When you have loads of assignments and exam preparation, studying just in class doesn’t cut it. However, studying alone may also not be sufficient since you might have so many queries. Not to mention, studying yourself can become boring pretty fast.

So, the ideal solution is to plan a group study session with your peers beyond the classroom. Not only will all your confusions and queries be cleared but you can complete your study in a more interactive and fun way.

To help you get started, here are 5 easy steps to plan an awesome group study session Beyond the Classroom.

Step 1: Set a date and time

Planning ahead
Planning ahead (Beyond the Classroom)

First and foremost, set a date and time that works for everyone in the group. To ensure that all your peers can attend, plan the session at least a few weeks in advance. This will give all plenty of time to adjust their schedules.

Additionally, advance planning will help you to have the flexibility if something unexpected pops up. For example, if one of your peers gets sick or you have an impromptu mock test, you can postpone the date without running out of time.

Step 2: Choose a comfortable study spot

After the date and time is established, it’s time to choose a study spot. Consider the group’s size and needs when selecting a spot. It should be big enough to accommodate everyone, have access to necessary supplies and provide a comfortable and distraction-free environment.

Libraries are often a great choice for group study sessions, as they are typically quiet and offer plenty of resources. However, a secluded cafe or a friend’s house can also be a nice spot. It would be a place beyond the classroom. The change of scenario will make it more fun and enjoyable.

Step 3: Make an agenda

Creating agenda (Beyond the Classroom)

Creating an agenda is key to having an effective group study session beyond the classroom. It will help everyone to stay on task, prevent the group from getting off track, and make sure all of you are on the same page.

The agenda should include topics to be discussed, any assignments or tasks that need to be completed and a timeline of when each topic should be addressed. You can also prioritise the tasks and put a person in charge for each task. That way everyone will be involved and more engaged on the tasks at hand.

Step 4: Set ground rules

Setting rules
Setting rules (Beyond the Classroom)

While you can all have your fun and play, setting rules is a MUST to keep you all grounded. Consider the group’s size, focus and goals for the session when establishing ground rules.

You can start with rules such as banning phones, setting a time limit for each topic discussed and having an open-door policy for questions and ideas. You can also restrict any alcohol or beverages that can derail everyone’s focus.

Step 5: Take breaks

Finally, it is important to remember to take breaks during the group study session. It will give you all a chance to recharge, refresh and come back to the session with a renewed energy and focus.

Try to plan at least one break for every hour of studying. This can be used to grab a snack, take a short walk or just take a few minutes to relax and stretch. You can also play short games or quizzes to stretch your brain muscles before going back to your study.

With these 5 steps, you are well on your way to planning a successful group study session! Take the time to plan ahead to ensure that the session is productive and beneficial to everyone.
