Learning Tips and Study Habits

Your best bet is to quiz one another. Use your notebook or old homework and quiz papers. One of you ask a question and the other tries to answer it. Then switch places so the other person gets to answer some.

Your question was, do boys and girls have different learning styles. The answer is yes and no. Learning styles are not based on gender. Learning styles are based on individuals. Each person has a continuum of ways to learn. Typically the easiest way to learn something is by guidance "doing" the task. The hardest way to learn is to listen to a lecture and then go home and try to do the required work. Any kind of interacting with people and the material in a way that makes sense and is relevant will improve a person's ability to learn. Relevance is critical. If a person wants to become a contractor then that person will have to master geometry. How we learn also depends on what we have to learn. For example, all of us should have tasks we can do without thinking--in a rote manner. If a child does not memorize simple math facts then completing algebra problems will be stunted because the individual will have to stop, count some fingers, and move on. This kind of interruption of thought processing is difficult to regain. We have to know the alphabet before we can alphabetize words and use a dictionary. Some tasks require 100% mastery. Developing thinking or reasoning skills is a different king of learning. It isn't related to rote memorization. It's best learned by seeing someone reason out a problem and practicing.

The best way to increase your texting speed is to practice. Use your notebook feature to practice "typing" on your cellphone until you can get faster.

You can use sign language because they don't have to hear it they can just read the signals and learn them.

• What you are going through is very normal. Young people during their teen years go through many hormonal changes that can sometimes cause them to have a foggy-headed feeling; frustration; moodiness; the beginning of getting to know who they are and what they are about so it is no wonder some teens can feel either frustrated; feel they are in a daze and sometimes a little depressed. Be patient and you will reach your goals. Study at home where it is quiet and do the best you can. If you are lagging in a certain subject at school then ask the teacher for help or another student with good grades to get you through this mental block. You sound like a very mature 15 year old so I have no doubt you will do well in the future.

Only you can answer a question about you -- just tell the teacher about how you are using reading strategies and how well they are working.

No, if chocolate is given to teachers they will not decrease the homework.

It really depends on the student - some people can handle more distractions than others. I think everyone should have at least one extracurricular activity, because it's an excellent chance to build skills and to socialize. Communication skills and teamwork are just as important as the facts you learn in class. The way to tell if you can handle the activities is to watch your grades. If you are doing too much after school and not enough in class, your grades will fall. If you are still making the same grades with the activities as you were before, then you are not putting too much stress on yourself. You need to have enough time to do your homework and keep up with your assignments, but other than that, you can do as many activities as your time permits!

Everybody would love to play all the time and not have to work. School is your job, and just like your parents have to go to a job every day, you have to do schoolwork even if it's not fun. Homework is not "bad" or harmful - it helps you learn the material and do better in school so you can get a better job and make more money once you are grown up.

Music and rhythm help you remember because humans love music. Rhythm also gives you a "beat" to hint at things like syllables and counting.

High school students are more mature than elementary kids, so they have more work and less structure. You're expected to be able to set a time and do the work by the deadlines, and you have more reports and papers to do.
