Science Courses are DifferentThis may be the first science course of your
college careerScience courses may require more study time
than non-science coursesYou must think and reason about the
concepts in a science courseYou should expect to spend at least 2 hours
studying for each credit hour of class per week

Your Listening StyleDetermine your listening styleIf you have a more passive listening style,
consider ways you can become a more active listenerListen for key ideasPay particular attention to the points raised by
instructors at the end of classAsk questions

2. Reduce (after class)•Note key words, phrases•Link objectives•Write out questions of your own•Link information from the text or other sources
1. Record notes here• Identify the main points• Capture the main ideas
Use outlines or concept mapsUse words and pictures to get
the information down quicklyAvoid quoting

ReadingDetermine your reading styleHolistic reading styles are noncriticalAnalytic reading styles are very detailed and
criticalHow do you think your reading style affects
the way you learn material?Is your reading style related to the kinds of
subjects you prefer?

ReadingYou must read the material before class (look
at your schedule)Choose a moderate amount of material
before you beginIf there is a summary at the end of the
chapter, read itRead first for what you do understand (mark
what you don’t to review later)Practice the “look away” methodLook up wordsRead to the end

ReadingOrganize your notes by connecting ideas
(outline or concept map)Re-read the section with the framework you
have chosenIf the reading is still a challenge, seek help!

How to Study for Science ClassesStudying is an ACTIVE process (Study by doing,
not just reading and highlighting)study by making lists of new terms and write them
5 to 10 times each to reinforce their spellingstudy by making flash cards with picturesstudy by drawing diagrams of complex activitiesstudy by telling a story out loud to "teach" the
informationstudy by writing out information from notes, from
memory

Before LabPrepare before each lab class to get the most
out of your lab timeRead material as it pertains to lab (handouts,
text, atlas)Place bookmarks or colored tabs on the assigned
images in the text or atlas so you can find them easily
Bring your textbook and your atlas (if required) to lab every week
Check Angel for handouts you may need to bring to lab
![Page 18: In Science Courses. Science Courses are Different This may be the first science course of your college career Science courses may require more study time](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56649e165503460f94b0043c/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
During LabYou need to actually handle the models and bonesYou need to actually look at the histology – you
should even draw pictures of the histologyObserve structures carefully, particularly noting
where they are in relationship with other structures
Use the entire name of a structure. Repeat it aloud. What does the name mean?
Stay focused on the work in labWork cooperatively – do not spend time chit-
chatting, but you may want to find a lab partner to study with
LEAVING LAB EARLY IS HAZARDOUS TO YOUR GRADE

After LabReview newest material first and mostReview older material regularlyPlan to use “open lab” times when provided
Review previously used modelsReview previously used histology slides

have exams!Choose a seat that will promote good note-takingAccept the instructor, despite his or her limitationsLet your instructor know as soon as possible if you
will have problems attending class or meeting deadlines. Before the fact is always better than after.

again)
