With Focus Timer, you can undertake short, focused bursts of study to learn more efficiently and effectively.
How does it work?
Getting started with the Focus Timer is easy:
-
Open up an Event and head to the top-right of your screen: here you’ll find the new Focus Timer button. (Note: this is greyed out while recording).
-
Click the Focus Timer button, and select how long you would like to study for - this can be 10, 15 or 30-minutes - and hit ‘Start Timer’.
-
Once clicked, a timer will appear in the top-right indicating how long is left in your current session - time to get studying!
-
When the timer finishes counting down, a short summary will appear showing your activity from the session.
-
Not quite finished? Simply start the timer again and keep studying - but don’t forget to take a break!
What can it be used for?
Focus Timer is a great way of introducing structure to your studies and making the most of your time. By focusing your attention on one subject at a time, this will help you to learn more efficiently and effectively during your study sessions. You will also be creating more detailed study resources which will benefit you long-term learning!
