#168 – You're told to be an independent learner at university—but no one actually shows you how. In this episode, I'm unpacking why independent learning feels so hard at higher education level, especially if you're returning to study as an adult. You'll learn why the problem isn't your intelligence, motivation or potential—but the lack of proper support. I'll break down the myth of ‘just figuring it out', share the metaphor I use with my students to explain what's really going on, and walk you through what should happen instead. If studying still feels harder than it should be, this episode will help you understand why—and give you a clearer way forward.

#167 – You worked hard. You followed the guidance. You poured hours into your essay… and still didn't get the mark you hoped for. If that sounds familiar, this episode is for you. In this episode, I'm unpacking the only two reasons why your essay grades aren't higher—and why these problems have nothing to do with your intelligence, effort or potential. You'll learn how misunderstanding the question and writing at the wrong level are the most common (and fixable) reasons students lose marks. I'll walk you through the signs to look out for, the types of feedback that hint at these issues and the specific study skills that can turn things around. Whether you're aiming to pass confidently or push your marks higher, this episode will help you close the gap between the grade you got and the one you deserve.

Bobbi talks with with Bon Anderson about ways to efficiently study during vet school. Host: Dr. Bobbi Conner Guest: Bon Anderson Producer: Topher Conlan

MMM-The prefix "ob-" in English has a fascinating range of meanings and uses. Here's a breakdown of its main functions and some examples: 1. "Against" or "In the way" obstacle: Something that stands in your way. object: To express disapproval or disagreement. obstruct: To block or hinder progress. obvious: Easily seen or understood, as if it's "in the way" of being missed. 2. "Toward" obligation: A duty or commitment that you're bound "toward." observe: To watch carefully, directing your attention "toward" something. 3. "Thoroughly" or "Completely" In some cases, "ob-" intensifies the meaning of the root word. obtain: To fully grasp or hold something. obfuscate: To make something completely unclear or confusing. obdurate: Stubborn and unyielding, "thoroughly" hardened in one's stance. Variations: The prefix "ob-" can sometimes appear as "oc-", "op-", or "of-" before certain consonants (e.g., occur, oppose, offer). Etymology: "Ob-" comes from Latin, where it had similar meanings. Nuances: The exact meaning of an "ob-" word can depend on the specific context and the root word it's attached to. Expanding Your Vocabulary Root Exploration: Look up the root words that are combined with "ob-" (e.g., "tain" in obtain, "fuscate" in obfuscate). Understanding the root will illuminate the full meaning of the word. Contextual Clues: Pay attention to how "ob-" words are used in sentences and texts. This will help you grasp their specific connotations. Word Lists: Use online resources or dictionaries to find lists of words containing "ob-". This can be a fun way to expand your vocabulary. Memory Palace Location: Imagine a bustling city street. "Obstruct" (Against/In the way):: A giant, overflowing garbage dumpster has been placed smack-dab in the middle of the street. It's completely obstructing traffic. Cars are honking, people are detouring, and a cyclist is trying to squeeze past but is struggling. The dumpster is bright orange, making it obvious (another "ob-" word!) that it's causing a problem. A sleek, futuristic drone suddenly descends and, with a precise laser beam, vaporizes the overflowing garbage from the dumpster. The street is instantly clear. The drone has obviated the need for anyone to move the dumpster manually. Traffic flows smoothly again. Here, "ob-" suggests "against" in the sense of "removing" or "counteracting" a problem. The drone's action has obviated (made unnecessary) the previous need to deal with the obstruction. Visualize the clean, efficient removal to remember this meaning. A group of protesters has arrived at the street, holding signs and chanting. They are opposing the city's plan to build a new highway through the neighborhood. They stand opposed to the construction workers who are trying to clear the area (another "ob-" related concept: "obstruct," remembering the earlier example). The protesters are very vocal and determined. "Oppose" clearly demonstrates the "against" meaning of "ob-". The protesters are actively standing against the proposed highway. Visualize their passionate demonstration to solidify the meaning. Narrative: The overflowing dumpster obstructed the street. The drone obviated the need to move it. Now, the protesters oppose the new highway, adding another layer of conflict to the scene. The street is becoming a stage for various "ob-" related actions and concepts. #MemoryPalace, #VocabularyBuilding,#MnemonicDevice, #EnglishLanguage, #WordNerd, #ObPrefix, #Oppose, #Obstruct ,#Obviate, #LanguageLearning, #VisualLearning ,#StudyTips, #MemoryTechniques, #Education ,#Etymology, #WordOfTheDay, #Vocabulary, #LearningHacks, #BrainTraining,

Grandpa Bill Asks: 1: What's your preferred way to learn – visual, auditory, or kinesthetic? 2: What's the one subject or skill you'd love to master with a supercharged memory? Let's break down how to create and record the "J" memory palace for Janissary, focusing on the practical aspects of drawing it out. The "J" Memory Palace: Javelin & Hagia Sophia The Location: Hagia Sophia, Istanbul. This is your mental "room" or location within your larger "Janissary" palace. The Object: A giant, gleaming javelin. It's not just any javelin; it's oversized, perhaps made of gold, and emits a shimmering light. The Action: The javelin is piercing the Hagia Sophia's dome.

