student success statement

Student success statement
“To see what is right and not to do it is want of courage.”
                          Confucius                    
Reflection:
If you know that what you’re going to do or want to do then take the chance to accomplish it always do what’s right. Is courage if you know something is right but you don’t do it. Always do what’s right no matter what.

student success statement

       STUDENT SUCCESS STATEMENT
“When an archer misses the mark, he turns and looks for the fault within himself. Failure to hit the bull-eye is never the fault of the target.
To improve your aim, improve yourself.”
                      Gilbert Arland
Reflection:
If you decide to make the wrong choice its no ones fault but yours you make your choices. It you chose the wrong don’t blame others for it. If you fail or miss something it all your fault you’re the one who takes all the choices.

take control of your homework part 3

       Take control of your homework
                               Part 3
Take advantage of any free time
If you have a study period or a long bus ride, use the time to review notes, prepare for an upcoming class or start your homework. Flash cards are a great learning tool. They are easy to make, easy to handle, and are a marvelous tool. You can even have separate ringed stacks for each subject. WHATEVER YOU WANT TO REMEMBER PUT IN YOUR CARD.
Study with a friend
Get together with friends and classmates to quiz each other, compare notes and predict test questions. Consider joining a study group.
Communicate
If you have concerns about the amount or type of homework you have, you may want to talk to your family, teacher or a counselor. They can help you understand how much time you need to allot for homework and have to manage your tasks.
Celebrate your achievements
Reward yourself for hitting milestones or doing something well.
       Choose the right!!!!

note taking strategies part 4

      Note taking strategies
                                 Part 4
For review
Once you’ve done all of the above, you’ll find you’ve created your own personalization study guide. Cover the main section of the page and use the key words and questions in the left margin as a quiz.
Stick to it
Review your notes the day you take them and all your notes once a week. That way, you won’t need to study as much when it’s test time. You’ve been doing the work all along. Try out the Cornell system, but if it doesn’t work for you, experiment with other methods. Ask your classmates how they take notes or ask a teacher for advice. Taking good notes requires practice, like any other skill, and the more you work at it now, the more prepared you’ll be to take in college.

balancing high school and part-time work part 2

 Balancing high school and part-time work
                             Part 2
Voicing your goals to someone else can help you make decisions and figure out your priorities. It can also help you judge whether you can do both-work and study-successfully. To help answer this question, ask yourself:
. Am I an organized person?
. What kind of study habits do I have?
. Do I make good use of my available time?
. Will I be able to manage my schedule effectively if I take on a part-time job?
Think about the pros and cons of working. On the plus side, a job can teach you about commitment, time management and responsibility-and, of course, handling money. On the minus side, a job can cut into time you have for sleeping, studying and socializing.
              Choose the right!!!!

       “Success is dependent on effort”

Reflection: if you put effort to choosing the right you will accomplish it. If you want to be successful you need to bet effort to it. If you don’t put effort to it you will not succeed.

successful student 1-2

        Successful student
                   1-2
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 responsibility for their own education. your own errors control your grade, you earn the glory or deserve the blame, you make the choice. Active classroom participation improves grades without increasing study time. You can sit there, act bored, daydream, or sleep. Or, you can actively listen, think, question, and take notes like someone in charge of their learning experience. Either option cots 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 latter 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 presence here mean to me? Answers to these questions represent your “hot bottoms” and are, without a doubt, the most important factors in you success as a college student. If your educational goals are truly tours, not someone else’s they will motivate a vital and positive academic attitude. If you are familiar with what these hot bottoms represent and refer to them often, especially when you tire of being a student, nothing can stop you: if you aren’t and don’t, everything can. And will!
