured, forced
- keys
- talks - thoroughly
- when - needing -> talk - what's on their mind
- i.e. - w/ - personality
- study sys - ready - -> go
- for - <talking, >working
- unless - needs -> figure out - how -> set - it up
- and - needs help - w/ that
- unless - needs -> figure out - how -> set - it up
- for - <talking, >working
- talks - thoroughly
- decentralized
- they work on their project
- and I work on mine
- sharing progress - process
- share - what's needed to be worked on, when it's finished, what's next
- optimally - share doc's
- for - live feed
- optimally - share doc's
- share - what's needed to be worked on, when it's finished, what's next
- reason - automated
- for - < - effort, time
- they work on their project
- is
- quiet - while working
- except
- ex's - status notifications, helping out, etc.
- situation - talk and work
- instead of - talking
- reads - personal website
- writes - thoughts
- into - own - personal website
- for - others - -> read
- instead of them talk - too
- for - others - -> read
- into - own - personal website
- writes - thoughts
- reads - personal website
- except
- ever-present
- if not - lets the other know - what's going on
- -> - be present
- no matter - where they are, what happens
- -> - be present
- if not - lets the other know - what's going on
- quiet - while working
- helps each other
- out of messes
- if - stuck
- i.e. - unsticks
- if - stuck
- through - work
- -> - get it done fully
- out of messes
Group
steps
Note:
- everyone gathers in a circle
- one person reads a paragraph
- the person two places behind the reader in the circle is asked 3 questions - by - the reader - from - the paragraph read
- the reader keeps the book concealed to the answerer
- when the answerer answers, the reader verifies if the answers are correct
- if not, the question is answered by the next person
- everyone that knows the answer raises their hand
- the next person behind the answerer gets to answer
- it's verified if it's correct by the reader
- if it's incorrect, it goes onto the next one with their hand raised
- if no one knows, the reader gives the answer
- after all the questions are answered, the book goes to the next person in the direction opposite of the answerer)
- the next paragraph is read by them and steps 3-12 are repeated
- this keeps going until the entire book section needed to be read (for hw, tests, etc.) is read
Note:
- sometimes things might take a long time
- it's very easy -> waste time
- however - it's important to give everything its due
- not - rush
- shows everyone - how hard it is -> work on - that problem
- alt
- instead of - writing - everything out
- better - shortcut
- write - what you would do
- instead - of - doing it
- if - possible
- like - pseudocode

- that said - if a problem's going to be a while
- while the person's working on it
- rotate

- if - person's done/ready
- switch back -> them

Brain partitioningNote: this is only if you're brain isn't already capable of study on its own, right away, frictionlessly
like how modern society is split up into its own channels (roads, freeways, etc.) for everything to have a path to get what its needs done, the brain needs to be further split to continue society's tunnels through your own mind and back out of it. distractions: nest multitasking - if you don't have time to do something - you don't have to 'make' time. Just infuse what you're normally doing with what you're working on. |
- this is related to multi-tasking/stacking/nesting - where while the study part of your brain is in the study room, the distracted part of your brain may be somewhere else.
- With minds, there's no division between reality, mentality, and virtuality - so the distracted part of your brain could be listening to music in your head or watching tv. It can even be running around your study room. However, if it gets in the way, section it off or move it out of the way.
- see below about giving everything its due
- you do this by giving it something else to do, somewhere else, in some other direction - to keep it away from your studying
- this will let you study in your brain while other parts of your brain get other stuff done
- avoid denying other parts of your brain from its activities, as otherwise it'll be problematic - as in get in the way of your studies:
- it doesn't get what it needs
- it comes back to your studying
- note - if it overloads your brain
- it's only temporary
- once the other parts of your brain are finished, or on course, it'll consume less brain power
- if it's still bad, you can drop what you're doing to help it out
- and then go back

Mental study room
Like VR rooms for your mind, create a study room to study in - in your mind. This is called a 'mental study room'. This will let you focus better, as you have a designated place in your mind to study in. This makes it possible to study anywhere, no matter what reality looks like - it takes you away from all that.
Steps
Choose from different scenarios:

Steps
- when switching to your study room - set it up.
- use music, pictures, etc. in reality or your mind to create a conception of what it looks like.
- also use these to help you remember and get into your study room
- enter your study room.
- if anything needs to be improved - change it
- once your study room is letting you study to where the music, pictures, etc. are distracting, get away from them (like turn the music off, etc.)
- use whatever you need to to keep its permanence: remember, draw, create a file on the computer of what it looks like, add it in VR, etc.
- go back to what you remember - every time you need your study room to study
- feel free to create more rooms that are adjacent to your study room - like a workshop, relaxation quarters, etc.
- this is especially important for your distracted part of your brain and other brain/body/other people functions - see note above.
- it's always important to give everything its due and put everything on its course, to let it be out of the way - for you to get what you need to done
