  • Four useful online study tools

Studying through distance learning can be challenging, especially if you do not have a lot of time available. However, there are a number of online tools available that can help you discover useful shortcuts and assist with your productivity. Your time, your pace.

GoConqr

This online tool is especially useful for visual learners. You will be able to create mind maps, breaking down broad subjects into smaller topics. Mind maps are a proven method for aiding both memory and understanding. The GoConqr site also offers a number of other useful features, such as flashcards, self-created quizzes, note-taking facilities and a study planner.

Evernote

This popular application is useful for staying organised due to the fact that all of your information, notes and research will be gathered together in one place. The information can also be synced across a number of different devices, which aids accessibility. You will also be able to share content with other users and save relevant online sources of information.

StudyBlue

This website is all about collaboration as it connects students via shared subject areas and learning goals. You will be able to access and share study guides, flashcards and many other useful tools and resources. The site also offers multiple study modes and a wide-ranging content library. One unique feature is a self-assessment application that tracks your progress on a subject.

Marinara Timer

The aim of this site is to increase overall productivity by using the Pomodoro method of learning. This means that you work for 25 minutes at a time with a five-minute break. Marinara Timer also comes with a feature that allows you to customise your own personal timer with a number of fun sound effects. Research has shown that taking a short break whist studying increases overall focus and attention. Therefore, this site allows you to have set breaks without having to feel guilty for logging onto Facebook or other social media sites.

Oxbridge appreciates time is one of the major constraints when it comes to taking on anything new, thats why our courses have been specifically designed to be studied online, through distance learning. Now you can learn and progress yourself and you do not have to stick to the timetable of a college. You will study in your own time and at your own pace with a dedicated and expert tutor there if and when you need it.
