Study Guide
For the upcoming test, you will need to know all of the following
vocabulary/language of the discipline. Don’t just work towards memorizing the
definitions, but rather, think of the words as list of topics you will have to teach someone
about in the near future. Write this information on a separate piece of paper so you can
organize your thoughts well. Another good tip is to come up with your own mnemonic
devices or use the ones produced in class to help you in remembering key concepts. The
idea of this study guide is to give you direction in figuring out how you learn and study
best! Good luck!
