Successful
Students
7-8
7. … Understand that
actions affect learning. Successful students know their personal behavior
affect their feelings and emotions which 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
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. Your really don’t “know” material until you can put it out into words.
So, next time you study, don’t do it silently. Talk about notes, problems,
Reading, etc. With friends, recite to a chair, organize an oral study group,
Pretend you’re teaching your peers. “Talk-learning” Produces a whole host of
memory traces that results in more 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
temptation of inactive classroom experience 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 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 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 you won’t have time, also.
The whole purpose of taking notes is to use them and use them often.

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 your professor and helps your professor 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
questions, only 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
students reflect well on efforts 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 the enemy, and you share the same interests,
with the same goals— in short, your teammates. Get to know your professor.
You’re the most valuable 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!

Successful Students
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, and are 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, and 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. However, the former method will required 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
Buttons” and are, without a doubt, the most important factors in your success
as a college student. If your 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 tire of being a student, nothing can stop you; if you
aren’t and don’t, everything can, and will!

Study for
Multiple Exam
Part 2
My strategy for written assignments: Everyone has their own
writing styles. I generally come up with an idea and do massive amounts of
research before I ever think about writing. I then organize my research then
sometimes prepare an outline before actually writing. I always print out the
paper and come back to it the next day and read it. 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. But if I look at it a day later I
almost always find errors for phrases and sentences I just want to reward.
How I succeed in team projects: Never assume someone is doing
what they are supposed to be doing. Have regular meetings and have each member
show their work, not just give you or the group their word for it.

Study for Multiple Exams
Part 1
How I study for multiple exams,
deal with multiple projects: Really it is my time management that I explained
above. If I see I have multiple things due or to study for all the same time I
spread out my time beforehand. For example, if I have a test Monday, and 2
tests on Tuesday then I will study for my Monday test Thursday and part of
Friday. Start studying for my next teat on the second half of Friday an part of
Saturday, than my second Tuesday test on Saturday as well as part of Sunday.
Then Sunday night I can review for my Monday test because I already studied for
it. When that test is over I can begin reviewing on the other tests.My overall
study method: I try to break it up over several days or at lest two. I get
bogged down if I try to pull an all-nighter.How I’ve overcome an initial bad
grade: If I received a low grade I probably knew it was coming because I didn’t
prepare properly or I didn’t use the right study habit for that class. I
usually try to go over what I did wrong and sometime discuss with the teacher
what I can do differently on the next exam or what they suggest I do for
studying for the next exam.

Sarah’s academic success story
Part 2
My test study method: I have 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 difficulty 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 questions on the concepts
focused on throughout the semester.
My time management secret: I always always 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 projects 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 thing accomplished but that really all I do.

Sarah’s Academic Success Story
Part 1
Time
management because a key factor in my study skills for college. In high school,
there were times I was able to study for an hour or two the night before a test
and get away with it. This was not the case in college. I made sure in college I
was prepared for each class. Sometimes that meant writing out the terms for the
chapter we read to better understand them. That way when midterm or test comes
around I was able to understand what I was studying. I started taking excellent
notes in 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
study method: Structure. One thing that I learned was I had to adapt or change my
study method according to the class. I couldn’t study for a region class the
same way I studied for a Finance class. But making sure I had enough time to
study for each class – even if it meant carrying a planer with me at all time
was a big part of my success.

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 needed it. It’s not a bad thing to not understand, it’s a bad thing to not understand, it’s a bad thing not to know anything about it. Plan your time out so you are completing everything that needs to get done and leave time to double check. Write things down and have good time management skills. Ask for help is probably the biggest thing 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. It is something that is within me to succeed. If that 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!

Work Together Par2
English, math, foreign language, tips: For math, all I can say is do the problems assigned. It is the only way to practice and that is really all it is for math. It’s the same as chemistry; if you do the practice problems you will understand the material so much better because those subjects are not just memorization like history, you need to be able to apply what you have learned in practical situations. As for English, I am no longer taking it, but I would say to leave yourself plenty of time to write essays and papers. They take time to get all the information out of your head and onto the page, so don’t leave them until the last second.

can and will work as part of the team as long as
everyone in the team is willing to do his work. I don’t like having to pick up
the slack, but I will if I know that my grade will be harmed otherwise. My
greatest academic success was in my first semester when I had to write a 10-12
page research paper. It was the longest paper I had ever been assigned and I
was a little scared. Also, it was the first paper where they were like, here
you go, just write about something. I had to argue in favor of or against something,
but it could be anything from the sky is blue to hypnotism. I wrote mine on
hypnotism. I worked on this 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 just under 12 pages but it was full on 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.

You Can Succeed every day
My overall study method: I break up studying over several
days and over the course of the evening and day. Cramming never works for me so
I try not to do it. I will have longer sessions on nights before big tests, but
I never stay up much later than normal before tests. I know that if I take the
test tired the next day I will not do as well as if I was rested.
How I’ve overcome an initial bad grade: I usually look over
the test or paper to see what I did that the teacher did not want. Basically, I
do not stress out about grades that much because for me they are not worth
getting really upset about. I do well because I know that I know the material.
However, if I do get a bad grade, or one lower than I expected, I make sure
that the next time a test is coming I study even more so that I won’t be
surprised by the questions.

Effective Study Methods
Part 3
How I deal with multiple projects/test: When I have more than
one test or project, I break up my studying. I will study for one test 30 minutes
or so and then switch to the other one. If there is some part of a project that
I know will not take me very long, I will do it when I don’t have much time. If
I am really in a church for time on a specific day, I will study for one test
in the morning and then the other in the night. By breaking up the studying into
different sections, I feel like I get much more done. Cram session do not work
for me. I need to study something for a shorter period of time more often for
it to sink in.

Effective Study Methods
Part 2
My time
manegment secret:My secret is to use time wisely. I know that on certain days I
do not have to run errands or hang out with friends even. Each minute of each
day is used for something. One thing that works really well for me is to write
everything down. I mean everything. I write down if I am going to mail people,
write letters, or study. It works for me to have a planner that goes by the day
and shows me what I am going to be doing every day. Knowing what I have to do
everyday helps me plan out my week and my days. If I know that I don’t have
time on Tuesday, I will try to get more things done on Monday or Sunday. I plan
ahead, especially if I bring my books and read on the bus /plane/hotel room. Missing
class is killer to make up from, but if you are upfront with your professors,
they are usually nice about having to turn things in late or not being in
classes

Effective Study Method
Part 1
My test
study method: When it comes time to study for the test, I usually start 2-3
days before the test. I go through my notes and make flashcards on what was
important for those sections, paying special attention to what the teacher said
would be on the test if there was a review session. If you forgot something, it
is because you haven’t repeated it enough times for an extended period of time.
Repetition is a law of learning; therefore, to learn and remember, to recall,
its mandatory that you repeat over and over the thing you desire to learn and
remember. You may be thinking, “oh, no, repeating something.” You need to get
use to remembering is like playing the piano- the more you practice saying or
doing it the better you can remember it. Look now at what you remember. You remember
it because you have repeated it numerous
times since first being exposed to it. So, practice rehearsing those
things you desire to remember, and they will stick with you.
Practice--- Proficiency- Pleasure
The better you remember, the more pleasure you obtain from
studying and leaning
