    Effective tips to study


    Well, dear friend you don't have to worry about ... you're not alone. I have many things done on how to study effectively... here comes the top or the best I've ever realized tips to effective study.

    1. Study in short, frequent sessions.
    It has been proven that short bursts of concentration repeated frequently are much more effective that one long session. So, even if you only have 10 minutes, DO IT! Take a break. Then study another 10 mintues. This "distributed learning" approach is highly efficient because it honors the way the brain likes to work. The brain needs recovery and recharging time for "protein synthesis." The rest periods are when your brain assimilates your effort. They are a powerful tool which many teachers do not acknowledge. To sit and study for hours and hours is not only boring, it creates fatigue stress, and distraction. You cannot learn if your are fatigued, stressed and distracted!

    2. Take Guilt-Free Days of Rest
    This follows the same principle as above, but on a longer, daily time cycle. The reason for resting is to refresh oneself. However, if you feel guilty (" I really should be studying") then your precious rest period has been used to create more stress. The brain will not absorb new data if it is stressed. On days off from studying, really enjoy yourself and do not feel bad about not studying.

    3. Honor your Emotional Feelings
    Do not study if you are tired, angry, distracted, or in a hurry. When the brain is relaxed, it is like a sponge and it naturally absorbs data without effort. If you are emotionally stressed, your brain literally repels data. Forcing yourself to sit and study when your mind is on other things is a complete waste of time.

    4. Review the Same Day
    When you learn something new, try to go over the points the same day. If you wait a few days and then make efforts to review the material, it will seem much less familiar. However, quick review later in the day will tend to cement the information into your brain so that the next "official" study session, you will recognize it and it will seem easy.

    5. Observe the Natural Learning Sequence
    Think of the activities you did when you were in nursery school. Using your whole arm, you probably performed the song that goes: "Put your right hand in, Put your right hand out." Then, in kindergarten, using your hand, you might have been asked to draw lines or circles with crayons. Later, in first grade now holding the pencil with your fingers, you drew smaller lines and circles to create letters. Believe it or not, this natural learning sequence, moving from large to small, coarse to fine, still remains effective even though we are now older. When you study, if you try first to grasp the big picture and then fill in the details, you often have a more likely chance of success.

    6. Use exaggeration
    Why does a baseball batter warm up by swinging two or three bats? Why do runners sometimes strap lead weights to their legs? In both cases exaggeration during practice makes the final result seem easy. This concept can be applied to studying anything. For example, if you are studying spelling, exaggerate the sound of the letters to help to remember them. So for studying purposes, "naive" would be pronounced "NAY-IVY." By getting used ti this exaggerated pronunciation, the correct spelling seems obvious. 

    7. Prepare Your Study Environment
    If you require certain elements in your, environment to help you study, try to always make these a priority. For example, do you need special lighting, silence, music, privacy, available snacks, etc.? Pay attention to what works for you and repeat it each time you study for best success. 

    8. Respect "Brain Fade"
    It is normal for the brain to have an attribution rate and to forget things. This does not mean that you are stupid! Instead of getting mad about this fact, you should expect it and deal with it accordingly. See your brain as depositing layers of knowledge. As you place more information on top, the lower levels become older and less available to your immediate recall. The trick here is simply to review. Since we can anticipate the eventual fading of our memory, creating a review aspect to our study session will solve the problem. Once every two or three study sessions, simple review older material that you will be still needing to remember. Often, a quick overview is sufficient. Sometimes, a complete detailed study session of the older material is required. "Brain fade" is completely normal. (Unless you are gifted with a photographic memory, which is extremely rare.)

    9. Create a Study Routine
    Generally, if you schedule certain times of the day to study, you will get into a routine and accomplish more. If you just "fit in" during your day, chances are that there will be any time. An effective way to do this is to literally mark it down in your datebook calendar as if you have an appointment, like going to the doctor. For example: "Tuesday 3-4:30 P.M. -Study."

    10. Set Reasonable Goals
    One of the main reasons people do not reach their goals is because they set them too high. If you set goals that are manageable, even if they seem too simple, you get in the habit of accomplishing them and gradually you can set higher goals. Also, recognize the difference between long- term and short- term goals. Set your vision on the long- term dream, but your day-to-day activity should be focused exclusively on the short-term, enabling steps.

    11. Avoid the Frustration Enemy
    Ironically, the quicker the person's nervous system, the faster they learn. Yet, this fast nervous system also works overtime in being self- critical. So they are the ones who always think they aren't going fast enough! In contrast, the type "B" less intense person who learns slower yet is more self- accepting, ends up ultimately learning the material in a shorter period of time. This is because he/ she doesn't waste energy blocking, getting upset, and thinking that they're not good enough- they simply keep moving forward at a slower (but un-blocked) space.

    Effective Slide Presentation


    An approach to effective presentation are the following:

    1. Preparation. These includes planning for your presentation, knowing the audience, speaking comfortably and clearly, talk to your audience and enjoy your presentation.

    2. Effective slides. Only necessary information must be contain on the slide most preferably key words. Also avoid mega words that seem you are reading a story. It is effective to have seven words a line and seven lines a slide.

    3. Graphics. Prevent information graphically. Graphics need to be big and bold. Do more than two graphics each slide. Also, if there is a need to have an analysis then do with graphs, diagram and tables to show relationship, comparison and changes. Different graphs serve different purposes. Hence, diagrams are used to demonstrate.

    4. Colors. Limit used of color. Use color that contrast. Dark background with light text is the best.

    5. Font Basics
    Font size should range between 18-48 and use system fonts.

    6. Type Basics
    All capital are hard to read so use uppercase for the first letter and avoid abbreviation.

    7. Templates
    Use template for your slides. Standard position, colors and slides with logo in the bottom right corner.

    Smoking effects on the Human Body


    The following are the effects of smoking in the human body:

    1. Toxic ingredients in cigarette smoke travel throughout the body, causing damage in several different ways.

    2. Nicotine reaches the brain within 10 seconds after smoke is inhaled. It has been found in every part of the body and in breast milk.

    3. Carbon monoxide binds to hemoglobin in red blood cells, preventing affected cells from carrying a full load of oxygen.

    4. Cancer- causing agents (carcinogens) in tobacco smoke damage important genes that control the growth of cells, causing them to grow abnormally or to reproduce too rapidly.

    5. The carcinogen benzo(a) pyrene binds to cells in the airways and major organs of smokers.

    6. Smoking affects the function of the immune system and may increase the risk for respiratory and other infections.

    7. There are several likely ways that cigarette smoke does its damage.One is oxidative stress that mutates DNA, promotes athersclerosis, and keads to chronic ling injury. Oxidative stress is thought to be the general mecahnism behind the aging process, contributing to the development of cancer, cardiovascular disease, and COPD.

    8. The body produces antioxidants to help repair damaged cells. Smkers have lower levels of antioxidants in their blood  than do nonsmokers. 

    9. Smoking is associated with higher levels of chronic inflammation, another damaging process that may result in oxidative stress.
