  • Hi, I'm Thomas Frank, this is Crash Course Study Skills, and today you're going through planning and organization boot camp.

    嗨,我是 Thomas Frank ,這裡是學習技巧速成班,你今天要參加的是計劃和組織新兵訓練營

  • As a student, you have two modes, which I like to call Planning Mode and Robot Mode.

    作為一個學生,你有兩種模式,我喜歡稱為計畫模式和機器人模式

  • When you buckle down to study for a test, finish a homework assignment, or slog your way through a textbook chapter, you're in Robot Mode.

    當你定下來念書準備考試、完成作業或苦讀課本的章節,你就是在機器人模式

  • You're doing the work.

    你在工作

  • But robots can only do what they're programmed to do, and they need a well-maintained environment to work in.

    但是機器人只能做程式設定好的工作,而且他們需要適當的工作環境

  • I've seen videos of those robots in car factoriesthey're not working with dirty laundry or cheeseburger wrappers laying around.

    我有看過機器人在汽車工廠工作的影片 - 它們並不是穿著髒衣服或在滿地都是起司漢堡包裝紙的環境裡上班

  • Those places are pretty clean.

    那些地方是很乾淨的

  • So, if you want your Robot mode to work efficiently, you need to know how to program it and how to create a good environment for it to work in.

    所以如果你希望你的機器人模式工作得有效率,你需要知道如何設定程式,還有如何創造一個好的工作環境

  • [Theme Music]

    [主題音樂]

  • To get started, you're going to need an organizational system.

    首先,你會需要一個組織的系統

  • This is the framework for storing all information and resources that we'll need, and also for capturingideas.”

    這是一個我們用來儲存所有我們所需資訊和資源的架構,當然也可以用來捕捉「想法」

  • AnIdeais my term for any intangible information that you need to save and have easy access to later on.

    我所謂的「想法」是指任何不太具體,但你又可能需要存起來或是晚點再回顧的資訊

  • This can include: Tasks, Events, and actual, you know, ideasthings you want to write, createanything like that.

    這可以包含:工作、事件或是實際的想法 - 你想寫下或想出的好主意 - 或任何類似的東西

  • Additionally, you'll need a reliable way to store: Notes, Handouts, and any other output you create, be it writing, code, art, or cheeseburger wrapper origami.

    此外,你將需要一個可靠的儲存方式:筆記、講義還有任何其它創作,可以是寫作、代碼、藝術或是起用司漢堡包裝紙做的摺紙作品

  • So let's get down to business, defeat the huns, and create that system.

    所以讓我們言歸正傳,打敗匈奴 (迪士尼花木蘭歌詞梗) ,來開創這個系統吧

  • In my mind, any good organizational system worth its salt includes:

    我覺得任何好的組織系統都適合,包括:

  • A task manager A calendar

    任務管理器、行事曆

  • A note-taking system And Some kind of physical storage for paper documents

    記事系統以及放文件的實體收納櫃

  • Your task manager is the place where you record the stuff that you need to get done.

    你的任務管理器可以用來記錄需要完成的事項

  • It's what you look to when you get that sudden burst of motivation to do ALL THE THINGS,

    在你忙到爆,有一大堆事情要完成時會很需要它

  • and then wonder what all the things actually includes.

    你也會想了解到底有包含那些要做的事

  • You'll find a zillion different types of task managers out there, but there are only a few really essential features.

    你可以找到無數種的任務管理器,但其實只有幾項基本的特性

  • Pick a system that makes it easy to record a task's details and due date, and also make sure it's a snap to see what's coming due in the near future.

    選個能簡單記錄任務細節和到期日來用,還要確認它可以讓你一眼清楚明瞭接下來要到期的任務

  • The task manager that I personally use these days is called Todoist, and it ticks all those boxes.

    我個人最近使用的任務管理器叫做 Todoist ,它可以符合所有的需求

  • But there are lots of other options, including Trello, Microsoft To-Do, and Any.Do.

    但其他也有許多選擇,像是 Trello 、 Microsoft To-Do 還有 Any.Do

  • And if paper systems are more your speed, the classic day planner works just as well, as do more recent systems like the Bullet Journal method.

