Part 1

Develop Good Study Habits

In college you’ll need to build on the study skills that you learned in high school. The demands of a college class are probably more rigorous than those you are used to.

You can succeed by knowing what to expect and how to handle it. Think of college as a full-time job, in which you spend 40 hours a week on class, labs, study groups and doing homework.

Being organized and using your time well essential. Learn more about time management, and se the guidelines below to develop your study skills.

Decide When to Study

Work out about how many hours you need to study every day. Then make a schedule.

·          Figure out what blocks of time you have available throughout the day, in the evenings and on weekends.

·          Consider what time of day you are most alert – there are morning people and night owls – and try to schedule your studying accordingly.

·          Think about whether you do better studying for a few hours at a time or sitting down for marathon sessions.

Quadrant 2: things that are important but not urgent

Quadrant 3: things that are not important but are urgent

Quadrant 4: things that are not important and not urgent

1. Important & urgent	2.Important but not urgent
3. Not important but are urgent	4. not important and not urgent

"nothing is never gained in doing whats wrong."

when your doing something bad you dont deserve something good in the end rather than nothing. Otherwise if you do something right you will be rewarded into how much good have you done in life and get something than nothing at all.

“It’s no WHERE you live but HOW you live that counts. It’s not where you play the game but HOW you play that counts”

This statement says that it doesn't matter when or where but HOW you live life and it’s obstacles.

Successful Students 10

10. Successful students are good time managers. Successful students do not procrastinate. They have learned that time control is life control and have consciously chosen to be in control of their life.

An elemental truth: you will either control time or be controlled by it! It’s your choice: you can lead or be led, establish control or relinquish control, steer your own course or follow others. Failure to take control of their own time is probably the no. 1 study skill problem for college students. It ultimately causes many students to become non-students! Procrastinators are good excuse-makers. Don’t make academics harder on yourself than it has to be. Stop procrastinating. And don’t wait until tomorrow to do it!

The 10 items listed above are paraphrased from an article by Larry M Ludewig called Ten Commandments for Effective Study Skills which appeared in The Teaching Professor, December, 1992.

7…understand that actions affect learning. Successful students know there personal behavior affect their feeling and emotions which can affect learning.

If you act in a certain way that normally produce particular feelings, you will begin to feel those feelings. Act like your bored and you’ll become disinterested. So the next time you have trouble concentrating in the class room, “act” like an interested person: lean forward, place your feet flat on the floor, maintain eye contact with the professor may also get more excited and enthusiastic.

8. . . .talk about what they’re 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, is a proven learning tool. Transferring ideas into words provide the most direct path for moving knowledge from short-term to long-term memory. You really don’t “know” material until you can put into words. So, next time you study, don’t do it silently. a chair, organize an oral study group, pretend you’re teaching your peers. “Talking –learning ’’ produces a whole host of memory traces that result in moe learning .

5. Don’t sit in the back of the room. Successful students minimize classroom distractions that interfere with 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 the people between them and their instructor? Of course, we know they close 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 less time it will take because you won’t have to include some decipliering time, also. The whole purpose of taking notes is to use them, and use them often. The more you use them, the more they improve.

Sarah’s Academic Success Story part 2

My test study method : I have different strategies for different types of tests or subjects. For me, any type of math is exceptionally difficult so I had to spend extra time on that. I would go back through the homework problems focusing on the problems that I had extra difficult on. Many times I would ask the teacher for an additional study materials they could provide. If it was a class that required memorization or applying concepts I would create a sort of study guide for myself many times focusing on what were key focal points in the class. If I knew there were going to be essays I would try to take the terms and apply them to an example or create different question 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 for appointments, and green is for my sorority. Although I use white-out frequently, I can see in bright yellow that if I have that project for finance due on Tuesday, I need to start working on it on [the previous] Wednesday so I can just get it done. My friends have always been amazed at how early I get things accomplished but that is really all I do.

Work Together Part 3

Here are my final words of wisdom for students who want to get better grades in college: A big thing that not many will say is to ask for help if you need don’t do anything about it. Plan you time out so you are completing everything that needs to get done and leave time out so you are completing everything that needs to get done and leave time to double check. Write things down and have a good time management skills. Ask for help is probably the biggest I can say though. If you don’t understand, go to office hours 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 would have to try harder to fail than I try to succeed. If something that is within me to succeed. If this is not who you are, then hopefully things that I have done can show you that success is something that is amazing to find! Good luck!

Academic Success Part 1

My great academic success. In my principles of marketing classes, we had to come up with a new product a mad sell it. My group ended up with a couple supposedly bad students according to our teacher since they were the last ones picked. In the end, they helped out more than since I was team leader I assigned them certain pieces of the project that became solely their responsibility. Delegating work always helps since it allows a group member individual work without separating the group.

English, math, foreign language tips: Math basically just takes practice. I always tell students to take a blank piece of paper and write everything you know about what you’ve learned or what you’re studying for in class. If you don’t remember everything or start drawing blankets, then you need to study more and review your notes. Note cards work really well for foreign language. Here are my final words of wisdom for students who want to get better grades in college: Go to class, make friends with people in class just in case you’re absent and remember that you should want to learn
