Student successful statement


Student successful statement
“It is our duty to concentrate all our influence to make popular that which is sound and good, and (to make) unpopular that which is unsound (and not good).”
-Joseph smith
Reflection: if your someone who is nice and likes to help out a lot then that’s doing the right things for others. You can clean up after yourself or help out a teacher or adult clean up the mess someone else did. You can also help out cleaning pup our community so it won’t look ugly and un safe .

9. …. don’t cram for exams. Successful students know that divided periods of study are more effective cram sessions, 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 efforts 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 nest day. It takes time. Cramming for test next day is like planting watermelon seeds and expecting to harvest and eat fresh watermelon the next day. Plus cramming for 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.

“What’s right isn't always popular. What’s popular isn't always right”
-Howard Cosell
Reflection: what this statement means is that everything you do isn't always popular.
-For example: if you change the way you look or act then you won’t become you will just be known as a fake. OR if you do something to impress someone, you won become popular you will be known as that one girl/boy. And if you are popular then you’re not being yourself which is not choosing the right!!

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 your bored, and you’ll become disinterested. So the next time you have trouble concentrating in the classroom, “act” like an interested person: learn 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 main 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 it 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” material until you can put it into words. so, next time you study, don’t do it silently. Talk about notes, problems, readings, etc. with friends, recite to a chair, organize an oral study group, pretend you’re teaching your peers. “talk-learning” producers a whole host of memory trace that result in more learning.

5. Dont 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 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 you hot buttons, is there something else you be doing with your time.
6… take good notes. Successful students take notes that are understandable and organized, an review them often.
Why put something into your notes you don’t understand? Ask the question now that questions are necessary to make you notes meaningful at some later time. a short review of your notes while the material is still fresh on your mind helps you to learn more. The more you learn then, the less you’ll have to learn later and the less time it will take because.

“The time is always right to do what is right”
-Martin Luther King Jr.
Reflection:  this means that when it’s time to do something at a specific time then you have to do it. But it can’t be something bad; it would have to be a good thing like going to work or school. It’s never wrong to do the right thing at any time. Don’t start wasting time on bad things so choose the right.

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 has at least two other extremely important benefits. The process helps you pay attention to extremely important benefits. The process helps you pay attention to your professors and helps your professor pat attention to you!! Think about it. If you want something go after it. Get the answers 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 and earn a good grade.
Successful student reflect well on the effect of any teacher; if you have learned your material, the instructor takes some justifiable pride in teaching. Join forces with your instructor, they are not an enemy, you share the same interests, the same goals- in short, and your teammates. get to know your professor. You’re the most valuable players on the team. Your jobs are to work together for mutual success. Neither wishes to chalk up a losing season. Be a team player.

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 active participants in it! Responsibility means 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 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 costs one class period. hower, 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 aspiration and lifes  desire.
Ask yourself these question: 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 have mean to me? Answer to these questions represent your “hot bottoms” and are, without and doubt, the most important factor in your success as a college student. if your educational goals are truly yours, not someone’s attuned.

Study for multiple exams part3


Study for multiple exams
part3
English, math foreign language tips: practice---especially foreign language. It is hard to succeed in a foreign language class if you are just showing and doing the work. But if you are in your room and look at objects and try to say them in the language you are learning it actually helps. Or if you send a simple text to a friend thinking about it, can you translate that to German or Spanish? These are the little things that will help.
Here are my final words of wisdom for students who want to get better grades in college: time management and organization are critical key factors to success in college. And never be afraid to go ask your teacher for help. They have office hours for a reason-use them!

wlaking horses



CTR: Tennessee walking horse trainer’s torture horses
Reflection: I think that the trainers should get there horses taken away. They should not be hurting animals cause there no different than humans.
Summary: Jackie the trainer had no comment for what he did to the horse. He just wanted to win a stupid ribbon that is not a big deal only to him it is.
