The key difference between study skills and study methods is that study skills are the
approaches that are used by learners to do their studies, while study methods are the
means and ways of studying. Both study skills and methods are used to gain successful
and effective learning.

Die belangrikste verskil tussen studievaardighede en studiemetodes is dat

studievaardighede die benaderings is wat deur leerders gebruik word om hul studies te
doen, terwyl studiemetodes die middele en maniere is om te studeer. Beide
studievaardighede en -metodes word gebruik om suksesvolle en effektiewe leer te verkry.

SLIDE 5 PPT

Study skills are an array of skills which tackle the process of organising and taking in new
information, retaining

Information, or dealing with assessments. They are techniques that can be learnt and
applied to most fields of

Study.
Studievaardighede is ‘n verskeidenheid vaardighede wat die proses aanpak om nuwe
inligting te organiseer

En in te neem, inligting te behou of assesserings te hanteer. Dit is tegnieke wat op die

meeste studierigtings

Aangeleer en toegepas kan word.

Importance of study skills:

You will develop your own personal approach to study and learning in a way that meets
your own individual needs. As you develop your study skills you will discover what works for
you, and what doesn’t.

Study skills are not subject specific – they are generic and can be used when studying any
area. You need to understand the concepts, theories and ideas surrounding your specific
subject area. To get the most out of your studies, however, you’ll want to develop your study
skills.

You need to practise and develop your study skills. This will increase your awareness of
how you study, and you’ll become more confident.

Study skills are transferable – you will take them with you beyond your education into new
contexts. For example, organisational skills, time management, prioritising, learning how to
analyse, problem solving, and the self-discipline are all skills that you will apply in your life
after school and into your career one day!

Belangrikheid van studievaardighede:

Jy sal jou eie persoonlike benadering tot studie en leer ontwikkel op ‘n manier wat aan u
eie individuele behoeftes voldoen. Soos jy jou studievaardighede ontwikkel, sal jy ontdek
wat vir jou werk, en wat nie.

Studievaardighede is nie vakspesifiek nie – dit is generies en kan gebruik word wanneer
enige area bestudeer word. Jy moet die konsepte, teorieë en idees rondom jou spesifieke
vakgebied verstaan. Om die meeste uit jou studies te haal, sal jy egter jou
studievaardighede wil ontwikkel.
 Jy moet oefen en jou studievaardighede ontwikkel. Dit sal jou bewustheid van hoe jy
studeer verhoog, en jy sal meer selfvertroue kry.

Studievaardighede is oordraagbaar – jy sal dit ná skool saam met jou kan neem.
Organisatoriese vaardighede, tydsbestuur, prioritisering, hoe om te analiseer,
probleemoplossing en die selfdissipline is byvoorbeeld alles vaardighede wat jy eendag ná
skool en in jou loopbaan gaan toepas!

Reading – SQ4R Method

What is SQ4R? A method of reading and studying textbooks. It’s an acronym for: Survey,
Question, Read,

Respond, Record, and Review.

When using this method, complete all the steps initially, then choose which are most
effective for you and

Your courses.

The SQ4R method may seem time consuming at first, but it’s an effective method for
reading, understanding,

And remembering information from your textbooks.

Benefits of using SQ4R: It’s an active learning strategy that can be adapted to suit an
individual’s study

Preferences. It provides a strategy to retain a lot of factual detail, reducing the amount of
information that must

Be relearned for exams. It prompts the creation of study material to be used when
preparing for exams. It helps

To identify errors or areas of confusion.

THE METHOD:

Step 1: Survey the textbook and chapters. Read the preface and introduction to the text and
browse through the

Table of contents and the index. This will describe the main topics and the basic
organisational structure of the
Book. Read the introduction and conclusion in each chapter and subsection. Scan the
titles and subtitles. Study

The pictures, charts, or graphs. Read the summary and any chapter questions.

Step 2: Start with a question. Take the section title, subtitle, or the first sentence of each
paragraph and turn

It into a question. For example: “Functions of the spinal cord” becomes “What are the
functions of the spinal

Cord?”

