Here are two study tips from over 1,500 tips submitted by students and teachers
Do not study if you are tired, angry, distracted, or in a hurry. When the brain is relaxed, it is like a sponge and it naturally absorbs data without effort. If you are emotionally stressed, your brain literally repels data. Forcing yourself to sit and study when your mind is on other things is a complete waste of time!

What helps me a lot is that when I'm writing down my notes, I color code them. That way I can find what I'm looking for faster. I also work in a quiet environment away from distractions to help me get more done.

Here are two teachings tips from our collection of over 250 practical tips
Having Materials Ready
Be proactive by placing all materials and supplies students need to do their work in bins that are easily accessible to them. Lessons can be disrupted if you have to continually stop to provide one or more students with the supplies and materials they need for the lesson or assignment.
Selective Attention
Students are apt to do many things in class that you do not approve of. You can go crazy trying to respond to everything. Some of these things can be ignored without negative consequences. Save your energy for those things that have to be attended to.