Grandpa Bill's Grunts & Groans @billholt8792  Edgar Allan Poe-Poetic Profundity: Unraveling the Dark Genius of Edgar Allan Poe "Welcome back, fellow seekers of the strange and the sublime! Today, we delve into the enigmatic world of Edgar Allan Poe, a literary luminary whose tales continue to captivate and confound. Poe's works, often steeped in darkness and despair, possess a profound depth that transcends mere entertainment. His ability to explore the darkest corners of the human psyche and the supernatural realm has made him a timeless figure in the literary world. Let's take a closer look at some of his most iconic works: The Raven: This haunting poem, with its repetitive "Nevermore," delves into themes of loss, grief, and madness. Poe masterfully employs alliteration and assonance to create a mesmerizing rhythm that mirrors the narrator's descent into despair. The Tell-Tale Heart: This chilling tale explores the psychological torment of guilt and the fragility of the human mind. Poe's use of first-person narration allows us to experience the narrator's descent into madness firsthand. The Fall of the House of Usher: This gothic masterpiece delves into themes of decay, madness, and the disintegration of the human psyche. Poe's vivid descriptions and atmospheric setting create a sense of dread and foreboding. Beyond their surface-level horror, these works offer profound insights into the human condition. Poe's characters are often driven by irrational fears, obsessive desires, and a longing for the unattainable. Through their struggles, we can gain a deeper understanding of ourselves and the world around us. So, join me as we explore the depths of Poe's genius and uncover the hidden meanings behind his most famous works. Let's unravel the mysteries of the macabre and discover the profound truths that lie beneath the surface." #EdgarAllanPoe, #DarkPoetry, #LiteraryAnalysis, #GothicLiterature, #Psychoanalysis, #TheRaven ,#TheTellTaleHeart, #TheFallOfTheHouseOfUsher, #Podcast, #YouTube, #GrandpaBill ,#bhsaleskennelkelpholistichealinghour, Poe masterfully employs alliteration and assonance to create a mesmerizing rhythm that mirrors the narrator's descent into despair.

Understanding the Concept: A memory palace, or method of loci, is a memory technique that involves associating information with specific locations in a familiar place. By linking abstract concepts to vivid visual images, you can enhance memory recall. Using Poe's Works to Enhance Your Memory Palace: Given Poe's mastery of atmosphere and imagery, his works can be a powerful tool for creating a memorable and evocative memory palace.

DL Moody said, “Where one man reads the Bible, a hundred read you and me. “ Reading this quote was like having cold water splashed in my face. What are people reading when they see me, speak to me, hear me talk? The reality that others can see, and know the Word of God through someone else, and come to know Him through seeing us live as a witness to Him and the truth of the Word of God, ignites in me a greater desire to read, and understand the Bible. If I'm to be a living testimony of His Word then I need to know it. The only way to do that is to study it. In this week's episode of The Woman Inspired Podcast I'm sharing “Easy, applicable Bible study tips”. If you have difficulty setting time aside for Bible study or even comprehending why in the world it's so important, then please tune in. This episode includes practical, easy to follow tips to setting yourself up for successful, consistent and realistic Bible study goals.   For more encouragement, Biblical insight, testimony, humor and inspiration, tune in to The Woman Inspired Podcast!

1L strategy coach Angela Vorpahl returns to Thinking LSAT to discuss five common but misguided pieces of advice for incoming law students. She explains why these conventional 1L strategies fall short and suggests more effective alternatives. LSAT Demon LSAT Demon iOS App LSAT Demon Daily Watch Episode 454 Thinking LSAT YouTube LSAT Demon YouTube 3:08 - Class Prep vs. Exam Prep - Law professors insist that students should thoroughly read each assigned case. But reading every line of every case takes a huge amount of time. Angela advises students to invest their time in study methods that have a greater impact on their final grade. 20:15 - Note-Taking Strategies - Research suggests that students who take notes by hand might retain more information than students who type their notes. But for Angela's preferred method of note-taking, handwriting notes simply isn't fast enough. 33:05 - Study Supplements - Some law school traditionalists vilify study supplements like hornbooks, and they label students who use them as lazy. But these supplements aren't shortcuts; they're vital study tools—especially when professors routinely fail to teach the material in a straightforward way. 46:33 - Outlining Is Not Enough - A good outline may be necessary to succeed on law school exams, but it's not sufficient. Angela describes the extra study step that students should take after outlining. 56:21 - IRAC - “Issue, Rule, Application, and Conclusion” (IRAC) has long been the popular structure for legal analysis in law school. But Angela argues that IRAC misses the most important part of how students score points on final exams. 1:07:28 - Intermediate Conclusions - Don't worry too much about identifying intermediate conclusions. Focus on what the argument says. 1:16:26 - Academic Suspension - Nathan and Ben follow up on last week's story about an applicant who wants to remove an academic suspension from their transcript. 1:18:46 - Word of the Week - Halo Top is execrable.
