"...learning is not something that just happens to you, it is something that you do to yourself. You cannot be 'given' learning, nor can you be forced to do it. The most brilliant and inspired teacher cannot 'cause' you to learn. Only you can do that."
5 Study Tips for You
1. Know the language.
Learn the vocabulary. Make a note of words that are unfamiliar and look up the definitions using glossary or try a Google search in the form of "define: search term".

As you read, ask yourself some questions. Focus on finding answers to these questions.
5. Be curious.
Take advantage of your time in the biology course. Look for the applications of the material that you are studying. Check the news, do a quick search on Google Scholar. Be an active participant.
