It is often observed that children studying very little score more than those who spend hours on studying. They are no different than any of the normal children. A different approach towards studies creates the difference. Holistic learning is a different way to study & emphasizes more on understanding information & linking it to other topics rather than memorizing lots of pages. It is rather the most effective way of studying & requires less time to study.
How to use it?
-
At the start of studies, make your children understand the topic going to be studied, its relation to other topics & subjects & also their importance.
-
Quote examples wherever & whenever required. More the examples, the better go the understanding.
-
Draw & work in time lines.
-
Make summaries as they proceed in with time.
-
To feel, see and hear the information makes it easy to be understood. All aspects should be made clear.
-
Make them develop concrete beginning & ending points.
-
Do not let your children distracted from the studies or any task in hand.
-
Give them simple assignments & brain teasers to solve.
