The Power of Study Groups


The Power of Study Groups
Part 2
The Benefits of Study Groups
Groups study offers other advantages in addition to gaining a deeper understanding of class material. These include the opportunity to:
Reinforce note—taking. If your AP Biology notes are unclear, you can ask a member of your study group to help you fill the gaps. Share talents. Each person brings different strengths, such as organization.
Cover more ground. Group members may be able to solve a calculus problem together that none would have solved alone.
Benefits from a support system. Members often have common goals, such as good grades. Each person’s work affects the other members, which results is making members supportive of one another. Socialize. It’s more fun to study with others; the give-and-take makes it more interesting. And because it’s more fun, you spend more time studying!
