What is the best rate of study?

I had an epiphany while I was standing in the rain watching my son's team practice for soccer. My son was in junior high school at the time and he has been doing soccer since he was in kindergarten. I had been a teacher and language coach for around 16 years at the time but I never could settle on how much was the best amount of time to study to really achieve results. So, there I was standing in the rain watching my breath dissipate in the air in front of me wondering why the heck they had to practice every day. My mind flashed to Malcolm Gladwell's book Outliers and his theory about needing 10,000 hours to become proficient at something. That was it, not only the amount of time but the total immersion of the mind and commitment to a regular rhythm were a key to reaching the next level.

Doubtlessly the more time you dedicate to something, the more you can see improvement, but the rhythm of soccer practices suggested to me that constant and frequent repetition is also important. I thought this was the way to get the students at the company I was teaching at to remember some words for their TOEIC goals. I set up a practice sheet where every three days they had to focus on a single word. The first day, they look up the word in English (afterwards Japanese was permitted) then on the second day they had to come up with a practice sentence. If they followed this program, they would think about the word on successive days and interact, making a better chance to remember. On the third day they would get another chance and they would find some synonyms for the word. The following day was a new word and the cycle began again. The problem is that the students didn't follow the theoretical path and only studied everything on one day, before their class. The most serious students did follow it and I thought it was a good program. The beauty of it was that the students should be thinking about English everyday. They established a rhythm, even if just for 10-15 minutes. If I were stricter about it, I think we would have seen more results.

Looking through the Internet at ideas about how much to study, theories range between 20 minutes and 3 hours per day. An interesting post by Ouino (We know, get it?) language says 30 minutes of active studying and 1 hour of exposure is good. Of course they are promoting their business so it's merely a theory. If you don't subscribe to Medium, you will be trapped by the pay wall, but this post says 1-2 hours is best for rapid language acquisition.

I will say it again though, I believe that the true key lies in the daily rhythm more than the amount of study, though logically more time spent should yield more results.

this morning i had a 9:30 meeting but i overslept after turning off my alarm and woke up at 9:29 😵‍💫!! i logged into the meeting 4 minutes late, but luckily my supervisor was also late because she was in the wrong virtual room so we both ended up profusely apologizing for being late lolol. lesson learned: don't schedule 9:30 meetings !! i got to log off early today and explored downtown, getting coffee and chasing the sunset 🌇 also came home and studied jazz history, which i've been doing for fun :))

#bless my circadian rhythm for waking me up 1 minute before that meeting omggg #i don't even know what i would tell my supervisor if i missed it😭#chaotic academia #city #downtown #tea-tuesday #studyspo #study inspiration #studyblr #mine #books #study #studying #study aesthetic #study inspo #student

I’m trying soooo hard not to rant to my friends about unfortunately common writing conceptions but I remember that I was once studying to become a literal editor, so I feel justified for a second, and then I’m back to staying my hand because this soap box feels like a face reveal! The face of pretension!!!! Lmao!!!

#I know I’m thinking myself in circles!!!!#aksjsksj #I hadn’t thought of editing (writing) as a career until my creative writing teacher came up to me after class #and was like hey… kid…. you wanna do what you were doing all class for your classmates while making a living??#and I was like 👀?#anyway that likely won’t happen now and I’m much happier with my current studies #but studying it or not it’s because I CANNOT TURN OFF WHEN I READ #I AM UNABLE TO!!!!#it’s about the rhythm of sentences!! pacing!!!#EMOTIONAL pacing too!!!#the tonal difference between minute changes in syntax!!!!#I’m so passionate about it and opinionated wjdjekd #I both want to go on a rant about it and hide lmaooo #anyway #writing #creative writing #ren rambles #ren rants #ren keeps hovering her foot over the soap box and doing a walk away and then a spin back to the box and then back again and

[ID: A drawing/fake polaroid photo of Teru from the Mob Psycho fanfic A Picture's Worth, holding up a peace sign and grinning in a selfie shot. He is wearing a gray sweatshirt with an unidentified logo on it and a gray beanie to hide his bald head, and his eyes are baggy. Behind him, boxes can be seen around the room, as well as various cleaning supplies and crumpled tissues. The image has a yellow to muted purple palette. At the bottom, the polaroid is captioned, "It isn't pretty, but that's ok." // "??/09/'12". End ID.]

It has been a while since I've written any fic, but I'm happy to say I'm actually writing again

#can't go near my desk until four o'clock so what else am I supposed to do but write and do pencil studies #currently on holiday and this was not the plan #but at least I've still got it #somewhat #I'll need to work on the rhythm a little once I edit #more rambles

Dallas, March 4, 1975

If you've ever wondered what "taking the piss" meant, look no further.

"John Paul Jones played mellotron. A very cheap form of orchestration. And he doesn't cost that much to rent, either ... This is a track that features John Paul Jones exercising the fingers and looking rather groovy, as well. He's a croupier in Vegas on his days off ... But now, for some precision. Now for one of the finest, finest musical sights that you're likely to experience within the next fifteen minutes. And that is, ladies and gentlemen, our percussionist, the man with only two cavities, John Bonham. 'Moby Dick!'"

I could go on and on (and on - Roberto sure does). Have a listen to the boot. It's a fun show, and he’s in fine form. The second Dallas gig is even better.

FLOATING SCULPTURES..

- Floating sculptures are artworks that defy gravity and create a sense of wonder

- They can be made of various materials, such as balloons, metal, wood, or plastic

- They can be displayed indoors or outdoors, depending on the size and weight of the sculpture

- They can be interactive, allowing the viewers to touch, move, or manipulate them

- They can be inspired by different themes, such as nature, fantasy, or science fiction.

This Residential Project turned out to be a huge change in the environment and ecology.
