How to Teach Writing: 4 Methods for Generating Writing Ideas
4 Methods for Generating Writing Ideas 1. Brainstorming Brainstorming is a method which most writers are very familiar with. Whenever they receive a topic for their next piece of content, brainstorming helps them generate a list of examples related to the respective topic. What is more, brainstorming is an activity which can be also exercised in the group. There are many writers who prefer to meet other writers and create a list of topics during a brainstorming session. During a brainstorming activity, no idea is wrong. Especially when it is practiced in a group, even though some ideas are not very related to the topic in scope, they can be a good starting point for future ones. Furthermore, brainstorming challenges a writer’s brain to come with the best examples and ideas to create a unique article. However, is possible that this method won’t generate ideas from the first attempt. This is why the writer shouldn’t give up and keep exercising until he finds his inspiration.

How to Study More Efficiently
1. Change your environment. Always studying in the same place can get very distracting, even if it can get your mind "in the zone" in the meantime. Your family or dorm-mate might distract you, as well as the noises outside. The room might get too cramped (especially if you're stuck with a tiny dorm), or too hot. Check out your area to find different alternatives that might suit you better. Some examples include: a coffee shop, a library, outside, or if you aren't in a dorm, go to a different part of the house!
