Gathering skills’ are important study skills. What do you understand by the term ‘gathering skills’?

Study skills may be defined as skills which help learners to study more effectively. Study skills enable the learners to ‘learn to learn’. Thus independent learning takes place and the learner learns ‘how to learn’

The process of meaningful study undergoes mainly four operations/processes:

1. Perception (perceive what is relevant or significant)

2. Comprehension (understanding in the short term memory)

3. Retention (the comprehended material enters long term memory)

4. Retrieval (getting into use whenever needed)

In other words the learner should first perceive what is relevant to his/her needs and select only those areas which are important. Next he/she has to read or comprehend the material. Comprehension constitutes an important stage in the process of learning. Whatever the learner understood may be easily being forgotten hence the learner has to make special efforts to retain what he/she has learnt. As the part of that learners adopt different means towards retention. Very weak students blindly memorize the whole lesson, and brighter learners try to keep short notes which could be paraphrased later. Retrieval involves retrieving the stock of information and knowledge whatever learnt at the time of need.

There are three types of study skills corresponding to the four operations in the process of study. They are:

1. Gathering skills (Perception, Comprehension)

2. Storing skills (Retention)

3. Retrieval skills (Retrieval)

These are also known as reference skills and enable a learner to gather information as quickly as possible. This requires two sub-skills: locating and comprehending information.
