Using The Principles Of Learning - To improve your schoolwork, you can apply the following principles of lear­ ning: 1. Be interested and motivated in your subjects of study; have definite goals. 2. Be active, mentally or physically, in what you are studying or doing. 3. Apply the principle of frequency. Remember the more often you practice a resonse, the more likely you are to learn about it and remember it. 4. In studying an assignment, try to see the whole before studying the parts. 5. Overlearn important material. ' Scientific ex­ periments have shown that a person forgets quickly what he has learned. To overcome this, you must study the material beyond the point where you can just barely remember it. When you think that you know something, lay the material aside and in a short while try to say or write it again. If you have trouble remembering it, study it again and then check to see if you positively know it. The process should be repeated until you are absolutely sure of what you know. r M M Nil Births | McHENRY HOSPITAL Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Cheatham, 3719 W.
