Reflection :

This is saying that you should choose the right even, when no one is doing it because this will influence someone to make the right chose. This is also saying that the popular things people do will not always lead to a better tommorow.

9. … don’t cram for exams. Successful students know that divided periods of

study are more effective than crams session, and they practice it.

 

If there is one thing that study skills specialists agree on, it is that distributed study is better than massed, late-night, last-ditch effort known as cramming. You’ll learn more, remember more, and earn a higher grade by studying in four, one hour-a-night sessions for Friday’s exam than studying for four hours straight on Thursday night. Short, concentrated preparatory efforts are more efficient and rewarding than wasteful, inattentive, last moment marathons. Yet, so many students fail to learn this lesson and end up repeating it over and over again until it becomes a wasteful habit. Not too clever, huh?

 

When you cram, you are taking the shortcut, and shortcuts never produce any real worthwhile results. Also, when you take shortcuts, you feel rather rotten knowing that you could have done better but didn’t. Shortcuts cut you short. You can’t plant watermelon seeds and harvest fresh watermelons the next day. It takes time. Cramming for a test or project and expecting to make a high score the next day is like planting watermelon seeds and expecting to harvest and eat fresh watermelon the next day. Plus cramming for a test or project doesn’t help you academically, so why even do it. Plan ahead, prepare ahead. Give yourself plenty of days and weeks to prepare for upcoming accountability opportunities.

reflection: this is saying that only because you see a lot of people chooing the wrong, does not make it right. An example is the kid that said a bad word because kids in his school said it too. He got his mouth washed out with soap.

7.  . . . understand that actions affect learning. Successful students know their personal behavior affect their feelings and emotions which in turn can affect learning.

If you act in a certain way that normally produces particular feelings, you will begin to experience those feelings. Act like you’re bored, and you’ll become bored. Act like you’re disinterested, and you’ll become disinterested. So the next time you have trouble concentrating in the classroom, “act” like an interested person: lean forward, place your feet flat on the floor, maintain eye contact with the professor, nod occasionally, take notes and ask questions. Not only will you benefit directly from your actions, your classmates and professor may also get more excited and enthusiastic.

8. . . . talk about what their learning . Successful students get to know something well enough that they can put into words. Talking about something, with friends or classmates, is not only good for checking whether or not you know something, it’s a proven learning tool. Transferring ideas into words provides the most direct path for moving knowledge from short-term to long-term   memory. You really don’t “know” materials until you can put it into words. So, next time you study, don’t do it silently. Talks about notes, problems, reading, etc. with friends, recite to a chair, organize an oral study group, pretend your teaching your peers. “Talk-learning” producers a whole host of memory trace that result in more learning.

            5.  Don’t sit in the back of the room. Successful students minimize classroom distractions that interfere with classroom learning.

Students want the best seat available for their entertainment dollars, but willingly seek the worst seat for their educational dollars. Students who sit in the back cannot possibly be their professor’s teammate (see no. 4). Why do they expose themselves to the temptations of inactive classroom experiences and distractions of all people between them and their instructor? Of course, we know they chose the back of the classroom because they seek invisibility or anonymity, both of which are antithetical to efficient and effective learning. If you are trying not to be part of the class, why, then, are you wasting your time? Push your hot buttons, is there something else you should be doing with your time?

6.  … take good notes. Successful students take notes that are understandable and organized, and review them often.

Why put something into your notes you don’t understand? Ask the questions now that are necessary to make your notes meaningful at some later time. A short review of your notes while the material is still fresh on your mind helps your learn more. The more you learn then, the less you’ll have to learn later and the less time it will take because you won’t have to include some deciphering time, also. The whole purpose of taking notes is to use them often. The more you use them, the more they improve.

Student Success Statement: time

Student Success Statement:

“The time is always right to do what is right”.

Reflection: when making the correct decision, the time is always right because no matter what happens or what is happening the truth is always better than a lie that is unreal. Choosing what’s right at the right time does not exist. Choosing what’s right, does not need any time. For example, telling your mom you don’t stay after school. You should let her know you’re not because in the long run she will eventually find out and your consequence will be harsher.

3.. ask questions. Successful students ask questions to provide the quickest route between ignorance and knowledge. In addition to securing knowledge you seek, asking questions as at least two other extremely important benefits. The process helps you pay attention to you! Think about it. If you want something go after it. Get the answer now, or fail a question later. There are no foolish questions, only foolish silence. It’s your choice.

4. Learn that a student and a professor make a team. Most instructors want exactly what you want: THEY WOULD LIKE FOR YOU TO LEARN THE MATERIAL in their respective classes earned a good grade.

Successful student reflection well on the efforts of any teacher; if you have learned you material, the instructor takes same justifiable pride in teaching. Join forces with your instructor, they are not an enemy, you share the same interest, the same goals-in short, your teammate. Get to know your professor. You’re the most variable players on the same team. Your jobs are to work together for mutual success. Neither wishes to chalk up a losing season. Be a team player!

“ I know only that what is moral is what you feel good after and what is immoral is what you feel bad after “.

This is saying that you should pay attention to what’s right and what’s wrong before it’s too late and what you did has no turning back. With every bad thing you do theirs going to be a consequence , this does not mean that you will get in trouble right away or that something will happen to you but with time you will learn that only because you got away with it does not mean it was correct. Because one day you will realize that by living your life by  lying to others, means your lying to yourself as well and will never learn from your mistake therefor you will have no principal that will lead you to succeed and be eternally happy.

