      Bad study habits to avoid

      1. Study without a plan. Set a goal for what to study and how much to study.
      \t2. Procrastinate. Plan when to do the work, as early as possible and in small parts.
      \t3. Spend a lot of time but achieve little. Find the productive period.
      \t4. Distracted by social media and phones. Turn them off.
      \t5. Study in front of TV. Study in a low traffic area away from distractions,. Not in bedroom.
      \t6. Burn midnight oil. Study beforehand and review over a longer period of time.
      \t7. Not asking for help. Review with your child periodically.
      \t8. Memorise not understand. Use a mindmap to get a better understanding.
      \t9. No schedule. Use a planner.
      \t10. Disorganised. Use folders and make effective notes.
      11 Forget the mistakes. Learn from the mistakes, don't give up.[/quote]
      Thanks a lot for sharing! I have noted your tips as HBL have been unproductive to my kid's study habits.

        Successful online learning
        \t1. Consistency. You need to be self motivated to log in to the online class yourself at the correct timing everyday.
        \t2. Time management. You have to schedule your classes if there is no fixed timing. You have to juggle the other daily tasks to do as well.
        \t3. Effective online communication. You are unable to seek help face to face. You can use email, chat, discussion group or messaging.
        \t4. Computer literacy. You need basic computer skills or attend some basic course or orientation program.
        \t5. Language competency. You need to read and write the study materials and class work. You should improve your typing speed.
        \t6. Free from distractions. You need a quiet place, away from computer games, mobile or computer notification, ergonomic chair, good lighting.[/quote]
        thank you for these tips.
        lately, i have started my review lately but seemed to lack motivation.
        Glad I found these tips!

          Learning at home

          I read newspapers during breakfast.

          I visit a few finance and news websites and forums for information.

          I take a few online courses.

          I attend a few webinars.

          I watch youtube videos.

          I try to read widely outside my area of expertise and interest so I can get a broader perspective and discover new stuff.

          I want to be open minded.

          You don't know what you don't know.

          Sometimes all you need is one good idea to change your life. Provided you act on the idea.

          Nowadays everything is online because of the covid19.

          You actually save time on travelling.

                Develop a schedule, it is important to create a schedule that includes study, meals, household chores and other activities.

                Give your kids the ability to make decisions, it’s no matter what order the kids take on assignments and homework.
                Create a suitable learning environment for children because every child has different learning and concentration abilities, and everyone will feel more comfortable in different environments.
                Arrange a closing meeting to be held with the children at the end of each school day. Discuss the questions they have, mark everything that has been done and rate it.

                    1 Create a space for him to do his HBL.

                    A table and chair that he can call his own.
                    In school we are often required to ‘mark’ the attendance of the students in the class.
                    and required to ‘see’ the student ‘live’
                    The HBL lessons can also be ‘interactive’ requiring them to response to our ‘live’ lessons.
                    Surely the child would not want the mother asking him to eat - in the middle of his ‘live’ lessons!

                      2 Give him SPACE to do his HBL

                      HBL follows the school time table or some specific time table.
                      There are tasks to be completed - and there are deadlines. (eg by submission by 5 pm)

                      Just because he is at home - it does not mean that you the parents have the freedom to ask him to do whatever or eat whenever. …

                      Give him space - personal space , personal time - to do his HBL and HBL work
