The power of study groups
Part 3
Guidelines for getting a group
together
Here are some guidelines for creating
and running a study group; how many? Create a group of four to six people. In a
larger group, it’s easy for someone to get left out and smaller groups can too
easily get off track.
Who? Pick classmates who seem to
share their interest in doing well academic. Look for people who stay alert in
class, take notes, ask questions, and respond to the teachers questions. Include
someone who understands the material better than you and can explain the
concepts and someone who doesn’t understand it as well, to whom you can explain
the material.
Where? Hold study group sessions in a
place that is free of distractions and that has a room to spread out books and
notes. How long? Meet for no more than two to three hours a time. Having time
limit helps the group focus. If you know you only have an hour, you’re more
likely to stay on task.
Choose the right!!!
