Day 15/100 days of Productivity

22nd April, 2024

Academia

Before 22nd April

I read through the notes of Kinematics 1D.

Watched a beautiful video on steric hindrance. Explained in Hindi. (Steric hindrance is when two groups repel each other in an organic compound. It increases with increase in alkyl groups and size.)

Read through lecture slides of Solids. And made short notes.

Watching a video on hydrocarbons.

On 22nd April

Revised Basic Maths.

Doing lecture 1 slides of Vectors.

Watched this video on Glycolysis.

Watched this animation on menstrual cycle.

Also watched and made notes of a few minutes of Atomic Structure.

Also watched NCERT line by line of Principle of Inheritance. Didn't finish it though.

Non Academia

I watched this video on Bridgerton specially Polin storyline. Though I've already read the book but it has been around 8 months since, so this was fun. The book actually portrays Penelope and Colin in a better light than the series. And I'm gonna be very honest, one of the best characters is Penelope. I also like Colin but there were instances I didn't.

Watched my favourite kind of video-On Pride and Prejudice. Was Mr. Darcy a lord? A fascinating conversation. I'm waiting for the time when I'm spending all my days reading and learning and talking about Jane Austen. Which is gonna be in 12 days.

5/20 days of April breaking the cycle

I had terrible back/shoulder pain at the end of the day, so I had to lie down. Now I did study for about 40 minutes while lying down but I finally started reading a romance novel. And yes, I finished it. It wasn't long though, it was just 230 pages. But CAN YOU BELIEVE IT? my exam has barely 10 days left and I'm reading a romance novel. And finishing it. I wish I had the same dedication for my studies as I have for watching and reading romcoms.

-Tanishka.

The Blurting Method

What is the Blurting Method?

It is a revision techinique that consists of:

Write notes about the topic and read them until you undestand it and remember some of it

Write everything you remember about the topic (without using the notes)

Go back to your notes and with a different colour add what you missed and correct your mistakes

Repeat the process until you know it

Remember to take breaks!

Pros

This method uses active recall, which makes your memory work harder and helps you store information in your long-term memory

It is incredibly effective

Cons

It is a really intense study method and it takes a lot of time (remember to take breaks!)

Subjects we recommend for this method

All subjects that are more theorical than practical.

flashcards

flashcards are a study tool that aids in memorization. they typically consist of a card bearing information on both sides, with a question or definition on one side and the answer or term on the other. flashcards can be used for various subjects, such as vocabulary, historical dates or formulae, and are effective because they involve active learning through self-testing and spaced repetition. they can be created physically with paper and pen or digitally using software.

here are some tips to create flashcards that are effective and engaging:

phrase your flashcards as questions: instead of simply writing a term or concept, phrase it as a question. this encourages active recall, which is more effective for memory retention.

use the specification: refer to your exam boards specification or past exam papers to ensure your flashcards cover the necessary material and help with exam technique.

one idea, one flashcard: keep your flashcards simple. each should contain one question and one answer. this makes it easier for your brain to process and remember the information.

engaging questions: write questions that are interesting and thought-provoking. avoid one-word answers; instead, aim for answers that make you think about the topic in depth.

regular review: use your flashcards regularly and shuff them often to avoid simply memorizing the order. spaced repetition is the key to long-term retention.

personally, i don't enjoy using flashcards so i'd like to add that everyone is very different and we all learn and enjoy various things. what works for someone online may not work for you. you just have to try and find out.

i hope you find the post helpful.

Ways to actually start studying after procrastinating

Don't multi-task: Multitasking does not come in the form of making notes and watching Netflix, it can come in the form of switching between two or three subjects too many times then it is like washing a plate and watching a show. It barely makes any sense to me.

Batching: Batching is where you take your to-do list and batch similar tasks into groups and take a break in between these batches.

Do Not Use Pomodoro Technique: Don't use the Pomodoro Technique because you have fixed tasks (tasks that require a particular amount of time) and flexible tasks (tasks that might take up more time than fixed tasks).

Flashcards: These things are the gamer-changers. Flashcards can be used in subjects which have a lot of terms that you need to remember, such as biology, chemistry,etc.

Don't feel bad about modifying your to-do list: If you have your math homework and an exam due next week, and you don't feel like doing math then you could study for your exam. Its okay to modify your tasks according to your mood.

Bonus tip: If you have to revise a chapter, get a few blank pages and put it beside your textbook/notes. While reading your notes, write down points that you can't remember or think is important that you wanna recap later on. If you compile those papers up that could be your go-to revision booklet before your exams.

Study break ideas, because burnout sucks

Taking breaks is, arguably, the most important thing a person can do when studying. Nearly every piece of advice on the internet regarding studying talks about how important breaks are, but few give example of what a productive, useful break can look like.

Things that make a good break:

things that reset your mind, things that allow you to rest, things that need to get done but don't use too much brain power, etc. If your brain is working during your break, it is not going to be as useful as a break where you can just move through things without a thought.

Things that make a bad break:

Anything that uses your brain. While it may not feel like it, reading your favorite book as a break isn't great because you are processing and using that noggin. Being on your phone is extra terrible because you get the double dose of 1) using your brain and 2) instant gratification, which can throw off any motivation you had to study.

