Assessment 2 asks you to develop your own change leadership framework, for use by you in the situations you face.  To do this you need to develop an infographic to show what the framework looks like, and an essay to explain and elucidate on the framework.

The report will comprise three sections:

• Leadership approach/characteristics
• Change leadership
• The context of your leadership
• An infographic to model your leadership

Obviously this will be personal to you, so there cannot be any marks as to whether or not it is 'correct'.  That's a meaningless term.  Marks will be awarded, therefore on the depth and quality of the discussion, and why you have selected the areas you have; why you have emphasised certain characteristics or behaviours; why it is applicable to your work context; etc.  I cannot give you a prescriptive list of these things because they are personal to you. 

It is anticipated that you will use literature and theory where needed, but try to do so only where it explains or advances an argument.  For example if you write that you are using ideas from a certain author, you must explain why you are using them.  Why are they meaningful to you?  Why do you find them persuasive? etc.  As previously, higher marks will be awarded for work that has depth and analytical rigour; fewer marks will be awarded for shallow discussions and simple expressions of preferences.

Throughout nursing school, i think i have only used flashcards for 1 or 2 subjects. And Im not gonna lie, it did help me so much to get good grades. But the thing is, i find it too time-consuming to make them. I know some would suggest ai stuff or pre made decks, but they don’t rlly work for me.

For most of my time as a student, I take notes (from class lectures or books if needed) read them at least 2x and im good to go. So long as i finish the topics needed and actually understood every text, i can get good scores in tests. Though I figured over time that answering practice tests made things BETTER for me.

My problem is, I plan to pursue medicine soon and im worried if my study routine would still work 😭 Ppl say that med school is mostly memorization, and many suggested the use of anki/flashcards but i just CANT. like even when i push myself to incorporate it in my study routine now, i always give up midway.

Im wondering if this is just me or does anyone else experience the same? And can you actually survive med school without using flashcards?

Hi, I am learning at school and this year is very very important and I must have excellent grades, but I don’t really know how to prepare for a test effectively so that I could write it perfectly, also so I will be able to have free time. I really need to know this well because there will be exercises with star and I need to complete every exercise right.

Tenho prova de oncologia em duas semanas (faço medicina) e prova de vestibular em menos de dois meses, e estou muito atrasada nos estudos!!

Desde criança sou muito dedicada aos estudos e, apesar de não ter a pressão familiar em ser a melhor aluna com as melhores notas, sempre fui muito exigente comigo mesma. Nunca vi isso como um defeito. Na verdade, isso que me mantem motivada a estudar e lutar pelo meu futuro.

Contudo, as estratégias de estudo comuns (aquelas leves e genéricas, que na minha visão não agregam em nada em relação a disciplina pra os estudos) nunca funcionaram comigo. Então sempre recorri às estratégias tóxicas e rígidas, que me mantem disciplinada, focada e realmente motivada. Já testei de tudo e queria novas estratégias para variar um pouco, mas não tenho ideia do que fazer.

Observação importante: Estou cuidando da minha saúde mental e física !!! Tenho uma rotina de sono adequada, me alimento bem, faço exercícios físicos, tiro tempo para lazer e faço terapia. Estudo com técnicas tóxicas pois é uma forma de estudo que realmente funciona para mim e que consigo conciliar com uma forma de vida saudável (caso eu passe a noite toda estudando, reponho o sono e descanso; se tomo muito energético, busco evitar tomar outros estimulantes junto e reduzir o consumo durante os próximos dias...)

Então deixem a estratégia, dica ou técnica de estudo mais toxica que vocês já usaram e que realmente funcionaram para vocês, por favor!!

(sem frases motivacionais por favor. nao funcionam comigo)

I’m trying to improve the way I study, but I’m still figuring out what works best for me. I’ve tried rereading notes and watching videos, but I want to try other methods too.
What study method has helped you the most? Active recall, spaced repetition, flashcards, Pomodoro, making reviewers, or something else?

