Explanation:

The phrase "making personal connections" in academic contexts means to relate the ideas of a piece of material such as books, poems, essays or articles to one's personal experience and informational background. This mental process leads to a more successful and meaningful learning process as you can connect external ideas to personal ideas and experiences which helps you to reflect on those ideas and remember a text or work better.
