StudyWhiz can help you use your thinking power to become a better student.

StudyWhiz is a learning system that helps students unravel the mystery of how subject matter is organized so that they can learn it more efficiently and effectively. The central message of StudyWhiz is that students who practice being more thoughtful about their schoolwork will not only become more efficient learners but will also increase their capacity to learn additional material.  

The system guides students through seven thoughtful learning strategies called MindFrames. StudyWhiz MindFrames include the following:

1. Previewing - focusing attention 

2. Naming - Identifying and recording important ideas

3. Connecting -Making visual organizers to build memory power

4. Recapping - Monitoring progress 

5. Constructing - Applying learning in different ways

6. Self-testing - Practicing for tests

7. Reflecting - Recording attitudes and opinions about learning

MindFrames help students reduce gaps in knowledge and improve their learning efficiency.

Each MindFrame gives students a different study strategy for creating links between what they already know and what they are trying to learn.

Parents can use StudyWhiz to help students complete their schoolwork and teachers will find it an invaluable resource guide for actively teaching learning-to-learn skills.
