What is a learning plan?

Peržiūrėti

Until here, you've learned about learning strategies and techniques. You should know which aspects you should consider when going into a learning phase. Also, we've recommended some helpful apps and tools.

It's time to combine everything.

The term "learning plan" might already give it away. It is actually a plan that you have to create individually, combing techniques and methods to your personal preferences. You are not sure how to create a learning plan?

Take the syllabus of a course and a regular calendar. Then, ask yourself the following questions:

  • What do I want to achieve? What do I have to learn?
  • When is the deadline/exam?
  • How much time do I have left to study?
  • What content is relevant? (Always ask your classmates or your teacher when you're not 100% sure.
  • Where do I have my difficulties? Which topics do I not understand so far?
  • How much time per day can I invest in studying?
  • Where will I study every day? Library? School? At home? At a friends place? On the train?
  • Which tools can / will I use for my studying? Books? Apps?
  • Should I study alone or in a group?

Write your answers down and use the calendar to set demanding but manageable learning targets, e.g. completing one unit every two days.

Here you can find a good example of how to create a learning plan using the "SMART" principles.

  • S = Specific
  • M = Measurable
  • A = Acceptable
  • R = Realistic
  • T = Time-Bound
