關于如何在假期高效地進行復習，最近私立學校協會（Independent Schools Council）主席Barnaby Lenon在一篇文章中提到了一些行之有效的方法。

他說：“那些天賦異稟的孩子不一定就能考好GCSE和A Levels；成功往往屬于那些能在考前假期有效進行復習的孩子。”

而我們英倫求學中心也堅信，如果孩子能夠做好復習計劃，有效率地規劃安排時間，他們終究會收獲理想的成績。但是，在復習期間，特別是在忙碌疲憊后迎來的假期，如何讓你的復習事半功倍？

 

以下是英倫求學中心的英國教育專家本杰明·莫克森（Benjamin Moxon）為備考中的學生提供的專業建議。

 

 

這些事情一定要做：

 

 

一、提前安排好復習資料，以確保你是緊跟教學大綱以及考試委員會的要求進行復習的。請確保你在學習過程中所做的筆記是完整的。若在某一科目上有不足，可尋求朋友的幫助或者參考教學大綱，而且大部分的資料都可通過網絡進行查找。此外，你可嘗試把話題分割成幾個單元，并且把長筆記長文章盡量縮短以減少復習的繁雜與壓力。

 

二、進行及時地休息。短暫休息可以讓你的精力更加充沛，大量飲水以及恰當飲食能讓你注意力集中、頭腦清晰。勞逸結合至關重要：通過一頓營養均衡的早餐開始新的一天，在午時的小憩中放松大腦，通過午后的室外運動感受陽光的溫暖。

 

三、及時進行自測。可通過謄寫筆記的方式來確保你所復習的東西長期儲存在記憶中。亦可請家長或導師給你一些小測試進行自測，更好地發現潛在錯誤。

 

四、盡量每天復習多門科目，而不是一門。你可把每天的時間合理分配給兩到三門科目，過于專注一門科目可能會使你倍感疲倦。比如，早上復習數學，下午進行化學知識的復習。

 

五、盡早開始一天的復習。研究調查表明，多數學生的大腦在早晨最為活躍。所以，請盡量在合適的時間起床并且在上午九點之前開始你的復習。下午五點左右暫時結束你的復習，這樣你就可以得到充沛的休息，這些休息將幫助你的大腦充電，來更好地吸收所復習的知識。同時，充足的睡眠也是必不可少的，它可讓你在第二天醒來之后精力充沛，更好地復習。

 

六、可以與伙伴們一起復習。單獨復習不可或缺，但你如果有朋友住得比較近，可以選擇和他們一起組隊復習，互相測試所學的知識，查漏補缺。

 

 

有些事情請盡量避免：

 

 

一、別慌張。許多學生認為復習過程壓力滿滿，但實際上，你大可不必為復習焦頭爛額。參考一下本文所提及的建議，你就會發現自己不僅能很好地復習所學知識，還能學習到對自己備考有所幫助的新知識。

 

二、別當“學習狂人”。制定好你的復習計劃，并按照著計劃一步一個腳印地走，以確保自己能充分利用假期時間。適當地進行休息，并謹記按時吃飯。

 

三、別讓拖延癥毀了你。不要給自己找不復習的理由，也別一整天都在和朋友玩。請把你的手機，平板電腦等會使你分心的東西放在一邊。請切記，每天按時復習能讓你更好地掌握所復習的知識。

 

四、別在嘈雜的環境下學習。在家或當地的圖書館找一個適合自己安靜復習的小角落，坐在舒適的位置上，盡量不要被吵鬧的兄弟姐妹或者小寵物等打擾，這樣你的學習效率會更高。

 

五、別氣餒。你不是一個人在戰斗，你的同齡人和你站在同一戰線上。你可以跟你的朋友進行復習經驗的分享并保持樂觀。記住，一旦完成考試，你將會擁有大把的時間休息。

 

六、不同的學生有不同的復習方法。部分學生偏好在考試前進行“填鴨式學習”，而部分學生的復習則是有條不紊地進行著的，這樣他們就不會感覺壓力過大。所以，分析清楚自己的情況，合理規劃自己的復習安排，你就能在備考過程中處于不敗之地。

 

最后，讓你的復習計劃像學校課程一樣有序地進行吧！規劃好你的時間并學會自律。這樣，在你臨上大學之際，你在復習過程中所養成的良好學習習慣，將會讓你在未來學習過程中更上一層樓。

 

英倫求學中心預祝你考試成功！

GCSE & A Level Revision – The dos and don’ts

 

Barnaby Lenon, chairman of the Independent Schools Council, has recently published his advice on how to approach the all-important revision period over the Holidays.