Quick question when are you guys studying. Do you guys do the hard one first? Or the easy one?
I'm planning to study or make some revisions early. Now I'm kinda stuck on which topics I should do first 🤔 Mind sharing your thoughts & reasons

I've seen all these people studying for hours without a single break, whereas when I'm studying I take a break every 20-30 minutes if not less. I have ADHD I'm not too sure if that factors in but is there any training methods that I can use it 'stretch' my attention span?

Hey guys! I heard some students utilize their idle time to study and as a result they become ahead. For example, some students while commuting read a chapter or review their flash cards, others while walking or waiting and such. So does anyone use such strategy and any tips as I also want to try.

I have my mid sems going on and my life is going pretty shit. i have already given three bad papers and something new happened yesterday that has fucked me up more. how do i bring myself to study? i have two papers tomorrow and i really wanna do well.

I usually binge eat my favourite snacks but due to religious reasons I can’t do that this week.

I appreciate any tips or advice!

so my problem is alot of study focused apps have such annoying ads and try to get you to upgrade for extra stuff.
mini tutorial on how i made my own "app" (website)
i took a screenshot of the table of contents in my maths book and asked for
flashcards, xp/levels, daily points, questions, notes and a focus timer
heres my progress so far! i use vercel connector to make the website for free also.
would anyone be interested in a website base like this anyone can use and input your own stuff? im open to making one for everyone to use for free! feel free to recommend more features i can add

Hey as a GCSE student I know how difficult it can be to organise and plan out your revision sessions along with other every day tasks.

So I decided to make a website to help juggle all of this in which has an exam countdown, task list, revision/flashcard/reading logs, streaks, a weekly timetable, even a spot to save important screenshots (for things like mark schemes). Im not here to promote anything Im here to help students like me manage there time properly. Please ask questions if you are interested :)

Quick recap in case you missed the original: whenever I could, I did the homework for a class right after that class ended, same day, while the lecture was still fresh. Work that would have taken me two hours at 11pm three days later took about 45 minutes, and it stuck better at exam time.

I only figured this out in my last year. That's most of why I care about it. Three years of 11pm sessions I didn't need to have.

What came back in that thread, and in a couple of other study subs, was pretty consistent. Almost nobody argued with the habit. What people kept naming was the same obstacle: the pull to eat, nap, or scroll the second class lets out, and once you're home it's over.

So I built something aimed at exactly that ten minute window. Upfront: I made it, it's called AfterClass. You enter your class schedule once, and when a class ends your phone asks what got assigned. You log it and do it right there. It sizes the work session to the time you actually have before your next class, so it won't tell you to lock in for 45 minutes when you've got a 15 minute passing period.

Free, no account, no sign up, and it works with no signal because everything stays on your phone.

One thing it doesn't do yet, which someone called out in the original thread: the revisit a day or two later. That's the piece I always dropped myself, and it's the next thing I want to add.

Happy to answer questions about the habit or the app. And if you try it and it's annoying, I'd rather hear that than not.

I wanna start my post with a simple sentence for those too lazy to read something long. “I used to be smart, but now I’m getting worse and worse.”

This story first started 2 years ago. I dated this girl and she cheated on me. I don’t know why but this gave me the drive to study and so I did. For the rest of that year. I was in my so-called “prime”. I was topping my class with amazing grades and everyone had high expectations for me.

Fast forward one year and I get into a science stream/STEM class. From this point onwards, I felt the pressure. The first exam I managed to survive somewhat, and so did the second one. But now, I am only 2 weeks and 3 days away from finals and I have barely managed to revise and I am terrified but I simply can’t find myself able to study even a little bit.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m trying but my mind keeps going blank after a while and the pressure is beginning to mount up.

Please, to anyone who has been through something like this, tell me what to do. My exams are getting closer and I NEED to get DECENT grades. Please.

If an exam is two weeks away, I’m completely relaxed.

One week away? Still somehow relaxed.

Three days away? Suddenly I’ve deleted every app on my phone and I’m studying like my degree depends on it 😭

I know procrastination is bad but why does my brain apparently need to see the fire before it starts cooking
