WHY GROUP STUDY
Group Study on study is essential for effective learning. In group Study learning is shared and student participating in discussion are benefited. When you study a topic, discuss it with your classmates. Tell your classmates or friend that you will discuss about a particular topic tomorrow so that they can prepare the topic for tomorrow’s discussion. In discussion every student has his turn to talk. Try to be polite and friendly in discussion. Participating in group Study has the many benefits. Let us explain some of the main benefits 

IT ENHANCES YOUR LEARNING – YOU LEARN MORE.
Your friend may have learnt a topic well comparatively. He may have picked up some important points from the topic which you may have not. When you discuss it with him, you learn these points as well. Similarly you may have learnt some points in a topic which he may have missed, so he learns it in discussion. In this way the learning is shared and you are benefitted.

DISCUSSION GENERATES GOOD QUESTIONS – HELPS IN PREPARATION FOR EXAM.
When you discusses about a topic with your friend in group, you can freely ask any question which you have in your mind about any point in the topic and you get the answer. Similarly they ask questions. Different minds discussing about a topic, generates good questions and try to find their answers. These are the conceptual questions which are asked in the exams. In this way, Group Study helps in preparation for exams by generating conceptual question and finding their answers.

IT SHOWS YOU YOUR WEAKNESS – IT IMPROVES YOU.
Until you don’t know about your weaknesses, you cannot improve. In group Study you come to know that in which areas you are weak and you need to focus more on them to improve.

IT RECTIFIES YOUR MISTAKES.
You may learn something wrong. You may make a wrong concept about a topic which you think is correct. When you share it in discussion, you come to know that it is wrong. In this way, your wrong concepts are rectified. If you don’t discusses it group, you may write this wrong concept even in exam and get less marks for it.

I suggest my students to do group study. Sometimes I make all of them sit in a circle and study like we play 'pillow passing'. They enjoy it very much.

Group study is really helpful, but if you do a little homework on the specific subject before sitting in a group, definitely you'll be much more benefited.
