To set a timer for studying, you can use the Pomodoro Technique. This method involves focused work periods followed by short breaks. Here's how to implement it, according to the reference material:
-
Add Tasks: Begin by listing the study tasks you want to accomplish today.
-
Estimate Pomodoros: Assign an estimated number of Pomodoros to each task. One Pomodoro equals 25 minutes of focused work.
-
Select a Task: Choose a task from your list to start working on.
-
Start Timer: Set a timer for 25 minutes and concentrate solely on the selected task.
-
Take a Break: When the timer rings, take a 5-minute break.
-
Iterate: Repeat steps 3-5 until you complete your tasks. It's generally recommended to iterate 3-5 times before taking a longer break.
This method helps maintain focus and productivity during study sessions.
