Volume 2 Chapter 59 The Amount Of Time You Can Concentrate On Studying Is Different For Each Person.
Well, we have a study session after school the next day.
"Ugh, I can't seem to remember anything..."
Shinonome looks exhausted as she slumps over her desk. It seems like everyone is struggling with social studies, and the studying isn't going well.
"Nihon, it's so hard..."
Kokonoe-san also doesn't look like she's making much progress with her studies.
"Hmm, it seems like both of you find social studies challenging. So, should we try changing our study methods a bit?"
Shinonome-san asks as she looks up.
"What kind of study method?"
I answer the question.
"It's called the Pomodoro Technique. It involves alternating short periods of work and rest to improve concentration and productivity, and effectively manage time to work efficiently."
"Do you repeat work and breaks in a short time?"
"Generally, it's said that human concentration lasts for about 45 minutes, and actually, school classes are also 45 minutes long. However, with the Pomodoro Technique, you do several rounds of 25 minutes of work and 5 minutes of break to increase work efficiency. However, it seems that humans can only concentrate for 15 minutes when it's really tough work, so Shinonome-san and Kokonoe-san, let's study for 15 minutes and then take a 5-minute break. After repeating this 15-minute study four times, take a 30-minute break to properly rest your brain. However, during the break, make sure to rest your brain properly without looking at your smartphone. If other people think that would increase efficiency, it might be worth trying."
I say that, and after thinking for a bit, Saikachi-san says,
"Well, then, I'll try that method too."
"Yeah, if you try it and still think it's better to concentrate for 45 minutes, you can go back to that too."
"Okay, I'll try that too."
"I'd like to do that too."
Apparently, Nakagaito and Namiki-san want to try Pomodoro Technique.
And Shibata-san said timidly.
"Sorry, I'll just concentrate for 45 minutes like before. I feel like if I study too much, I won't be able to make any progress."
"If you like history like Shibata-san, I think it would be a good idea to spend more time studying. It seems that humans can concentrate for up to 90 minutes if it's something they enjoy or are interested in."
"Oh, yes. I think that's how things are."
In fact, when Shibata-san was so addicted to Touken Ranbu, she was so absorbed in the game that she even cut back on her sleep hours.
"Okay, I'll set the timer for 15 minutes. Those who try it should stop there and take a break."
When I said that, Shinonome-san answered cheerfully.
"Yeah, I think I can manage for 15 minutes."
With that, I'll set the timer and focus on studying until it rings.
Then, 15 minutes pass and the timer goes "beep beep beep."
"Alright, everyone except Shibata-san, let's take a 5-minute break."
Shinonome-san says with a smile, putting down her pencil,
"I did my best!"
And Kokonoe-san is also smiling.
"I think I can make some progress with this, desu."
"Well, unless it's right after a meal or lack of sleep, 15 minutes should be enough to concentrate on most tasks."
I said, and Saikachi-san said.
"This method seems to work well for subjects that I find a little challenging."
"Yeah, especially for subjects that mainly involve memorization."
For subjects like Japanese and English, where it's better to repeat and understand the intended meaning of the text, it might be better to go a little longer.
"So, in that case, how about 25 minutes of studying followed by 5 minutes?"
"Rather, it might be better to look at the range of texts you read and then decide based on the number of times you read. If you decide poorly based on your time, you might end up with an unfinished dragonfly."
"I see, that's true."
Therefore, by carefully setting their time and repeating studying and resting, Shinonome-san and Kokonoe-san's social studies studies seemed to have progressed.
Shibata-san usually studies for 45 minutes and then takes a 15-minute break and still stays focused, so I think it's also important to be interested in something and whether it's fun or boring.
