Study Skills
http://www.ltscotland.org.uk/studyskills/index.asp Study Skills Learn how to become an effective learner and how to manage your own learning. Learning and Teaching Scotland has commissioned this collection of learning materials to help learners to develop the study skills and information literacy they need in order to become independent learners and to develop their full potential as individuals, citizens and workers in the 21st century. The activities in this learning series are grouped around the four main stages for effective studying and the successful processing of information. The four headings - Get, Understand, Remember and Do - follow the logical steps which people take when they are finding out about something, making sense of it, then telling someone else about it or doing something with it. There are separate sets of notes for teachers, parents/carers and students. |

Just like flashcards, you can review the information at your own pace discarding the cards you've learned and keeping the ones you still need to review. However, unlike traditional flash cards, each card can show multiple pieces of information; and the whole stack can be automatically sorted by any one of the pieces of information. |
