Students should consider the following tips to develop or improve learning skills: Set aside a specific place and time for studying. Concentration is often a matter of routine and environment Make sure the study environment is equipped with the necessary supplies. Reduce external distractions by turning the telephone off, getting away from background noise and telling others to take time out from talking to them. Mast teens support having background music. However, music that distracts from concentration is counterproductive. Avoid daydreaming. Record distracting ideas that can be taken care of later. lake sides on issues they read about to help create interest in what they are studying. Find relationships between old interests and new information. Study small sections to help master specific ideas rather than trying to grasp large sections of material in a short time. Tike planned, short breaks as a reward for accomplishing a learning goal. Concentrate on the most difficult material when they are the freshest. Eat appropriately and sleep enough so study time is focused and used profitably. Study with others when possible in small, focused groups. Pay attention to the factors that make study efforts productive. Ask others to identify study alternatives. In time, people learn what approach works best for them. Apply appropriate methods to memorize. There are two general ways-b- y rote or mechanically TURN IN A PUSHER j tion tables and telephone numbers are learned by rote. Ideas, concepts and theories are learned by understanding. Never be satisfied with a hazy idea ofwhatisbeing read. If people are not able to follow the thought, they review the reading. Relate new ideas to current knowledge. Survey the reading material. When studying, break the material into parts, but keep the whole in mind. Experiments indicate that a quick survey of material headings and summaries before reading gives an orientation that increases retention.

Reciting can take place while reading sections and personally rewordingihe information. Read difficult passages aloud. Make illustrations of the studied material. Personal Examples are easier to remember at exam time. Flash cards are useful when studying languages. Outline d chapter or lecture and fill in keywords, concepts or write in examples. When writing down the material, students will know whether they have learned the information. Review information immediately. The best review time is soon after learning has taken place. The beginning and the end of material being studied is the best remembered so people should pay dose attention to the middle. Review the material to refresh memories before going to bed unless physically or mentally overtired. Freshly learned information is better remembered after a period of sleep than after an equal period of daytime activity. to Improve Substance Abuse ' Teatment The plan recommends a variety of actions to help the Nation meet the challenges presented by addiction.
