5. TIPS FOR EFFECTIVE LEARNING IN OPENUNIVERSITY
How to approach your studies: It would be good for you to go through the Programme Guidesas well as the Handbooks provided by the University. This will help you to know exactly aboutthe facilities being extended and how you can make best use of these in your learning. That is,you should have an idea of what to expect from the system and how best to use the supportbeing provided.
Quasi-permanent separation: To bridge your semi-permanent separation from your counsellorand to enable you to take advantage of the flexibilities provided in the Open Distance Learning(ODL) system, provision for Face to Face interaction has been made. Moreover, you can contactyour teachers at the Headquarters through phone and e-mail. However, the onus of learning ison you. You must make full use of the flexibility, facilities and innovativeness provided by thesystem.
Adhere to the schedule of operations: Various activities in the ODL system are time boundand the details are given in the programme guides and the handbooks sent to you. Adherenceto the Schedule of Operations shall help you enormously in completion of the courses. As a thumbrule, if you study three hours a day regularly, you should be successful in the minimum stipulatedtime.
23
Studying at your pace and place: You can learn at your pace and place, but it would help ifyou periodically revise what you have learnt. This would also enable you to assess as to how muchremains to be done. The DE system provides for an in-built teacher in the Self Instructional Materials(SIMs). Your pace of learning could be faster and effective if you abide by the instructions givento you in the SIMs and follow the sequence and steps suggested therein, as the objective of theseaccess devices is to regulate your pace of learning.
Taking notes: In SIMs, some space has been provided to take important notes. You should identifykeywords/terms, and put remarks while going through it. This facilitates cross-referencing. You fullfilanswer/solve problems in the Self-assessment Questions (SAQs) and Tenninal Questions (TQs)yourself rather than looking for solutions at the end.
Using media effectively: The audio-visual learning is faster and can be more effective. That iswhy multi-media is one of the integral components of our multiple media instructional package. Forcomplementing your leaming with the help of multi-media effectively. you should visit your study centrefor counselling and insist that your counsellor shows AIV programmes. Such visits will also helpyou obtain the latest information on broadcast and telecast of programmes and tele-conferences beingheld. Now, IGNOU has a 24 hr TV Channel Gyan Darshan and a countrywide network of FMradio stations. You should contact your cable operators to beam Gyan Darshan. In case it is notpossible for you to visit your SCs for some reason, you can procure these cassettes/CDs fromthe University for convenient viewing.
Preparing Assignment Responses: The separation between the teacher and the taught in the ODLsystem is bridged through dialogue established by continuous assessment. Your assignment responsesprovide an opportunity to your counsellor to guide you and pace your learning depending on yourprogress. Therefore, you must write your assignment yourself, in your words depending on the scopeof every question. In some questions, you might be required to give a brief outline while in othersyou may be asked to give your justifications/demonstrate your skills and knowledge/give detaileddescription etc. It is also possible that you may be required to refer to a particular source of informationor data and present your analysis. If possible, discuss implications and suggest application and/orgive illustrations.
When you have answered the assignments, pause for a while and recheck your response to makesure that:
You must keep a copy of each of your assignments and file them in order, separately, for eachcourse. While submitting your assignment at your Study Centre / Programme Centre, you must insiston obtaining acknowledgement. In case you send your assignment by post, keep the registrationslip as evidence. In case of any difficulty or unconvincing response at the Study Centre, please contactyour Regional Centre or the Headquarter. Normally, you should obtain your Tutor Marked Assignmentwithin 45 days. In case you do not receive your evaluated TMAs with tutor comments in the stipulatedperiod you should check with the Study Centre Coordinator. Once you receive the evaluatedassignment responses. go through tutor comments. A careful reading of the comments should giveyou an idea as to how you can improve your responses in future.
Learning from Counselling and Peer Group: In order to make the best use of the counsellingsessions, you should have read the relevant units before going for the counselling session. This willenable you to have useful interactions with your counsellor and peer group. Participate in the discussionwith an open mind. Take note of important points identified by other peer group members and thecounsellor. Do not hesitate to clarify doubts, even if they are trivial.
Taking the Term-end Examination: In our system of education, career prospects are inf1uenced bythe performance in examinations. So we should approach examinations with some caution. However, this

shouldnotcauseanxiety.Another importantpoint tobekept inmindis thatyoumustsubmityourassignmentsas per schedule before the examination.

If you follow them, you will certainlyremember more, have a betterunderstanding, and be able to organise your ideas quickly and effectively.
Even solving previous examination question papers and getting your answers checked byyour counsellorsshouldhelp improveyourperformance.Youcandownload these fromtheIGNOUwebsitewww.ignou.ac.in.Revision of text materials plays a vital role in your preparation for the examinations.
