Bring some plants into your workspace! Research shows that the presence of plants can enhance cognitive function and reduce stress levels, leading to better academic performance
Concentrating is hard especially if it is a hard subject or a boring subject. While studying has never been the most exciting aspects of school, it doesn’t have to be the drag that it is made out to be. With a sense of determination, and by implementing some effective study techniques, even the dullest subjects can be conquered with increased concentration during a study session.
Find an appropriate study environment.
Generally, it is a good idea to eliminate distractions as much as possible while studying, so you can concentrate on what’s in front of you. You want to find a place that is aesthetically pleasing and comfortable for you.
- Find a quiet area, such as a private room or a library. If you like fresh air, go outside to an area that is reasonably free of distractions, and somewhere you can still connect to Internet, if necessary.
- Keep in mind that everyone has their own studying environment preferences. While some prefer to study in quiet, others thrive in a bustling environment that mimics white noise.
- Always believe in yourself.
- f you don’t know your studying preferences, experiment in different areas, studying in a group or studying solo, studying with or without music, etc. Your ability to concentrate and be productive in different environments will reveal itself rather quickly.
Increase your Productivity While You Study
Productivity is a measure of the results, or output, produced by the effort you have put forth. Ideally, you want the maximum amount of work possible for the lowest action.
This is especially important when you are working with limited time, as most students do. You have so much reading, homework, and studying to do, and still, somehow attend classes, juggle a job, and meet family commitments.
Making the most of your time is essential to not burning out. This simple strategy will explain precisely how you can make to most of your productive time, ensuring you get maximum output for your efforts.
One of the most important components of productivity is concentration. The only problem is that concentration is quickly depleted. If you spend too much time in deep focus, you are going to burn out.
All those thoughts you stuffed down will come bubbling up simply because they are fresh, new, not related to this chapter of your textbook. And frankly, they are probably a lot more interesting.