Step 3: Read actively. Read carefully and actively by creating a “dialogue” with the text.

Try to find the answer to the question you created and ask questions as you read.

Be careful not to skim the text looking for the answer, as you might miss other important
information.

Step 4: Respond to your question. Close the textbook and answer the question you created
in your own words.

If you can’t answer the question, reread the section until you can.

If, after a few tries, you still can’t answer the question, go on to the next few sections and
see if things become

Clearer. If that doesn’t help, you may need to change your question. Try making it broader
or narrower. If

Changing your question doesn’t help, get some assistance.

Step 5: Record your notes. Once you understand the material and can summarize it in your
own words make a

Record of it. Common methods are highlighting and/or marking the text, or taking notes, or
some combination

Of both. Whichever methods you choose, it’s critical to read and understand the material
first, and then go back

And record.

Step 6: Review your notes: Do a thorough review of notes weekly. Make weekly review
periods effective by
Starting from the beginning of the course in each review session. Though the volume of
review material increases

As the semester progresses, the amount of time needed to review older material
decreases. After you’ve

Reviewed the first week’s material a few times, it will take only minutes to skim over it and
recall the key points.

SQ4R >>>>> O-VLOK-H-LEESMETODE:

Wat is O-VLOK-H-LEESMETODE? Dit is ‘n manier om handboeke te lees en te bestudeer. O-

oorsig, V-Vrae, L-Lees,

O-Opsom, K-Kontrole en H-Hersiening.

(‘n Ander metode is ook die VSL2H- metode; ‘n metode met een stap minder Dit is ‘n
akroniem vir: Vluglees (V),

Stel Vrae (S), Lees (L), Herhaal (H) en Hersien.)

Voordele van die gebruik van O-VLOK-H: Dit is ‘n aktiewe leerstrategie wat aangepas kan
word om by ‘n individu

Se studievoorkeure te pas. Dit bied ‘n strategie om baie feitelike besonderhede te onthou,

wat die hoeveelheid

Inligting wat vir eksamens herleer moet word, verminder. Dit moedig die skep van
leerinhoud aan wat gebruik

Moet word tydens die voorbereiding vir eksamens. Dit help om foute of areas van
verwarring te identifiseer.

DIE METODE:

Stap 1:OORSIG: Lees die voorwoord en inleiding tot die teks en blaai deur die
inhoudsopgawe en die indeks.

Dit sal die hoofonderwerpe en die basiese organisasiestruktuur van die boek beskryf. Lees
die inleiding en

Slot in elke hoofstuk en onderafdeling. Skandeer die titels en onderskrifte. Bestudeer die
prente, kaarte of

Grafieke. Lees die opsomming en enige vrae in die hoofstuk.

 Stap 2: VRAE: Neem die afdelingstitel, subtitel of die eerste sin van elke paragraaf en
verander dit in ‘n vraag.

Byvoorbeeld: “Funksies van die rugmurg” word “Wat is die funksies van die rugmurg?”

Stap 3: LEES: Lees noukeurig en aktief deur ‘n ‘dialoog’ met die teks te voer. Probeer om
die antwoord op die

Vrae, wat jy geskep het, te vind en vra vrae terwyl jy lees. Wees versigtig om nie slegs die
teks te deursoek op

Soek na die antwoord nie, aangesien jy ander belangrike inligting sal mis.

Stap 4: OPSOM: Sodra jy die lesinhoud verstaan, som dit in jou eie woorde op. Algemene
metodes is om die

Teks uit te lig en/of te merk, of aantekeninge te maak, of ‘n kombinasie van albei. Watter
metodes jy ook al

Kies, dit is van kritieke belang om eers die inhoud te lees en te verstaan, en dan terug te
gaan en op te som.

