The study time can be broken down, roughly, into the following segments.
-
One hour. Prepare (before the lab) and complete the lab assignment, ideally on the lab day.
-
One to two hours. Review slides. Read textbook, if necessary.
-
Three to four hours. Complete the homework assignments.
-
One hour. Attend office hours. Discuss on Discord.
-
Do additional reading (textbook, reference books, etc.), if you have time.
This is for students who have good learning and problem solving skills and attend lectures/lab sessions. Very often, students missing lectures and lab sessions need more time to catch up.
