With the advent of AI like ChatGPT being used to trivialize the metrics we use for contemporary scholastic success the conversation has shifted to teaching students instead how to learn.
I don’t think I have ever been taught that but I want to learn. So, how does one learn? Hope its not about reading stamina, because if so I have none.

Hmm well retaining facts is best done via being well rested, in a room with bright light and very good ventilation, with a small amount of food in you made from whole foods, with plenty of water. This means you are energized and alert.
When you study, take a ten minute break every hour to wander around. Not use a phone, take a break from close looking and go for a walk or something.
After you study, do not use alcohol or drugs and do go to sleep on time which allows your body to move it to long term storage. Studying followed by drug use and sleep deprivation is less valuable.
In general, keep fit, which improves blood flow to the brain, eat well, get enough sleep.
If you need to know something really well, read the material, let it float around then reread it right before testing and your brain will form very strong recall of info for a short period.
