If you have a lot to read and your eyes are tired, try using the speech function on your HP Packard Envy HD 15.6\u201d Touch Convertible Laptop<\/a> from Buydig.com to help you read it all aloud. Just right click and use start speaking<\/em>. You can also do this for essays to listen to what you\u2019ve written and check for any errors!<\/p>\n

If you have a bunch of things to delete, try using Ctrl+Backspace to delete a whole word to the left of the cursor.<\/p>\n

Use WordHippo<\/strong> to find similar alternatives or opposite words for more variety in your essays. This app also helps you find words that you can\u2019t think of, but can describe.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

If you have a quote for a book but don\u2019t know the page number for a citation, try searching it in Google Books<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

If you ever accidentally close an important tab for studying just press CTrl+Shift+T and it will reopen your last closed tab.<\/p>\n

Turn down your screen brightness and use power saving mode for extra laptop battery.<\/p>\n

You can also use the Onetab <\/strong>extension on chrome to grey out tabs that eat up your battery.<\/p>\n

Use apps like Keep Me Out<\/strong> on your mobile devices and Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 8 inch Wi-Fi Tablet<\/a> from Buydig.com to stop you from procrastinating on sites. It basically blocks you from going there for a certain period of time.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Download the app PhotoMath<\/strong>.\u00a0 This app lets you take pictures of math problems, and teaches you the correct steps to solve the problem.<\/p>\n

Use the concept of spaced repetition to learn things\u00a0forever<\/em>. It’s the idea of reviewing terms, definitions, or formulas regularly so you’ll remember them in the long term, not just for the next 24 hours. While sitting in front of your LG monitor<\/a>, you can create flashcards using Anki<\/strong>, highlight ideas from any website with Hibou<\/strong>, learn new languages with Readlang<\/strong>. You can even find subject-specific apps like Firecracker<\/strong> or Brainscape<\/strong> which offers a variety of pre-packaged subjects.<\/p>\n

Want to learn a concept in a hurry? Google the subject matter + “filetype:ppt” to find free lecture slides online.<\/p>\n

Forgot your textbook at home? Google the name of the textbook + “filetype:pdf” and you might find it online.<\/p>\n

Desmos.com<\/strong> is a free online graphing calculator you can access from anywhere.<\/p>\n

Listen to ambient noise or natural sounds for maximum productivity. Noizio<\/strong> is a simple app that lets you create a special blend of ambient sounds such as “blue whales,” “deep space,” and “October rain.”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nWhen you can\u2019t find the answer by Googling, go to \/r\/HomeworkHelp.<\/strong><\/p>\n

With these helpful hacks, you\u2019ll be ready to face anything this school year throws your way.<\/p>\n
