Re: Not Coping

hey @Shaz51 @Birdofparadise8 @Glisten @creative_writer 

 

How is everyone today?
I spent several hours with my mum at the hospital for a routine appointment, all good and the air conditioning was a welcome respite.

Thankfully it is going to be cooler tomorrow...yaaay!

 

Hope everyone is doing okay, @Birdofparadise8 are you still singing songs from the concert?

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 hmm... perhaps identifying the biggest areas you struggle - like if it's recall (a big one for me), looking up diferent ways to study that might help with that. The same friend I mentioned earlier has stuff like anatomical diagrams hanging up in the bathroom, for instance. Colour coding notes, making flash cards to quiz yourself, creating mnemonic devices to help you remember, all things that can help! 

Re: Not Coping

Yeah, I'll have to look into it to see how I study best. I think people can have different ways of learning. I'll google a quiz to see if that can give me some insight. @Jynx 

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 lol, I just sent a message about that! I took my mum to an appointment at the hospital so we kept cool for a few hours. It's only going to be 32 tomorrow I believe. Finally!

Re: Not Coping

Sent a message about your mum @ENKELI

Have you had covid before? I feel like crap. 

Re: Not Coping

I did a quiz and it said auditory learning. That makes sense. I feel I can learn more from a 10-minute YouTube video than looking at a PowerPoint. @Jynx

Re: Not Coping

Ooh cool @Birdofparadise8!! Hmm in that case, you could re-listen to lecture recordings, look up youtube explanations of anything you're struggling with, or even record yourself reading your notes out and listening back to it (although if you're like me, you might dislike the sound of your own voice lol - you could always ask someone to read it out for you!).
