5.3. PRODUCTIVITY- EFFICIENT WAYS OF STUDY

There is a common belief that intelligent people are generally more successful. Although this

opinion is partially true, successful people attribute the secret of their success to "regular and
systematic work". Intelligence is necessary but not sufficient for success. Moreover, education

programs are generally arranged for those with an average level of intelligence, not those who

are very intelligent.
Elements that affect student achievement in education such as planned and programmed

study, good use of time and planning, organizing and choosing a suitable study environment,
note taking, active listening (effective listening), fast and effective reading (efficient reading),

summarizing, strengthening memory, motivation, repetition and coming to class prepared are
important in onlişne educaiton as well. However, you need to adjust or change your study

habits during online education.

the online learning platform, class hours, assignments etc. Make a schedule of your daily
class activities and make sure you take notes about the new information as it comes up.
