I have started to find time to study in silence because I want to work at succeeding in my goal of getting good grades in my classes. Finding time to study in a quiet environment ensures that I’m giving my all to my classwork. Another new study habit I’ve adapted is to read over the material I’m already familiar with and put more time into learning the material I struggle to learn. My favorite suggestion and new study habit from the article was to use the “Velcro theory”. The Velcro theory is when you “hook” what you’re learning to something you already know. Allowing myself to hook what I’m learning to things I already know, let’s me learn it in my own way and will eventually make connections to other things I’ll learn. Overall, the article provided was a good read and gave me new ideas and insights to making my study habits
