4. Anytime is learning time.
　　第四步：隨時(shí)都是學(xué)習(xí)時(shí)間！
　　Take full advantage of the Internet, iTunes, and various mobile devices, not to mention good old-fashioned books and magazines. Learn during “dead time”. Listen in your car, on the train, or while jogging. Have your learning with you while waiting in the doctor's office, or listen while checking out at the supermarket. Anytime is learning time. Remember, you are learning through exposure, not by nailing things down. It is more like moisture accumulation in a cloud, rather than building a brick wall.
　　一定要好好利用互聯(lián)網(wǎng)、iTunes和其他多種移動(dòng)便攜設(shè)備，更不用說書籍和雜志這樣的傳統(tǒng)學(xué)習(xí)資源啦!把那些“死時(shí)間”也都利用起來：開車、坐火車、或者慢跑時(shí)都可以聽課。在醫(yī)院排隊(duì)、或是超市等結(jié)賬的時(shí)候你有沒有在聽課呢？其實(shí)隨時(shí)都可以是學(xué)習(xí)時(shí)間。記住，你要與學(xué)習(xí)材料耳鬢廝磨來學(xué)習(xí)，而不是痛苦地一點(diǎn)一點(diǎn)去啃材料。這個(gè)過程更像是一朵云的形成，是水汽的一點(diǎn)點(diǎn)累計(jì)；而不像砌一面墻那樣，把磚堆上去就好。
　　5. Be a multimedia learner.
　　第五步：做一個(gè)多媒體學(xué)習(xí)者
　　The more varied your learning content, and the more varied the ways in which you learn, the clearer the puzzle will become. Different learning activities suit different people, at different times of the day. Vary your activities in order to keep your interest level up. Even if listening and reading work best for you, treat yourself to the odd video lecture, or get-together with other learners. This will renew your batteries.
　　你學(xué)習(xí)的內(nèi)容越多、來源越多，你就會對知識點(diǎn)越清楚。不同的人適合不同的學(xué)習(xí)方法，每天的學(xué)習(xí)“興奮點(diǎn)”也不錯(cuò)。所以最好能找到自己的一套學(xué)習(xí)規(guī)律來保持自己的“興奮度”。即便聽和讀是你習(xí)慣的學(xué)習(xí)方式，也要讓自己試著去聽聽看視頻的演講、或是跟其他學(xué)習(xí)者交流。這會讓你重新充滿精力！
　　6. Join learning communities.
　　第六步：加入學(xué)習(xí)社區(qū)
　　The “loneliness of the distance learner” is a thing of the past. Join a learning community on the web, where members share their knowledge and experience. Search for the communities that suit your interests and learning style. You will find encouragement, advice and stimulus from fellow learners, as well as from tutors, teachers and coaches. In these communities, you can measure your progress against your own goals, or compare your experience with that of other learners. You can even teach and help others, which is a great way to learn.
　　“遠(yuǎn)程教育是孤獨(dú)的”概念已經(jīng)成為過去?，F(xiàn)在你可以加入一個(gè)網(wǎng)絡(luò)學(xué)習(xí)社區(qū)，和大家一起分享知識與經(jīng)驗(yàn)。找一個(gè)符合你興趣和學(xué)習(xí)方式的社區(qū)。在那里你可以從其他學(xué)習(xí)者身上找到鼓勵(lì)、建議和動(dòng)力，同時(shí)也有導(dǎo)師、老師和教練給你提供支持。在這些社區(qū)中，你能更好地檢驗(yàn)自己的學(xué)習(xí)進(jìn)度、也可以和其他學(xué)習(xí)者競爭。甚至，你還可以教授或幫助其他人，這的確是一個(gè)學(xué)習(xí)的好方法！
