The video linked above is a great way to help students who may be having a hard time studying. I remember when I was younger I was one of the worst people I knew at studying. I'd always find myself distracted, looking out the window, or wanting to play video games. However as the video shows there are a great number of things one can do in order to effectively studying. The core concept behind the video is self-recognition. By this I mean the video stresses that in order to be the most effective at studying, somebody really has to know about themselves, most notably their shortcomings. Are you easily distracted by loud noise? Pick a quiet place to study. Always feeling hungry or bored when studying? Bring a snack with you before you start. Finding the words in your music to be distracting you? Pick music that doesn't have lyrics, like classical music. For myself I find it most effective when I sit in a quiet room, with some tea to sip on and some Mozart in the background. However that may not be true to everyone. The most important thing when it comes to studying is knowing what it is you have to do to make your studying the most effective.
