How to Study: A Brief Guide

From the esteemed Professor William J. Rappaport, Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Department of Philosophy, and Center for Cognitive Science, SUNY Buffalo.  

His website may be plain-jane but the info is golden. Great cartoons and lots of links to more good stuff from other sources. 

Learning in College

From the Oregon State College Academic Success Center, which asks:

"Do you want to improve your study skills (reading, taking notes, preparing for tests), so you are a more effective learner? Do you feel lost during lectures or are not sure what to do with your notes after class? Do you feel like you don’t always remember what you study?"

​If you answer 'yes' to any of the above, this site's for you!
