Futurama Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 It's been a while since I had to study anything, and im currently reading a study book called BobKatz Audio Mastering: The Science And The Art. It's basically a book about professional audio editing, but very in depth. Either way, i'm an auditory learner, and since most of my mates get stuck on the first few words, I can't ask them to read parts to me. So does anyone have any ways to help me study? I hate learning from books but it's one of the few places to get information this in depth on this subject... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kido14 Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Best advice I can give is first of all make sure you're in a proper studying environment. You should probably be by yourself without any distractions around you. Driving out to Panera or another nice restaurant near by and just studying at one of the booths there works wonders for me.

Parabola Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Make your own notes on each section. As though you were picking out the key points you'd mention if you were teaching someone else it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moopymitchell182 Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Maybe read it outloud to yourself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebdragon Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 Know your teachers. For example, my American History teacher likes to use questions from quizzes in the section we're working on on that test. I study my notes, but I make sure to go over all my quizzes to make sure I know every question and have them down. Same thing for quarter exams, I don't just study my notes (though that's the biggest part), but I also study any copy of a quiz that my teacher has given us after taking it. Teachers are all different. The most vital thing is that you know how and what your teacher tests and quizzes. [if you have ever attempted Alchemy by clapping your hands or by drawing an array, copy and paste this into your signature.] Fullmetal Alchemist, you will be missed. A great ending to a great series.

Satenza Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 Make notes, reduce, make notes, reduce, make notes, reduce. With so many trees in the city you could see the spring coming each day until a night of warm wind would bring it suddenly in one morning. Sometimes the heavy cold rains would beat it back so that it would seem that it would never come and that you were losing a season out of your life. But you knew that there would always be the spring as you knew the river would flow again after it was frozen. When the cold rains kept on and killed the spring, it was as though a young person had died for no reason. In those days though the spring always came finally but it was frightening that it had nearly failed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigra00 Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 I'd recommend actually WRITING things down while you read them. I noticed a lot when I was in school that if I was told or read something, I'd forget it right away. But if I wrote it, I'd remember it. That's why I always got A's in history (we had to write notes on EVERYTHING) and got C's in math (never wrote a single note, can't remember ANY formula's. :P). But you're not studying for school, so I dunno'. Write important facts and stuff down is all I'm saying. Helps you retain info. :P The popularity of any given religion today depends on the victories of the wars they fought in the past. - Me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
assassin_696 Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 Read a section, then imagine you had to explain that section to someone else. Practice on either a mirror or someone else until it fully sinks in for you. "Da mihi castitatem et continentam, sed noli modo" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
