Seven useful hacks that can help you immediately to be more productive in your online lessons!
With the COVID outbreak, online classes have become a norm in society. The offline medium is waning rapidly and virtual media is the most desired spot for education too. Even though online classes seem perfect for the flexibility of it, there are going to be some obvious distractions in this digital age. No need to worry, we got you covered! Let us discuss seven highly useful ways you can control your distractions and direct your mind only to the 'lectures' in this article!
The most singled out problem that students face while having an online class is obviously social media. In this age, the usage of social media like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Tiktok is widespread and it's common that one might just sneak away to one of them during the classes as there is little to no chance that you will be caught. One way to counter it can be to deactivate your account for the time period you are taking a class. You can turn off the notifications of the Social Media apps too.
Some feel more focused while studying in a library, while some in their room under a study lamp. That little space is termed a special study space. Try to find your study space and attend your classes in that place only.
Use your regular earbuds of headphones while the class takes place. This helps in cancelling the outside noise and to concentrate in studies. It also helps soothening your mind through soft musical pieces while revising your lessons.
Multitasking might sound cool in today's age and sometimes people have to do it to keep up with the increasing imbalance of work-life pressure. However, does it really help a person in the long-term? Multitasking creates immense stress on the human mind. It also generates frustration if a slight mistake happens because while multitasking, even the slightest fault can give rise to a big overall problem. Focus on study while studying, focus on social media when using it for a shorter time period. Don't try to do both at once. Stopping multitasking in your daily routine helps you acclimatise with the diminishing multitasking in your study life too.
While the internet is a dangerous place, there are several benefits of it too. Many time management apps are available at Play Store that can help you organise your schedule or even notify you when you get distracted much from your daily routine.
Studying is a huge part of building someone's life. If you falter in this part of your life, you might get some serious obstacles in your later career. That is why, replacing social media for the time being will only be beneficial for your future. Try working out, going out on walks or meditating to fill up the time you gave to social media. You can even use that extra time to revise your lessons.
