3 things to do if you want a study group that really works
If you want to up your academic game and you need a study group, you've got to look out for these in the group before joining.
Study group involves a group of students who are taking the same course to work together to increase and improve their learning and understanding of the course.
However, having a study group is not enough, but being a study group that really works will help you to assimilate the course better and have a great impact on your academic pursuit.
To achieve this, these are three things you need to do to have an effective study group.
1. Pick your dream group
Because you need people who really want to study, the first thing you need to do is to assemble your dream team. These should be people who really cherish the idea of studying and share the same academic goals with you.
2. Pick a fixed place and time
Having a specific time and location are important to any study group. Once you find a day and time that works for everyone, all the group members just have to stick to it religiously.
3. Prepare beforehand
There is a reason why it is called a study group and every member of the group has to participate in the learning session to justify the purpose of the group.
To do this, all members have to prepare for the study session, and you also have to make sure your group members know what is expected of everyone to prepare for each week. This makes the study group more interactive and attractive.
Finally, the real key to a successful study group is a mix of work and play. You guys really need to have fun, your study group should not be all about books and books, rather it should be a place you come to have a pleasant time and at the same time gain new knowledge.
