Hábitos de estudios como estrategia para facilitar el aprendizaje de los estudiantes de educación media

Abstract

Study habits are perceived as all those actions that, through the constant practice of activities, allow for improved learning and academic performance in students. Therefore, they are considered consistent routines or guidelines that promote the acquisition of skills aimed at achieving an education in accordance with established standards. Consequently, they foster intellectual work in order to empower students toward profound assimilation, transformation, and creation, aspects inherent to the educational process. Based on these considerations, the purpose of this article is to analyze the elements that define study habits as a fundamental strategy for learning acquisition in secondary school students. Methodologically, a documentary study with a bibliographic design is undertaken to conduct inquiries and gather information on the topic and examine the foundations that allowed for its analysis. The results achieved highlight that study habits counteract the various situations that impede the achievement of meaningful learning because they are flexible, adaptable, and applicable according to each student's situation. It is concluded that its application requires specifying aspects such as study time and location, in order to promote mental concentration to achieve the cognitive process and the procedures necessary for this purpose, but above all, to prevent the poor organization of activities that undermine the academic process. Therefore, the need to promote these practices in students is emphasized, as they ensure concentration and academic performance.
