Why Students Need to Develop Study Skills?

Developing strong study skills provides university students with two benefits for their academic study.

First, it assists students to manage time effectively since they are able to use their leisure time and study time. This time management helps learners, for example, complete their tasks on time, so they can reduce their stress accordingly.

A further benefit is that study skills allows students to be independent learners. This means that the students have to be responsible for their own learning success by setting up their own learning schedule, finding reliable sources to study, reflecting on their learning regularly and seeking assistance if they need.

On the whole, developing study skills contributes to the success of academic study.
