When I think about my perfect resource, the first thing I need to consider is how I study and how I learn. When it comes to learning, personally I am a very visual, aural, kinaesthetic learner, so simply reading and making notes certainly won\u2019t cut it for me.<\/p>\n
Now obviously the best form of delivering literature is still in the form of print and eBooks, however in order to really utilise the information we have been given we can go much further beyond plain texts to engage with the reading. With geography being an ever-changing subject, many of our readings centre around articles, and on the odd occasion we may have to refer to a textbook.<\/p>\n
Before we even begin getting started on my perfect resource, something every textbook NEEDS to have are Chapter Summaries.<\/em> If you\u2019ve ever been assigned a reading that is 30 pages long you will know what I mean. We have all had that moment where you\u2019ve done a whole section of reading and got to the end and thought, \u201cwhat did I just read?\u201d and that thought of having to read it again makes you want to quit the day and go back to bed. (Queue emotional music) With just a few short bullet points at the end of a chapter, thousands more students could make it through the day without mental numbness. Anyway for more on textbooks check out Aly\u2019s Post<\/a> on her perfect resource, as much of our feelings are the same.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
