Things will be different to study while in space. Think of the usual subjects you study in school right now. Next, think about what is easy and hard for you. You try and learn these things when you study here on Earth. Now think of how it would be in zero-gravity on a trip to space, living on Mars, or spending time in a lunar colony. Don't you think that even the harder subjects you try to learn about here on Earth would be so exciting when you see how they relate in a space environment that you won't even think about how hard they are? The excitement of new space-related information would motivate you to try even harder. Your crewmates would be there waiting to help, too, with a good discussion about whatever it is you need to understand better. I am convinced that you would have so much fun learning new things that nothing would stop you!
