CAUSES OF NOT BEING ABLE TO ASSIMILATE EASILY
Assimilating while reading deals with the brain which implies that the more stress you give the brain, the more the brain weakens in assimilating. Technically we can say the Brain is like a storehouse for the human being, if it is filled up, there would not be space for saving your information.
The major causes are :
1. MUSIC
Nowadays, 80% of the world listens to music and will remember each words and lines of the music but to assimilate like four (4) to five(5) lines it becomes problem, people who often listen to music are liable to not being able to assimilate easily and it also not applicable to some people. Listening to music fills up the brain capacity and the remaining capacity would not be able to allow the person store much information.
2. OVER-READING
Over-reading is not good because you will not allow the brain to rest and if the brain is overstressed you can lose your information’s. In other to avoid overstressing of the brain, after reading for more than two(2) to three(3) hours, just try to rest for about an hour or 30 minute to keep the brain calm and then you can continue
3. FUN
Fun in a student life should be limited; having too much fun makes you to lose some information that was stored in your brain. For example you read a note on Monday; you went to a party on Tuesday, if they ask you to put down what you read on Monday, you would have lost some lines.
SOLUTIONS TO ASSIMILATING QUICKLY
1. FULL CONCENTRATION
Assimilating easily deals with full concentration on what you are reading, you must be focused on what you are reading not thinking of something else. Full concentration helps a lot in assimilating.
2. FULL DEVOTION
This is done by fixing time when there is no time to do something. In devoting your time try to avoid looking others when they are having fun, try to control yourself.
3. Focus
While reading it is better to focus on a particular topic or aspect for better understanding, if done you can also form a note on your own because you would have understand the topic fully and then move to the next topic and also repeat the process.
4. Keyword
Try to remove keywords from what you read for easy remembrance of the line.
If the keyword is created by the reader, it will be difficult for the reader to forget what he created which helps him to remember easily
5. Environment
For better assimilation, it is better to locate a quiet environment, it could be a library. The essence of picking a quiet location is that you will be able to concentrate on what you are doing without any disturbance.
