Answer

Repetitive reading and writing and speaking would be a good way, and to do that or something that would help you are flash cards.  
Go to this website http://www.dragonmedia.us/programs/kana.swf to train yourself on hiragana/katakana

Answer

If you are talking about academic, language schools usually introduce hiragana first and then katakana and then kanji.
