I’ve been learning things for a long while but I still don’t have a reliable set-in-stone technique for getting things into my head.

    Taking note longhand, be it during a lecture or reading a book or a paper. Reviewing said notes later that day, or at most the following day. Sleep over it. Re-read notes (edit: more than one time)

    Writing longhand being key here, as far as I’m concerned. None of the other methods were as efficient.

    Edit: as suggested already: remove noise, aka distractions and that should include phone, computer, music, whatever is actually distracting you from studying. Back at uni, I used to study at the library because my room was really too noisy and because I had all my brushes and paint tubes available and would always be tempted to paint instead of studying ;)