Stap 5: KONTROLE: Maak die handboek toe en beantwoord die vraag wat jy geskep het in
jou eie woorde. As

Jy nie die vraag kan beantwoord nie, lees die gedeelte weer totdat jy kan. As jy na ‘n paar
probeerslae steeds

Nie die vraag kan beantwoord nie, gaan dan na die volgende paar afdelings en kyk of dinge
duideliker word.

As dit nie help nie, moet jy dalk jou vraag verander. Probeer om dit breër of meer spesifiek
te maak. As dit

Nie help om jou vraag te verander nie, kry hulp.

Stap 6: HERSIEN: Doen weekliks ‘n deeglike oorsig van jou notas. Maak weeklikse
hersieningstydperke

Effektief deur van vooraf alles deur te lees. Alhoewel die volume hersieningsmateriaal
toeneem namate die

Kwartaal vorder, neem die hoeveelheid tyd wat nodig is om ouer materiaal te hersien, af.
Nadat jy die inhoud
Van die eerste week ‘n paar keer nagegaan het, sal dit slegs ‘n paar minute neem om
daardeur te blaai en die

Belangrikste punte te herroep.

Time Management includes:

Effective Planning

Setting goals and objectives

(Think back to when you learnt about GOAL SETTING and how that can help us in figuring
out where we are

Going and what we want to achieve.)

Setting deadlines

Prioritizing activities as per their importance

Spending the right time on the right activity

An effective time management strategy needs to be: EASY to plan, implement and
maintain.

Benefits of Time Management:

Less stress in completing assignments.

Less stress due to better prepared for exams.

If you’re organised, you can fit more into your life.

More time to do the things you would prefer to be doing over schoolwork.

More balance and control in your life.

Tydsbestuur sluit in:

 Effektiewe beplanning

Stel doelwitte en doelstellings

(Dink terug aan wanneer jy geleer het van DOELWITSTELLING en hoe dit ons kan help om
uit te vind

Waarheen ons op pad is en wat ons wil bereik.)

Stel sperdatums op

Prioritisering van aktiwiteite volgens die belangrikheid daarvan

Bestee die regte tyd aan die regte aktiwiteit

‘n Effektiewe tydbestuurstrategie moet wees: MAKLIK om te beplan, te implementeer en vol

te hou.

Voordele van tydsbestuur:

Minder spanning in die voltooiing van opdragte.

Minder spanning as gevolg van beter voorbereiding vir eksamens.

As jy georganiseerd is, kan jy meer in jou lewe inpas.

Meer tyd om die dinge te doen wat jy verkies om bo skoolwerk te doen.

Meer balans en beheer in jou lewe.

Study methods:

Study methods refer to methods and strategies a learner can make use of when studying.
Studying requires strategies that can be used to increase the chances of success.

STUDIEMETODES

Studiemetodes verwys na metodes en strategieë waarvan ‘n leerder gebruik kan maak

wanneer hul studeer.

Studies vereis strategieë wat gebruik kan word om die kanse op sukses te verhoog.

Taking notes:
Note-taking is the practice of recording information from different sources and platforms.
By taking notes, you

Record the essence of the information, freeing the mind from having to recall everything.

Keeps you alert. Notetaking keeps your body active and involved and helps you avoid
feelings of drowsiness

Or distraction.

Engages your mind and keeps you thinking while you are busy.

Emphasizes and organises information, by taking notes your brain can ‘file’ things away
for later.

Creates a condensed record for study and helps with the studying process later on.

NEEM NOTAS

Om notas te neem is die praktyk om inligting uit verskillende bronne en platforms op te

neem. Deur

Aantekeninge te maak, teken jy die kern van die inligting op en bevry jy gedagtes om alle
inhoud te onthou.

Dit hou jou waaksaam: Notas hou jou liggaam aktief en betrokke en help jou om
gevoelens van slaperigheid

Of afleiding te vermy. Notas help jou om aandag te gee en help jou om te fokus en jou te
help leer.

Betrek jou gedagtes en hou jou aan die dink terwyl jy besig is.

Beklemtoon en organiseer inligting – deur aantekeninge te maak kan jou brein dinge
‘liasseer’ vir later.

