Workshop Follow-Up

Thank you for joining our recent workshop! We explored a variety of effective study strategies and techniques to help you retain information better. To support your continued learning, we're offering a comprehensive PDF that covers the following topics:

  • Why Studying Smarter Matters in Medicine
  • The Problem: Why Traditional Study Habits Fail Junior Doctors
  • Myth #1: “I Just Need to Read More”
    The Upgrade: Active Recall + Strategic Learning

    Summary: Active recall involves testing yourself on the material rather than passively reading it. Strategic learning focuses on understanding and applying concepts rather than rote memorization.

  • Myth #2: “Cramming Works for Me”
    The Upgrade: Spaced Repetition + Microlearning

    Summary: Spaced repetition involves reviewing material at increasing intervals to enhance long-term retention. Microlearning breaks down study sessions into short, focused segments.

  • Myth #3: “Flashcards Are All I Need”
    The Upgrade: Retrieval Practice + Case-Based Learning

    Summary: Retrieval practice involves actively recalling information, while case-based learning applies knowledge to real-world scenarios to deepen understanding.

  • Myth #4: “I’ll Just Smash Through Question Banks”
    The Upgrade: Study Smarter with Strategic Testing

    Summary: Strategic testing involves reviewing both correct and incorrect answers to understand reasoning, and using a mistake log to focus on weak areas.

  • Myth #5: “Highlighting Helps Me Focus”
    The Upgrade: Active Engagement Strategies

    Summary: Active engagement strategies include summarizing, questioning, and teaching the material to others, which promotes deeper learning.

  • Myth #6: “I Don’t Have Time to Study Properly”
    The Upgrade: Study Smarter, Not Longer

    Summary: Efficient study techniques like time-blocking, the Pomodoro technique, and habit stacking help maximize study time without sacrificing wellbeing.

  • Conclusion: Smarter, Stronger, and Ready to Succeed
