The title of my project is “Effective Study Among Undergraduate’’. It is embedded under Sustainable Development Goal 4 which is Quality Education. I came up with this project because I have seen so many students study really hard during the semester only for such hard work not to pay off. Other students devout all their time to studying in order have fantastic results which sometimes pay off, but at the expense of their social life and other developing activities they need to be involved in as young people. The basic solution to the identified problem above is “Effective Study”, which in this context, can be said to mean smart work, achieving more in limited time, studying the right way, to mention but a few. Adopting the right studying habit is a skill that will influence their attitude towards any form of activity beyond the school and its environment. I believe the earlier they learn how to study, the better for them.

Project Execution

The project held on the 5th of November, 2021. It was held on zoom, and had both undergraduates and post graduates in attendance. The facilitators were a lecturer of Philosophy from the University of Lagos, and a student from the faculty of Law University of Lagos. From the feedbacks in the registration link, a lot of issues regarding effective study was collated and forwarded to the facilitators, and these issues were properly addressed. They include lack of concentration, results not reflecting studying efforts, difficulty in focusing, forgetting after understanding a concept, inability to assimilate much, voluminous syllabi, other thoughts (Distractions), recalling difficult words, not remembering what has been read after a while, procrastination, laziness when it comes to reading, inability to assimilate quickly, controlling the wondering mind, lack of understanding, studying in time, inability to concentrate, consistency in reading etc. Also, the expectations of the students were met. These expectations include learning faster, solutions to challenges of effective learning, how to cover a lot in a short period, how to concentrate better, a general understanding of effective study techniques, to learn to recall newly learnt vocabularies, curbing laziness, learning faster, enlightenment, fast assimilation and retention, learn to read better, how to stay focused etc.
