The four main steps for a successful approach to studying

• Deconstruct the skill of studying into its three component parts

• Learn the components well enough to self-regulate and self-correct when studying becomes stalled

• Remove barriers to studying

• Study consistently

The ‘gateway’ to studying

This allows us to focus and concentrate on the study materials. A lack of attention is like shutting a door to incoming information to the brain.

But being human means that our minds wander and get distracted. The Attention component includes four strategies that teach our brain to reign in distractedness and hone our ability to focus.

The ‘fuel’ that our brain requires to function at a high level

Mental energy is what helps us sustain focused attention. It fuels our cognitive work and is especially important for the hard mental work of memory consolidation.

Just like athletes who fuel their bodies for high performance, we can fuel our brain for high performance studying.

We explore four strategies that enhance mental energy for studying.

The 6 memory strategies show how to strengthen memory formation, how to capitalize on the brain’s extraordinary ability to remember symbols and pictures, how to avoid memory degradation, how to avoid cognitive overload, and more.
