2. Learning on Lock Study Sessions
Learning on Lock Study Sessions (30-50 minutes sessions)
1. Read the material again, but this time, read for understanding and not familiarity. Read in 15-25 minute periods. Look for answers to the questions you
noted earlier. Study the graphs, charts and other visual aids and understand how they relate to or support the main points of the material
2. After each period of studying, take 5-10 minutes and reflect on the material. What are the main points? How does this relate to what you have learned
from earlier classes and courses? What does the instructor view as important from the information and why?
3. Go back through the information and take notes (10-15 minutes). Note the main points, the important concepts and the visual aids that may help to
explain them. You can highlight, underline, or even better write and organize your notes in your own words on paper or on your computer in ways that
are comfortable and allow you go easily find and engage your notes later.
4. Rinse and Repeat do this several times
a. Once immediately after class (within 24 hours)
