Study with people. If there is a group of friends or class mates with you, everyone can police one another on the staying on task bit. I've done this before and it works. We study, we break, then we study again.

Both of these are really good ideas, esp. if the reading and/or class topic is quite boring.
I used to study w/ friends (who were also enrolled in the same class as I was). We would goof off every so often, but otherwise get a ton of studying done.
If I was studying alone, many times I went to Borders or another bookstore. I would use my headphones and listen to some upbeat instrumentals (such as acid jazz) to keep myself awake.