    而如果你更習慣紙本系統,可以選擇典型的日曆計畫本或是最近更常使用的系統,例如子彈筆記

  • In addition to tasks, you'll also need to remember upcoming events, and that's what your calendar is for.

    除了任務之外,你也需要記得接下來要碰到的事件,這就是你的行事曆可以派上用場的地方了

  • Now if you're using an old-fashioned paper planner, then your task manager and calendar might be one in the same

    如果現在你是用老派的紙本計畫本,那你的任務管理器和日曆應該是在同一本 -

  • but personally, I've always found that keeping the two separate works better for me.

    但我個人認為把這兩樣分開比較必較適合我

  • A calendarin my case, Google Calendar, but it might be Apple's Calendar app or something else for youis best for events that will happen at a specific time,

    以我的例子來說,行事曆像是 Google 行事曆,也可以是蘋果的行事曆或其它你能取得的應用程式,最適合一些特定時間會碰到的事件

  • while a task manager better handles things that have due dates, but that you can work on whenever you want before then.

    而任務管理器則較適合處理一些有期限,但你可以隨時執行的工作

  • Next, you need to figure out how to organize your notes.

    接下來,你得要弄清楚如何組織你的筆記

  • This is pretty simple for paper notes; you just use paper notebooks, and have a separate section or entire notebook for each class.

    這對於紙本筆記很單純;你只需要使用筆記本時把各主題分開,或乾脆每門課用一本筆記即可

  • But, for digital notes, you've got a lot of options.

    但對於數位筆記來說,你就有很多選擇了

  • Now, my app of choice has always been Evernote, but you can also take a look at Microsoft's OneNote,

    目前我使用的應用程式一直都是 Evernote ,但你也可以看看微軟的 OneNote

  • Apple's Notes (they're not always super imaginative with naming over there in Cupertino), or even Google Docs.

    蘋果的 Notes (他們那群在庫帕提諾的取名字也不是都那麼有創意) 或甚至使用 Google 文件

  • Lastly, make sure you've got some kind of physical storage for handouts, loose papers, and notebooks you've filled up.

    最後,請確認你有一些實際的儲存空間來存放你的講義、掉頁還有寫好的筆記本

  • Keeping one of those portable accordion folders in your bag works well when you're away from home, and it combos well with a file box for longer-term storage.

    在你出門時放個攜帶式風琴夾在背包裡是很好用的,可以和文件箱一起搭配使用,來儲存需長期保存的文件

  • Now once you've cobbled your system together, the next step is to develop an scheme for keeping it all organized.

    現在既然你已經把你的系統拼裝好了,下一步就是研發一個使用策略以維持其組織化

  • Now, sometimes a scheme is a plan for getting a bunch of small, yellow minions and attempting to steal the moon, and I definitely don't want to discourage you from doing that.

    談到所謂的策略,有時候可以是找來一大群黃色小小兵然後嘗試把月亮偷走,而我也沒有要阻止你這麼做的意思

  • But, in this context, it just means a set of rules and conventions that help to keep your system organized and useful.

    但是就目前來說,我們要的只是一些可以讓你系統維持組織化和可用性的規則和使用常規

  • If you choose a good scheme and stick to its rules every time you file away a new task, event, or handout,

    如果你選擇好的策略並每次都按其規則把新工作、事件或講義建檔

  • then the system will remain useful and you won't find yourself digging through your laundry basket at 3 a.m. looking for that essay you wrote on Hamlet.

    那麼這個系統會一直都很有用,你也不用擔心哪天要在凌晨三點挖你的洗衣籃,找你的哈姆雷特論文

  • Let's go to the Thought Bubble.

    我們來看看 Thought Bubble

  • Your computer's file structure is a great place to start, since so many people seem content to just let everything sit out on their desktop.

    整理你電腦的檔案結構是個很好的開始,因為很多人似乎只會把所有檔案都丟在桌面上

  • This is a pretty bad scheme to use, because you're eventually going to lose something.

    這是個糟糕的使用策略,因為遲早有一天會把某個檔案弄丟

  • Plus, all those files will be covering up that Hatsune Miku desktop background that I know you have.