Skep ‘n verkorte rekord van studies en help later met die leerproses.

Use colours when working with diagrams or summaries to emphasise the importance of
certain terms. This is

Also helpful when analysing what is being asked in a particular question.

An index comes in handy when you have lots of notes and you want to organise how to find
them. You could also

Use an index to cross reference between sections.

Gebruik kleure wanneer jy met diagramme of opsommings werk om die belangrikheid van
sekere terme te

Beklemtoon. Dit is ook nuttig wanneer jy ontleed wat in ‘n spesifieke vraag gevra word.

‘n Indeks kom handig te pas as jy baie notas het en jy wil organiseer hoe om dit te vind. Jy
kan ook ‘n indeks

Gebruik om te kruisverwys tussen afdelings.

A whiteboard can be very helpful to practice exercises in things like maths or subjects
where there is some

Working out or drawings.

‘n Witbord kan baie nuttig wees om oefeninge te doen, soos wiskunde of vakke waar daar ‘n
bietjie oefening of

Tekeninge is.

MIND MAPPING:

Mind Mapping is a useful technique that supports learning, improves information

recording, shows how different

Facts and ideas are related, and enhances creative problem solving.

Mind maps can give you an effective method of taking notes and planning essays. Mind
Maps will help you see

The structure of a subject, the important facts and how they are linked. Your Mind Maps are
yours alone. Once

You understand how to make them you can develop your own ways to take things further.
Mind maps use words and images to create strong associations that help you remember
what you’re studying.

Some people use mind mapping as a more ‘natural’ form of note-taking. You can use mind
maps to brainstorm,

Plan, revise and more.

A mind map is a diagram used to represent words, ideas, tasks, or other items linked to
and arranged around

A central key word or idea. Mind maps are used to generate, visualize, structure, and
classify ideas, and as an

Aid to studying and organising information, solving problems, making decisions, and
writing.

The elements of a given mind map are arranged intuitively according to the importance of
the concepts, and

Are classified into groupings, branches, or areas, with the goal of representing semantic or
other connections

Between portions of information. Mind maps may also aid recall of existing memories.

In a mind map, information is structured in a way that mirrors how the brain functions

Breinkaarte is ‘n nuttige tegniek wat leer ondersteun, inligtingsopname verbeter, wys hoe
verskillende feite en

Idees verband hou, en kreatiewe probleemoplossing verbeter.

Breinkaarte kan vir jou ‘n effektiewe metode gee om aantekeninge te maak en opstelle te
beplan. Dit sal jou help

Om die struktuur van ‘n onderwerp, die belangrike feite en hoe dit gekoppel is, te sien.

Breinkaarte gebruik woorde en prente om sterk assosiasies te skep wat jou help om te
onthou wat jy leer. Jy

Kan breinkaarte gebruik om ‘n dinkskrum te hou, te beplan, te hersien en diesmeer.

‘n Breinkaart is ‘n diagram wat gebruik word om woorde, idees, take of ander items voor te
stel wat aan ‘n
Sentrale sleutelwoord of idee gekoppel en gerangskik is. Breinkaarte word gebruik om idees
te genereer, te

Visualiseer, te struktureer en te klassifiseer, en as ‘n hulpmiddel om inligting te bestudeer

en te organiseer,

Probleme op te los, besluite te neem en te skryf.

Die elemente van ‘n gegewe breinkaart word intuïtief gerangskik volgens die belangrikheid
van die konsepte

En word geklassifiseer in groeperings, vertakkings of gebiede, met die doel om semantiese

of ander

Verbindings tussen gedeeltes van inligting voor te stel. Breinkaarte kan ook help om
bestaande herinneringe

Te herroep.

In ‘n breinkaart is inligting gestruktureer op ‘n manier wat weerspieël hoe die brein

funksioneer.

SUMMARISING

We usually make summaries to study for a test or an exam. The purpose is to condense
learning material so that

It can be readily assimilated, thereby reducing study time.