Now here are some actual examples of things to do on your break:

~ make yourself a snack

~ do your hair

~ wash your face/brush teeth/take a shower

~ go on a quick run (most people can run a mile in less than 15 min)

~ take a power nap (can be dangerous- make sure you have an alarm set + you don't get more tired after taking a nap)

~ clean your room

~ clean out your fridge

~ do a stretching routine

~ make your bed

anything that is purely physical will work well- get your body doing something other than sitting at a desk and your brain and body both will thank you

How to do group projects? (If you're selected as the leader of the group)

I hate group projects, it's not necessarily the project rather, the people are not cooperative enough so here's some tips I use when I was chosen to do a PPT and a damn play with 13 members.

(Pictures aren't mine!)

Take phone numbers

Even though my teacher discouraged the idea of it, I still took the numbers of all the members and saved it on the same day the project was given even though the deadline was a month later. You should make sure that you have the necessary means of communication to every member.

Plan and outline within 3 days!

Make an outline of what needs to be done, plan out who's going to do what, how they'll do it, when will they complete it etc etc. The reason i do it within 3 days is because you'll get the base of how you'll do it because generally in group projects, by the time everyone completes the work and gives it to you, it would take atleast a week or two, if you start early, you'll complete earlier than everyone else

No group chats!

I personally don't prefer this because one i realised everyone just didn't reply expecting others to reply, especially when your group is big! So... Dms!! Just send the instructions personally, yes, it takes alot of time but it makes up for the energy wasted in group chats that involve unnecessary talks and questions.

Both face to face and text reminders!

When you've assigned work to every member, make sure they actually do it because you'll be the one responsible. Not gonna lie but reminders help especially when the deadlines are closer. Just a message like "Hey, friendly reminder about the XYZ project."

Save your own name!

This is something I'm really careful about. The accusation that you're being biased and assigning easier work to friends and people I'm close with. So, i figured that the best way to avoid it is to write all the work and the names of members in alphabetical order and assign accordingly. If the member can't do it, then I'll discuss and swap. It saves a hell lot of drama and actually results to better outcomes.

Back up

Make sure that there's always a second in command. This was a mistake I did, on the day of the 2nd project (the play), I was in one of the competitions and our teacher had started with our group first... I didn't exactly tell anyone that everything about the characters assigned to members and the narrations were in my bag so they had to scramble alittle but in the end, our group did the best play despite the situation so that's what you're aiming at. Your group needs to manage without you.

Flexibility

Do not, under any circumstances, expect everything to go well! You need to expect hindrances, like gurl, come on. A mistake I made in the PPT project, i made the PPT and told 4-5 people to explain it because that's how it was supposed to be done but in the end, ALL THE 4-5 PEOPLE HAD TO BE IN SPORTS PRACTICE so we ended up changing plans last minute. But nevertheless, we got an A-. Tell everyone to prepare accordingly.

Be a little lenient

Personally, when the teacher asked me to give the list of work everyone had done, i did'nt just write nothing for the members who didn't, i have even the smallest contribution because in the end, even one person's scores matters. It affects the whole damn group so be careful when you take out anger and frustration on the members when giving the list of contributions or even while doing the project. The last thing you need is drama.

Contact!

Make sure your members are comfortable enough to clear any questions or misunderstandings with you. If you don't know what's going in the group, you can't maintain the group. Be very clear that they can reach you any time.

Demo!!!

This is really important! Decide on a day and keep a demonstration of how your project is going to be presented. Do exactly as how you're going to do it infront of the teacher. Exchange some points on how to do better during the demo and discuss! It helps you to correct your mistakes.

Hope this helps! :)

Study Tip #1

How to remember stuff for a long period of time?

Firstly, you should know that our brain is very adept at forgetting things it doesn't consider necessary for its survival and it fails to understand that excelling our exams are veryyyy important for our survival.

So, what you need is revision of your subject matter over and over again, over a period of time.

How to achieve that though?

Flashcards are often used for achieving this technique but to be honest, for a very vast syllabus Flashcards get quite overwhelming. So I created REVISION SHEETS for myself. It's the same thing as flashcards but it encompasses a few other techniques that makes the vastness of the topics a little easy to control and comprehend.

I make them two ways: one is completely random, with information important to remember but from various different topics. And another is by making mindmaps.

And in both of these things, I add information in QnA format. Easy.

Step by Step guide to revision sheets:

Firstly, I'd advise you to read/understand a chapter/topic through a lecture, a youtube video or a textbook. Atleast have a basic understanding of the concepts.

Check the major headings or the major sub-topics.

Start plotting the mindmap roughly, by Sub-topics and how and where you'll put them for better understanding.

Now, when you're writing content, put it all in QnA format, especially HOW you want you remember the information.

There, done.

Just make sure to use that sheet to revision at good intervals of time.

You can, of course, make changes to this process. But this is what I've done for my revision work.

[Also, I am not sure if someone else might not have already thought of this idea. Though, I don't think such study tips have any copyright but I'm just putting out there that if it resembles something that others have used/talk about online, then it's because we both thought of the same thing. And you'll too probably to solve your study problems. So all the best, let's all work hard and find our happiness.]