    更何況,那些檔案會蓋住你的初音未來的桌布,我知道你有

  • So a better long-term solution is to create a folder structure that's well-defined, yet flexible.

    所以比較好的長期儲存方法是建立一個有良好的規劃又不失彈性資料夾結構

  • My recommendation is to set up your computer's folders like a tree with lots of branches.

    我的建議是把你電腦的資料夾設定的像棵有很多分支的樹

  • The top-level folder is the root of the tree, and that's where the scheme starts.

    最上層的資料夾是樹根,也是我們策略的起點

  • So, in this case, that folder will be calledCollege.”

    所以在這個情況下,那個資料夾名稱就是「大學」

  • From there, try to create branches that represent the different aspects of that part of your life.

    由此開始,試著創建代表你生活中各個不同面向的分支

  • The first logical branch point in this situation is the yearfreshman, sophomore, junior, senior.

    第一個分支點的創建邏輯是學年級 - 新鮮人、二年級、三年級、四年級

  • Then, as we go further and hit even more specific branch points, choose a logical category for drilling down to the next level.

    然後當我們繼續往下會碰到更多特定的分支點,選擇適當的邏輯做分類繼續鑽進下一層

  • And this changes depending on the type of information you're organizing.

    而這會依你要結構化的資訊類型而改變

  • Like, here, organizing by class makes sense.

    像是這裡,依課程來安排是很有道理的

  • We've got Sports Psychology, History of Rome, and Film Studies 101.

    我們有運動心理學、羅馬史還有 101 影片學習

  • And finally, add subfolders for big group projects.

    而最後,為團體大專案加入子資料夾

  • If you're constantly vigilant about saving your work in the correct folder, then this structure will ensure that it's always easy to find what you're looking for

    如果你時時小心謹慎地把你的工作內容存入正確的資料夾,那這個組織結構可以保證你隨時可以輕鬆地找到你要的東西 -

  • you just go down the branches that lead to it.

    你只要照分支往下就找到了

  • Thanks, Thought Bubble.

    謝啦!Thought Bubble

  • You can use a similar structure with your digital notes as well.

    對你的數位筆記也可以利用類似的結構

  • This is why I like using Evernote so much.

    這就是為什麼我那麼愛用 Evernote

  • Since everything is organized into Notebooks, and Notebooks themselves can be put into stacks, I can create a scheme that organizes my entire life.

    因為所有的東西都已經在它的記事本建構好了,而記事本又可以再放入記事本堆疊,我可以建立一個使用策略來整理我全部的生活所需

  • For instance, I've got a notebook stack for classes.

    例如說:我有一個放各門課程的記事本堆疊

  • Within it, every class I've ever taken gets its own notebook,

    其中,每門我修過的課都有它專門的記事本

  • and within those notebooks I can create notes for individual lectures, reading assignments, and other things.

    在那些記事本中,我可以替每一堂課、每個閱讀作業和其它所有的事項都建立記事

  • With your calendar, color-code events so you can see which part of your life they represent,

    配合你的行事曆,將各事件上色,你就能清楚看到各自代表你生活的什麼部分

  • like classes, extracurricular activities, and part-time job hours.

    像是課程、課外活動還有打工時段

  • If you use a paper planner, you can do this by using colored stickers or markers, as well.

    如果你使用紙本,你也可以使用彩色的貼紙或畫記

  • Lastly, create projects within your task manager for grouping similar tasks together.

    最後,在你的任務管理器內一併建立類似的群組工作專案

  • If you're a student, the most logical way to do this is to create a project for each class, as well as additional projects for anything else you've got going on.

    如果你是學生,最符合邏輯的方式是把每門課還有其它在進行的活動都各建一個專案

  • Now that you've chosen your tools and have your system set up, you need to make sure you'll actually use it, since putting things into your system properly takes work.

    到此為止你已經選好了你的工具,也建好了你系統,再來就要確實使用執行,畢竟把各個項目放進系統中也是個大工程

  • If your teacher assigns something in class, you eventually need to open your task manager and record all the details correctly.