Summarising teaches students how to discern the most important ideas in a text, how to
ignore irrelevant

Information, and how to integrate the central ideas in a meaningful way. Teaching students
to summarize

Improves their memory for what is read. Summarization strategies can be used in almost
every content area.

In student-friendly terms, summarising is telling the most important parts of a text, in your
own words, in a

Much shorter way. Teaching summarising shows students how to discern the essential
ideas in a text, how to
Ignore irrelevant information, and how to integrate the central ideas in a meaningful way.
Teaching students to

Summarize improves their memory for what they read and acts as a check for
comprehension. Summarising is a

Complex skill that will continue to develop over time, as students read increasingly
complex texts.

OPSOMMINGS

Ons maak gewoonlik opsommings om vir ‘n toets of eksamen te studeer. Die doel is om
leermateriaal te

Kondenseer sodat dit maklik geassimileer kan word en sodoende studietyd te verminder.

Opsommings leer leerders hoe om die belangrikste idees in ‘n teks te onderskei, hoe om
irrelevante inligting te

Ignoreer en hoe om die sentrale idees op ‘n sinvolle manier te integreer. Om leerders te leer
hoe om op te som,

Verbeter hul geheue van wat gelees word. Opsommingstrategieë kan in byna elke
inhoudsarea gebruik word.

Opsommings behels die skryf van belangrikste dele van ‘n teks, in jou eie woorde, op ‘n
baie korter manier.

Die leer van opsommings maak, wys leerders hoe om die noodsaaklike idees in ‘n teks te
onderskei, hoe om

Irrelevante inligting te ignoreer en hoe om die sentrale idees op ‘n sinvolle manier te

integreer. Om leerders te

Leer hoe om op te som, verbeter hul geheue vir wat hulle lees en dien as ‘n kontrole vir
begrip. Opsommings is ‘n

Komplekse vaardigheid wat mettertyd sal aanhou ontwikkel, aangesien leerders

toenemend ingewikkelde tekste lees.

SELECTING IMPORTANT CONCEPTS

Identifying the concepts or main ideas in a chapter of text can be challenging.

 Identify these from the paragraph: Who, What, Where, When, Why, and How and list
them. Then write a

Sentence or two using these terms. That can get you the main idea.

Read the paragraph, then think of a question you could ask that would be answered by that
paragraph. The

Question will be the main concept.

Identify the main concepts in your research question by selecting nouns important to the
meaning of your

Question. Leave out words that don’t help the search, such as adjectives, adverbs,
prepositions and, usually,

Verbs.

Key concepts indicate the main concepts, themes, and/or ideas. Many of these concepts in
textbooks are bold

Or italicized; however, not all of them are. One way to think of key concepts are the words
or phrases that

Contribute to the overall idea.

KIES BELANGRIKE KONSEPTE

Die identifisering van die konsepte of hoofidees in ‘n tekshoofstuk kan uitdagend wees.

Identifiseer die volgende uit die paragraaf: Wie, Wat, Waar, Wanneer, Waarom en Hoe én
lys dit. Skryf dan ‘n

Sin of twee met behulp van hierdie terme. Dit sal vir jou die kernidee gee.

Lees die paragraaf en dink dan aan ‘n vraag wat jy kan vra wat deur daardie paragraaf
beantwoord sal word.

Die vraag sal die hoofkonsep wees.

Identifiseer die hoofkonsepte in jou navorsingsvraag deur selfstandige naamwoorde te

kies wat belangrik is

Vir die betekenis van jou vraag. Los woorde uit wat nie die soektog help nie, soos byvoeglike
naamwoorde,
Bywoorde, voorsetsels en gewoonlik werkwoorde.

Sleutelbegrippe dui die hoofbegrippe, temas en/of idees aan. Baie van hierdie konsepte in
handboeke is

Vetgedruk of kursief gedruk; maar nie almal is nie. Een manier om aan sleutelbegrippe te
dink, is die woorde of

Frases wat bydra tot die algemene idee.
