Study Habits: A Way towards Life Skills Development

Abstract

This is the globalizalion and in this era the concept of Education is becoming more and more vast As we know Gandhiji's saying that "By Education, I mean all round drawing out of the best in child and man-body, mind and spirit. Literacy is not the end of Education nor means whereby man and woman can be educated. Literacy in itself is no Education." (Aggarwal, 1981,p7) So the main aim of Education is to bring all round development of a child which will enable him to face this competitive world. All round development can be easily done by inculcating good habits and developing good skills of a child. Family members and teachers can easily work on this task. If from childhood good habits and skills are developed it will be better to cope with the situation arises during secondary level of schooling of a child. Training and learning skills are major factors which help students to get success in their lives. The acquisition, integration, organization can be facilitated by the use and practice of effective study skills, Development of proper and favorable study habits will lead the students to the development of life skills.
