How to Get the Most Out of Studying: Part 1

In the first of five short videos, Paul Chew, a cognitive psychologist at Samford University, points out the following beliefs that make you stupid. 

1. Learning is Fast
2. Knowledge is Composed of Isolated Facts
3. Being Good at a Subject is a Matter of Inborn Talent
4. I'm Really Good at Multi-Tasking

Dr. Chew points out that being under-prepared and over-confident is a sign of trouble to come in one's demonstration of content mastery (aka, performance on a test).  Check out the first video in this series; I'll post the other videos in the coming weeks.
