Where do you actually study from, the LMS itself or do you pull everything out first?

I've been thinking about this for a while now. Every semester I start out organized, and by week 5 I've got slides in Downloads, a couple files in Moodle I never opened, and notes spread across a few apps.

So basically I'm curious how other people handle it:

  • do you study straight from Moodle/Canvas/Brightspace or move everything somewhere else
  • have you ever missed a file a prof uploaded mid-week and found out right before the exam
  • for diagram-heavy classes, how do you actually study the diagrams
  • if you use an app for flashcards or notes, which one stuck past midterms

One thing that's helped me a bit: every Sunday I open each course page and check what's new for that week before I plan anything else. It takes like 10 minutes and I stopped getting surprised by random uploads.

What does your setup look like right now? And what's the most annoying part of it?
