8 Ways To Enhance Learning And Make It More Enjoyable


 
1. Be Interested:- Be absorbed in something and you more readily learn it. When you study because you enjoy it, your learning is deeper, richer, and last longer, you will be more persistent, more creative, and more eager to do challenging work.
2. Relate Learning to Life:- When there is a direct connection between classroom learning and your practical experience, there is an electrical spark that turns on the light bulb of understanding, and you will understand what you learn better.
3. Try to comprehend;- When people try to understand something, they stimulate both their thinking ability and their memory.
4. Concentrate:- Concentrate is the very heart of learning, it is so important that it has been called a fundamental prerequisite of intelligence and has even been equated with intelligence itself. The only key to concentration is to start with brief periods of study and then lengthen them incrementally.
5. Paraphrase:- paraphraseing redues information into smaller, manageable chunks, which are easier to remember. Good not takes exploit this principle by not taking note verbatim.
6. Associate new things with what you already know:- Recall is enhanced when you clearly associate new things with what you already know. The more associations you make, through more better the recall.
7. Visualize:- Visualize material where possible, create exaggerated or humorous mental pictures as a memory aid.
8. Review:- Within 24hours, we can forget upto 80 % of what we studied. By doing a brief preview after a study session, then again a day, week an even six months later, we vastly improve our recall, even raising it to nearly 100 %

The best way to remember something is to change it, transform the information in some manner. If its visual, make it verbal, if its verbal create a diagram or picture of it. This approach make study not only more rewarding but also more enjoyable