 

He has said that “The best GCSE and A-level results don't go to the cleverest students — they go to those who revised in the holidays.”

Here at UK Study Centre, we also believe that if a student organises their time efficiently and plans their revision period well leading up to exams, hard-work will be paid off when their results come in. However, there are certain ‘dos’ and ‘don’ts’ to consider when revising, particularly when doing so intensively over the school holidays…

 

Do!

 

Do plan your revision materials ahead of time – Ensure you are revising from the correct syllabus and exam board. Make sure that any notes you have taken throughout the year are complete and in full. If you’ve missed any lessons or topics, ask a friend to share these with you or refer to the syllabus, most of which are available online. Separate topics into clearly divided sections and reduce long essays into bitesize notes for easier learning.

 

Do take breaks – Take regular short breaks to stay energised. Drink plenty of water and eat well to ensure your brain can concentrate. A hearty breakfast will ensure you start the day right. Take a lunch hour to rest in the middle of the day, ready to hit the ground running in the afternoon!

 

Do test yourself – Write and re-write your notes from memory to ensure facts are stored in your brain in the long-term. Ask a parent or tutor to create short quizzes for you to complete and revise further any mistakes you may make.

 

Do revise more than one subject a day – Split your time between two or three subjects every day, too much focus on one subject will tire you out. E.g. do some maths revision in the morning and some chemistry revision in the afternoon.

 

Do start early – It is scientifically proven that our brains are more energized and active in the mornings. Wake up in good time and be ready to start revising by 9am at the latest. Finish in the evenings by 5pm so that you can relax and allow all the revision to sink in! A good night’s sleep will also ensure you awake feeling refreshed for the day of revising ahead.

 

Do revise with friends – Revising alone is important but if you have friends that live locally, arrange study groups and revise together as well. Test each other on facts and knowledge, you may pick up some new information that you didn’t know before.

 

Don’t!

 

 

Don’t panic – Lots of students can find that revision is an overwhelming prospect. There is no need to become stressed about revision. Take our advice in this blog post and you will find that revision can be a great way to not only revise material you already know but to learn new information that will see you achieve great exam results.

 

Don’t overwork yourself – Pace your revision and work to a strict, planned schedule to ensure you make the most of your holiday time. Take regular breaks and remember to make time for a healthy breakfast, lunch and dinner.

 

Don’t procrastinate – Don’t give yourself reasons not to revise. Put away your mobile phone, iPad, laptop and anything else that is a distraction! Don’t make plans that mean you’ll be out all day with friends/family. Revision is best done daily to ensure your brain retains all the information and facts you’ve been learning.

 

Don’t work in a noisy place – Find a nice quiet room at home or in a local library where you can revise in peace and quiet. A home office or dining room where you can sit at a proper table and close the door on any noisy siblings, parents or pets is ideal!

 

Don’t feel defeated – You are not alone! All your peers are in the same situation. Share your revision techniques with your friends and stay positive. Remember that once you’ve sat your exams, you’ll have plenty of time to relax!

 

Lots of student’s approach revision in different ways. Some students like to ‘cram’ as much information into their brains as possible before each exam, some like to revise occasionally and spread out their revision, so they don’t become overwhelmed. However, an organised and diligent approach to revision will undoubtedly stand you in good stead for any upcoming exams. Treat your revision period like an extension of your school timetable, be disciplined with your time and take ownership of your studies. Soon, you may be off to university and the skills you have acquired in your revision periods, will assist you in the independent learning that is required in many higher education courses. Lastly, but certainly not least, the very best of luck with your exams!
