Student Success Statement
 
“Regard you good name as the richest jewel you can possibly be possessed of.”

8. Make summary sheets, flash cards, and practice tests.
9. Always carry some kind of pocket work and make use of wasted spare minutes by reciting and thinking about what you are learning.

Part 1



Are you really doing everything you can to prepare for tests? Re-reading the chapter and looking over your notes is not enough. Below is a list of tips for test preparation from successful students.

 

1.     Keep up to date with assignments.

 

2.     Take notes in every class every day. This includes asking questions when you don’t understand.

 

3.     Process information as you come to it. Learning information is much different than

"Becoming  Acquainted" with it.

 

4.     Process information systematically. Label in the margin works well for most people.

 

5.     Adapt it to suit your learning styles. Capitalize on the discipline label in the margin requires and

make it habit to process information from texts and lectures, not just go over it.

 

6.     Have a study place that is free of distractions.

 

7.     Have a specific time for initial study of each subject. You may need more than this time, but

having a set time will save you time.

 

8.     Make summary sheets, flash cards, and practice tests.

 

9.     Always carry some kind of pocket work and make use of wasted spare minutes by reciting and

thinking about what you are learning.

 

10.Learn something new or difficult in you strongest intelligence, sense or in your dominant

hemisphere. Reinforce it with as many different ways as possible.

 

11.Find a study partner or two in each class and routinely take turns teaching each other the material.

 

12.Prepare for each class as if there will be a pop quiz.

The Secrets of Successful Students Part02

Successful Students take charge of their lives and balance their time between fun and work. They know that there is a time for all-nighters, and it’s not during finals week.
Successful Students Take Care of Themselves
Do you live on junk food and lay on the couch watching TV every night? Students with poor physical habits probably don’t feel very energetic in the mornings, and they probably don’t feel good sitting in class, either.

Good food and little exercise will clear your head! Students who eat junk in moderation (you really don’t to cut it out completely) and work out in some way are more likely to participate in sports. That means they have more balance in their lives, feel better in the mornings, and are more alert in class.
You just have to change a few habits to feel better. Eat healthy foods, start walking more, take a yoga class, enroll in martial arts classes, or challenge yourself to do sit-ups every night. You’ll notice a change right away.

Thank You, Grace Fleming, for your suggestions.

Secrets of Successful Students ~


Secrets of Successful Students
Part01
It’s a Matter of Taking Charge of Your Time and Destiny!

Have you ever wondered what successful students do to set themselves apart from the rest? The key is simple: successful students take
charge of their own success.


There is no magic trick, power drink or special class that makes a student excel in the classroom.
Students stand out because they take charge of their time and their tasks, without relying on anybody else to tell them what to do.

Successful Students Control Their Calendars.
Successful students don’t rely on parents or teachers to tell them when assignments are due or when test dates are approaching. They mark special dates in their calendars and keep track of commitments and schedules.

Successful students don’t put others in charge of their lives.

Successful Students Prioritize
Do you like to stay out late with friends? Do you like to go to Parties? Do you like to watch TV or play video games all night? Well, who doesn’t?

Student Success Statement

“Your name is a diamond; make sure it shines”
-Sergio Tovalin

This quotes meaning is our name is to be like a Diamond; Strong, Bold, Sharp,etc. and We need to make sure it Shines by Choosing the Right. Not let this Diamond(Our Name/You)  become Dull and Weak by Choosing the Wrong. ~

The “C” Student ;


The “C” Student

EFFORT: “C” students are capable of sufficient effort, but either fail to realistically evaluate the effort needed to accomplish a task successfully, or lack the desire to meet the challenge. They put forth very little effort. They don’t realize that they will be rewarded according the amount of effort they put into a project. Little efforts=bad results.

COMMUNICATION
:   “C” students communicate in ways that often limit comprehension or risk misinterpretation. Ideas are not well formulated before they are expressed. Poor listening/reading habits inhibit matching inquiry and response.

RESULTS: “C” students obtain mediocre or inconsistent results on tests. They have some concept of what is going on but clearly have not mastered the material.