    如果你的老師在課堂上指派某個作業,你之後有空都要把各項細節通通準確無誤地記錄到任務管理器裡

  • That takes more effort than simply tossing that handout into your backpack or telling yourself, “Eh, I'm sure I'll remember it.”

    雖然直接把講義丟進書包,或和自己說「呃...我確定我會記得的」會輕鬆得多

  • But if you don't do it, your system started to get unorganized and incompletewhich means your brain can't rely on it anymore.

    但如果你沒記錄,你的系統就會失去組織化和完整性 - 也代表不再值得你的腦信賴了

  • So you need to build the habit of using your system correctly all the time, even though it takes effort.

    所以你需要養成習慣隨時正確使用你的系統,即使要多花點心力

  • And one of the best ways to do that is to remove as much friction as you possibly can from the process.

    而要這麼做,最好的方法之一就是盡可能地移除此流程中的阻力

  • This is an idea that I like to call quick capturefiguring out the quickest, easiest way to file things into your system without compromising its structure.

    我喜歡稱這個想法為快速捕捉 - 找出最快最簡單的方法完整地將事項建檔

  • There are two main ways to go about practicing quick capture.

    有兩個主要方法來練習快速捕捉

  • The first is to commit to entering things into the correct place the moment they come up.

    第一個是一有新事項出現就立刻輸進正確的位置

  • For instance, if your teacher assigns homework in class, you'd immediately open your task manager and record all the details.

    譬如說,如果你的老師在課堂上指定作業,你立馬打開任務管理器把所有細節記錄進去

  • If you do choose to go this route, you can streamline things by choosing apps and tools that simplify the recording process.

    如果你選擇這個方法,你可以找一些應用程式或工具讓記錄過程更簡化流暢

  • A good example is Google Calendar's iPhone app, which lets you set the date, time, and location of an event just by typing them into the event's title.

    像是 Google 行事曆的 iPhone 應用程式,可以讓你輸入事項名稱後在裡面設定日期、時間和地點等細節

  • That's a lot quicker than tapping on each individual field.

    這比慢慢敲鍵盤輸入快多了

  • It also means eliminating any unnecessary features from your system;

    這也代表把所有不必要的步驟從系統中剔除了

  • while it might be cool that your to-do app can add priority levels to each task, you probably don't need them,

    雖然你的代辦事項應用程式如果可以列出各事項的優先順序很酷,但你可能不太需要

  • and they just add more friction to the process.

    也增加了一些不必要的負擔

  • The second option here is to use a daily note, which is a simple piece of notebook paper,

    第二個步驟是取張筆記紙當每日記事

  • or a note that's quickly accessible on your phone, where you record everything that comes up during the day.

    或是可以用你手機中可快速開啟的記事軟體,讓你可以把一天中的各種訊息記下來

  • This is a temporary holding place.

    這只是做暫存

  • At the end of each day, you need to move everything you've recorded to the correct place within your system.

    在每天結束時,你需要把它們都好好抄到你的系統內的正確位置

  • All right, so now we are ready to finally dig into the details of planning.

    非常好,所以現在我們終於可以來好好研究如何做計劃

  • Now, I like to view planning in two separate contexts: weekly and daily.

    我現在打算把做計劃分成兩種:週計畫和日計畫

  • The main purpose of your weekly planning session is to look at everything that's coming due during the upcoming week, as well as in the following one.

    週計畫的主要作用是看看接下來一兩週快到期的工作事項

  • I recommend doing this on Sunday;

    我建議可以在星期天做週計畫

  • that way, you'll be aware of everything that's coming up, and you'll have a rough idea of when you'll be able to work on it all based on what's already in your calendar.

    如此一來,你就能留意接下來有什麼事要辦,而參照你的行事曆的記錄後,也能對什麼時候有空去完成這些工作有個粗略的概念

  • However, there is also some long-term planning that should be done here.

    然而,也有些此時該做的長期計畫

  • First, if you've got an exam coming up in the next month, it's a good idea to look over everything that will be covered,

    首先,如果你下個月有個考試,那麼把所有要考的範圍都看一遍是個好主意

  • and then to schedule study sessions over the upcoming weeks to ensure you don't find yourself cramming right before it.

