How to give a great start to a new semester? - 3 tips

New semester have began for many of the AeSI students. It's the time
when classes start and we all fall in the grove of going to classes
and tutions. Life falls into a routine and it's becomes easy to miss
out the right way to begin a new semester.

So here I will present you three ways (although all are related) to
begin the new semester that lays a strong foundation.

1. Cut out your study hours.
This is the start of the semester. Don't put too much time pressure on
yourself. It's the time when you have the leisure of time. So utilize
it on other things than taking notes more than needed, and studying
more than required!

Do the minimal study, read ahead what will be taught in the class and
the tution and be attentive in classes. Apart from that don't study.

2. Reflect.
Instead spend time reflecting on the things you are learning than
mugging up formulaes and data for the exams! Reflect on whatever is
taught in the class, imagine the concepts introduced, discuss or
connect what you learnt today with what you already know.

This is the time when you want to build the foundation of your study,
so shun making notes, mugging, and solving hundreds of numericals.
This will come latter in the semester, right now lay a strong
foundation with the concepts.

3. Use pen paper and drawing.
Use pen and paper. Draw, imagine and relate the stuff you are
learning. Take imaginary classes of the stuff you are learning. Teach
what you have understood, question what you haven't!

This is how the begining of you new study should commence.

As always, I am curious what do you think about this? Are you
following a nobel way? Do comment.
