Review is to learn what you have learned by yourself.
There are many kinds of review, such as timely review after class, "see you every day" review, weekly review, monthly review, mid-term review, stage review and general review. Broadly speaking, it's all after-school review.
The role of review must not be ignored. As the saying goes, "A fist never leaves his hand, and a song never leaves his mouth." Nine out of ten students who are not good at reviewing can't learn well. Review is an essential link to master knowledge and improve the level.
Of course, reviewing is not simply reading textbooks or notes. There are certain requirements. This chapter focuses on the procedures and methods of after-class review.
Procedures and methods of after-class review
The meaning of after-class review is called "review on the same day of the course" in a popular saying.
We often encounter this situation. When asked what a student should do after class, he will look at you in surprise and answer, "Do your homework!" " "If a student is criticized for not taking time to review after class, he will confidently answer," I have finished my homework! ""It seems that quite a few middle school students regard doing homework as the only learning task after class. Obviously, this understanding is one-sided. According to the normal study procedure, we should review the new lessons of the day before doing our homework.
Review on the day of the course. What the teacher just said is impressive and clear at a glance. Psychologists believe that what you have just learned is the easiest to forget in two or three days, and it is best to review it within 24 hours after learning. If it takes too long, you have forgotten a lot of the courses you have taken, then you will get twice the result with half the effort. An educator put it well: we should consolidate knowledge, not repair what has collapsed. In other words: strike while the iron is hot and review in time. Middle school students should form the habit of not being disturbed no matter what happens.
The correct review method should follow the following procedures: first, "watching movies", second, reading textbooks, third, taking notes, fourth, doing homework, and fifth, reading reference books.
(1) "Go to the movies"
I force myself to recall the contents of the teacher's lecture when I watch a movie. I don't read textbooks or notes. Neither speak loudly nor write words; Let the whole process of the teacher's lecture reappear in his mind. By "watching movies", you can check the effect of your lectures. For example, you can recall most of the contents, indicating that preview and lecture are effective; If you can't recall a lot of content, you should check the preview and lecture in time, find out the reasons for the poor effect and correct it as soon as possible.
Through "watching movies", you can find the weak link of your knowledge. Usually what you can recall is basically what you already know. What I can't recall is what I didn't understand or master, so I try to add it in the next two review procedures.
"Watching movies" can improve memory ability, and the memory effect of closing your eyes once is even greater than that of reading a book with your eyes open for ten times. Because the process of memory is also the process of thinking, and every reappearance is the enhancement of memory.
This is the reason why "watching movies" is put in the first step of the audit process.
(2) Reading textbooks
Textbooks, the basis of a class, must be read, but not skimmed. Since there are three stages: preview, lecture and recall, reading should be comprehensive and interesting. This point includes not only the key points in the course content, but also the vague "missing" points that are not remembered when recalling. When reading, you can always write short suggestive and comprehensive words on the top and blank of the book, so that when you read this book again in the future, you can respond and understand the key contents of this page.
(3) All bets
We have already talked about the method before, and what needs to be emphasized here is that when recalling, we must sort it out in detail in our notes and mark it well, so that we can pay attention to reviewing this part when reviewing.
Do your homework.
Homework is originally to review and consolidate what you have learned, so doing homework is one of the review links. And it is an important part. As for how to do homework and how to solve problems, we will introduce them in the following chapters.
(5) Reading reference books
Reference books are books found outside textbooks around the central content of teachers' lectures, and reading is textbook-centered. Due to the limited time, reference books need not be read word for word from beginning to end, but should be read selectively. Seeing the same content as the teacher's explanation will be swept away; When you see the same problem from different angles, read and compare it carefully, and learn to solve the same problem in various ways from different angles. This is more conducive to deepening the understanding of knowledge in class. At first, you can ask the teacher to recommend reference books for you. The time, energy and quantity of reading reference books should be decided according to everyone's specific situation. Do this step when you have time, watch more when you have more time, and watch less when you have less time.
