Observation: An Amazing Skill For Students

Observation is a trick or method to observe someone or something closely with full attention and focus. Observation is collecting any information from the primary source. Every time we sit in class or at home our parents and teachers mostly ask us to pay attention, listen carefully or observe keenly what is going on. It is because it is the major source for the gathering of facts and primary source if you want to learn something. Observation skill has its benefits for everyone and similarly for students also. Observation makes a student more attentive in class and because of that child can grasp more and able to question more for clearing his her confusion. By observing the surrounding keenly a student get more insight about the situations and it is easier to decide for him. He or she can analyze and solve the situations in a better way.

Many times it is hard to collect the data directly at that time also observation proved itself as great help because it opens up many solutions which one can use. It is clear how amazing this skill is so it is important to cater to it. So ways by which we can improve our observation skill are-

• Know the subject first because you can observe all the aspects clearly if you know of that. So it is important to gain knowledge to become familiar with the subject first before observing it.

• Try to slow down the fast-running days only after that you can pay attention to those minute facts which are not visible to you in fast-running life. If you do things in a hurry then they can not become that perfect as they have to be or not get the full effort you can put the effort into them.

• Try to cut out those things from the situation which can distract you like mobile and laptop. Because once you get distracted you forget what you are observing and you have to start all over again. And last but not least.

• Meditation is a great way to improve observation skills as proven in many types of research by researchers.

Observation can make your life a bit easier and happier. So try to give a chance to yourself and improve this skill to lead a life without any confusion.