Successful students exhibit a combination of successful attitudes and behaviors as well as intellectual capacity. Successful students…..

1.   …Are responsible and active. Successful students get involved in their studies, accept responsibilities for their own education, and are active participants in it! Responsibilities mean control. It’s the difference between leading and being led. Your own efforts control your grade, you earn the glory or deserve the blame, you make the choice. Active classroom participants improves in grades without in cress in study time. You can sit there, act board, day dream, or sleep. Or, you can actively listen, think, question, and take note like someone in charge of their learning experience. Ether potion cost one class period. However, the former method will require a large degree of additional work outside of class to achieve the same degree of learning the letter provides at one sitting. The choice is yours.

2.   … Have educational goals. Successful students have legitimate goals and are motivated by what they represent in terms of career aspirations and life’s desires.

Ask yourself these questions: what am I doing here? Why have I chosen to be sitting here now? Is there some better place I could be? What does my present here mean to me? Answer to these questions represent your “hot buttons” and are, without a doubt, the most important factor in your success as a college student. If you’re educational goals are truly yours, not someone else's, they will motivate a vital and positive academic attitude. If you are familiar with what these hot buttons represent and refer to them often, especially when you tired of being a student, nothing can stop you; if you aren't and don't, everything can and will.

I generally come up with an idea and do massive amounts of research then sometimes prepare an outline before acually writing. I always print out the paper and come back to it the next day and reread itr. That is the easiest way for me to catch my own mistakes . I have to give my eyes a break from it, and if I just wrote it I think it looks perfect. Biut if I look at it a day later. I almost always find gramatical errors or phrases and sentences I just want to remove.

How I succeed in team proects: never assume someone is doing what there suppost to be doing. Have regular meetings and have each member show their work, not just give you or your group your word for it.

My test studying method: I have different strategies for different types of test or subjects. For me,

If I knew there was going to be an essay I would try to take the terms and apply them to an example or create different questions on the concepts focused on throughout the semester.

My time management secret: I always carry a planner with me. I even use different color highlighters to show what each event on my calendar is for. For example, pink is personal, yellow is school, orange is work, blue is appointments. And green is for my sorority. Although I use white out frequently, I can see in bright yellow that if I had that projects for finances due on Tuesday. I can see in bright yellow that if I had that project due on Tuesday, I need to start working on it on {the previous} Wednesdays so I can just get it done. My friend has always been amazed at how early I get things accomplished but that is really all I do.

This article is saying that a guy tried out with good intentions to American idol and for having such violent and dangerous crimes in his record, they decided to boot him out of the condition. This is because the judges or the producers of the show do not  know , how dangerous Jermaine really is and do not trust him after commenting all those crimes,

I think this is unfair people, he might have done bad things in the past but might have want to change himself by joining this compition. He did wrong for not telling anybody about his bad reputation and may someday realize that he missed his only chance of success but people of the crimes he committed in the past he will never be able to accomplish his dream.

Sarah’s academic success story: part 1

Time management became a key factor in my studying skills for college. Sometimes that meant writing out the terms for the chapter read (even when it isn’t required) to better understand them. That way when the midterm or test comes around I was able to understand what I was studying. I started taking excellent notes in classes in college. I may have done this in high school but in college I stated tying up the notes after class. This helped me remember what I just went over in class then when I had a test one week later I was more likely to remember then as well.

My overall studying method: structured. One thing I learned was that I had to adapt or change my studying method according the class. I couldn’t study for a religion class the same way I studied for finance class. But making sure I had enough time to study for each class-even if it meant carrying a planner with me at all times was a big part of my success.

This is saying that anything you dream, you will give your best and follow through it without any help of others except for yourself. You will have to overcome the odds and succeed further on than what your parents accomplish. You will show everyone what your parents raised for so long, and will cherish your family’s name.The path you may follow to your future is critical, whether you choose the right one, well that’s all up to you. Do you you truly think it’s right, for a life time of happiness and joy, rather than a future of crime and lies.

Better grades in college. A big thing that not many will say it’s to ask for help if you needed it. It’s not a bad thing to not indeerstand, it’s a bad thing if you don’t do anything about it. Plan your time out so you are completing everthing , that’s needed to get done and leave time to double check. Write things down and have good time manegment skills. Ask for help it’s probily the biggest thing I can say through. If you don’t understand go to the office or find a classmate that does understand and is willing to help you. If you try hard it will come to you. I find myself thinking that I will have to try harder to fail than I try to succeed. It is something that is within me to succeed, if that is not who you are the hopefully things that I have done can show oyu that is something that is amazing to find! Good luck!

Also, it was the first paper where they were like, here you go, just write about something, but it could be anything. I had to argue in favor against something, but it can be anything from the sky is blue to hypnotism. I wrote mines in hypnotism. I worked on the paper for weeks and weeks. Every night I would be doing research or writing. I put so much effort into this paper. It ended up being fewer than 12 pages but it was full of information. I turned it in and when I got it back a week or so later, I had received the first A+ of my college career. All my hard work paid off because I got the grade I deserved. I was really happy and proud of myself.
