Description
Students around the world are not being taught how to learn!There is a missing piece in the education system! Students are underachieving and don't know why. Without the fundamental skills of knowing how to learn, all other subjects, topics and teaching is essentially useless! It is like trying to carry water in a bucket full of holes - only the tiniest percentage of the original content remains at the end of the day. So, do you want to learn how to learn 63% more than you are currently? Of course you do! This course is all about fixing the missing piece in your learning strategy, looking at what the highest-performing students do AND what the research suggests and putting this into a simple, effective system that is guaranteed to improve your results at school. So, what will you learn?Firstly, we'll learn how the brain actually works! It is an unbelievably powerful machine that can help or hinder your learning, depending on how you use it. Then we'll cover some key principles for success at school. You need to be motivated to achieve. Do you want to make your parents proud, prove an old teacher wrong and achieve a specific score for tertiary education? What's your 'why?' Knowing or finding this will make everything else work better. Then you'll learn about the 3 phases of success at school:1. In class2. At home3. Assessment time!You'll learn the C.R.A.M strategy. No, not the one that you are probably doing already. C.R.A.M is the opposite. It is a strategic, simple and methodical approach to hacking the brain and learning consistently over time. Not only will C.R.A.M help you when you are in class and revising at home, but it also applies to smashing assessments! It is all about working smarter AND harder. There is absolutely no point reading notes for hours and hours on end, you need time to play sport, catch up with friends and have fun!C.R.A.M is all about efficiency. The maximum learning for minimal effort. Yes, you'll still have to work harder. But you'll be getting a bigger reward for your efforts. We've researched the most effective learning methods around the world, including spaced repetition, active recall and physical activity. Each of these produces incredible results when applied intentionally. Together, they are unstoppable!Not only that, one strategy will help you remember 46% more than what you are probably doing now. Another might even help you remember 95%!So what are you waiting for? Learn how to learn today. Start achieving the results that you want and deserve and stop underachieving!