    接著安排接下來幾週的學習時間以確保考前不會焦頭爛額

  • If you've just been assigned a big project, you can similarly break that project down into small chunks and assign due dates to those chunks.

    如果你剛被指定一個大型專案,同樣地,你可以把這個專案分成幾個小部分,再分別訂定各自的期限

  • Think about other big events that might be coming up in your life as well.

    也可以想想其它生活中的重要事件

  • Maybe there's a scholarship deadline coming up, or a birthday you want to remember.

    也許有個獎學金申請期限快到了,或是有個人的生日你希望可以記得

  • If something comes to mind, add it to your system so you won't forget it.

    如果想到什麼事就把它記入你的系統,你就不會忘記了

  • In addition to planning out your week, you should also take a few minutes each day to create a daily plan.

    除了做週期畫之外,你也應該花幾分鐘做個日計畫

  • This is simply a list of the events you've got planned and the tasks you want to accomplish.

    這單純只是列下你已經規劃要做的事情或是想完成的任務

  • Now you can do this in the morning before you start school, or you can do it at night before you go to bed, which is what I prefer to do.

    你可以選擇在早上上學前做日計畫,或晚上睡前做,我自己比較偏好後者

  • As you create it, try to batch your tasks.

    當你這麼做時,試著批量處理你的工作

  • If you have a bunch of easy, low-energy tasks, or errands that require travel, plan ahead and combine them into one big maintenance session.

    如果你有很多簡單、不需太費力的工作,或是一些需要外出的雜事,請預先計畫,把它們合成一個例行公事項目來處理

  • Doing this will help you get them all done in a short, compact block of time, which in turn frees up lots of uninterrupted time that you can dedicate to your really challenging work.

    如此一來你可以找一小段時間把它們一次解決,也讓你有更多完整的時間來認真處理有挑戰性的工作

  • Finally, to keep your system running smoothly, choose one day per week to do a review session.

    最後,為了維持你的系統順利運作,每週挑一天來做個回顧

  • And if you want to be extra-efficient, you can just combine it with your weekly planning in order to get it all done in one fell swoop.

    而如果你想要更有效率,可以把這個步驟合併到你的週計畫一併完成

  • During this review session, you'll do a couple things.

    在回顧時要做幾件事

  • First, look over your plans and reflect on the past week.

    首先,檢查你的計畫以及檢討上一週的狀況

  • Compare what you planned to do with what actually got done, and if there's a gap between the two, try to figure out what caused it.

    比較你計畫要做的和你實際執行的狀況,如果發現有點差距,想辦法找出原因

  • Doing this can help you to pinpoint things that are hurting your productivitymaybe you were distracted a lot, or maybe you simply planned to do too much.

    這麼做可以幫助你找出損害你生產力的原因 - 也許是你太容易分心了或其實是你安排了太多事情要做

  • After that, go through your task manager and calendar.

    之後,檢查一下你的任務管理器和行事曆

  • If there are any tasks or events that need changes, make them.

    如果發現任何工作或事件需要調整就快點修正

  • This prevents what I like to callentropywhich is a term in thermodynamics that generally refers to how everything in the universe tends to move toward disorder and chaos.

    這樣可以預防所謂的「熵」,也就是在熱力學裡,宇宙易於傾向的無序混亂狀態

  • This is exactly what organizational systems tend to do as well, but by regularly bringing them back to order on a weekly basis, you can keep things from getting too chaotic.

    這也正是組織系統所容易崩壞的方向,但是經由每週規律的導正,你有辦法維持一定程度的穩定秩序

  • So now that you've got your system build and your planning habits in place, you're well equipped to tackle all the work your classes are going to throw at you in the most effective way possible.

    所以現在你已經建立起了系統,計畫習慣也就位了,你已經準備好要以最有效率的方式來解決課堂上交付的各項任務

  • Additionally, you can rest assured knowing that nothing will slip your mind or fall through the cracks, as long as you keep those habits up.

    還有,你終於可以高枕無憂,因為只要維持住這個好習慣,沒什麼會再被忘記或遺漏了

  • That's all for now, so thanks for watching, and I'll see you next time.
