Priotizing tasks


Welcome back, Softies! 

Today, we're talking about something that can make all the difference in your academic success - prioritizing your tasks. 

As students, we often have multiple deadlines and assignments to juggle, and it can be overwhelming to figure out where to start. That's where prioritization comes in!

First, make a to-do list of all the tasks you need to complete. 

Next, categorize them into three groups - urgent, important, and less important. 

Urgent tasks are those with a deadline coming up soon, while important tasks are those that will have a significant impact on your grades or overall progress. 

Less important tasks can be done later, when you have more time.

Once you've categorized your tasks, it's time to start prioritizing. 

Start with the urgent tasks - these should be your top priority, as they have a deadline coming up soon. 

Next, move on to the important tasks. These might take longer to complete, but they're essential for your academic success, so make sure you give them the time and attention they deserve.

Finally, tackle the less important tasks. These might be things like cleaning your room or organizing your notes, which can be done when you have some free time. By prioritizing your tasks in this way, you can ensure that you're making the most of your time and energy, and achieving the best possible results.



So, Softies, take some time to reflect on your to-do list, and prioritize your tasks using the urgent-important-less important framework. 

Remember, it's all about setting yourself up for success, and making the most of your time and energy. You've got this!

Spaced Repetition: The Secret Study Technique Softies Need to Try

Image
Hey there, fellow softies!   It's Livvy here, and I'm excited to share with you one of my favorite study techniques: spaced repetition .  If you're like me, you know how tough it can be to remember information for the long-term. But fear not - with spaced repetition, you'll be able to master even the most challenging material. So what is spaced repetition, exactly?    At its core, spaced repetition is a study technique that involves reviewing material at gradually increasing intervals over time. By spacing out your reviews of information in this way, you're able to reinforce your memory of that information more effectively. Here's an example of how spaced repetition might work in practice: Let's say you're trying to learn a new language. Rather than cramming for hours the night before a big test, you might use a spaced repetition app like Anki to review vocabulary words at regular intervals. The app will show you each word at increasing intervals - for ...

Use a Whiteboard

Hey there, Softies!  Have you ever considered using a whiteboard as a study tool?  Whiteboards can be an incredibly useful aid in organizing and memorizing information.  Here are some ways you can incorporate a whiteboard into your study routine: 1. Mind-mapping : Use the whiteboard to create a mind map of a topic you're studying. Start with a central idea and branch out with related concepts, using different colors and arrows to connect them. 2. Formulas and equations : If you're studying math or science, a whiteboard is perfect for practicing formulas and equations. You can easily erase and start over until you've mastered the concept. 3. To-do lists : Use the whiteboard to create a to-do list of tasks you need to complete for an upcoming exam or project. As you finish each task, cross it off the list. 4. Summarizing readings : After reading a chapter or article, use the whiteboard to summarize the main points. This will help you remember the information and make study...

Using mnemonic devices

Image
Hey there, Softies!  It's Livvy again, and I'm here to talk about one of my favorite study techniques: using mnemonic devices. Mnemonic devices are memory aids that help you remember information.  They work by associating the information with something else that's easier to remember.  Here are a few examples: Acronyms : These are words formed from the first letter of each word in a list. For example, to remember the order of operations in math (parentheses, exponents, multiplication/division, addition/subtraction), you can use the acronym PEMDAS. Rhymes : Rhymes can be used to remember lists of words or phrases. For example, "i before e, except after c, or when sounding like 'ay' as in neighbor and weigh." Acrostics : These are sentences where each word starts with the first letter of a list of words you're trying to remember. For example, to remember the planets in order from the sun, you can use the acrostic "My very eager mother just served us ...
