| dc.description.abstract | Studying is one of the most important learning activities for students. As no individual is an island of knowledge, there is a need to study in order to acquire the desired knowledge. Ibrahim (2009) avers that “to study is to devote time and attention to the acquisition of knowledge and competence on an academic subject” (p. 10). In other words, studying is not reading for leisure. Studying transcends simply reading notes and textbooks. It involves the acquisition of knowledge through conscientious efforts and certain measures for particular academic purposes or achievements. Studying is an art which needs to be mastered (Adegbija 1998). This chapter thus focuses on identifying the different general measures for an effective study, the purpose of studying, and factors that impede effective study. Let us begin with the purpose of studying. | en_US |
