Guidelines for getting a group together

people who stay alert in class, take notes, ask questions and respond to the teacher’s
questions. Include someone who understand the material better than you and can
explain the where? Hold study group sessions in a place that is free of
distractions and that has room to spread out books and notes. How long? Meet for
no more than two to three hours at a time. Having a time limit helps the group
focus. If you know you only have an n hour, you’re more likely to stay on task.
When? Try to meet regularly, on the same day and time each week. When? Try to
meet regularly, on the same day and time each week. Treating the study session
