| What Is Study? |
| |
| Homework is not Study. Study is the process you put into action to retain concepts taught and learned for the long term memory. By studying what you are taught, you will be better able to recall, use and explain to others, thus achieve results that reflect your best ability. |
| |
| Study is doing a variety of things, actively engaging your mind in your work and doing these things often and in ways that help you remember and apply what you have been taught. Study is a routine that you organise and use for yourself to rise up to your very best effort. |
