Student Success Statement


Student Success Statement
“Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.”
Helen Keller
Reflection: I think this statement means or is tryin to say is that with a group of people more can be accomplished and if your solo hardly anything can be accomplished.

Student Success Statement


Student Success Statement
“So often, in our quest to be more popular and to be part of “in-group” we lose sight of things that are far more important.”
Sean Covey
Refection: People want to be popular so they forget about others and other things that are more important than those that are bad. Example: Someone wants to be cool in school so they behave bad don’t do their work n are just a pain in the neck but what they don’t know is that they are hurting their education.

5.       Don’t sit in on the back of the room. Successful student minimize classroom distractions the interference with the learning

Students want the best seat available for their entertainment dollars, but willingly want the best seat for their education dollars. Students that sit in the back can’t possibly be there professors teammate (See no.40).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 that they choose the back of the classroom because they seek invisibility and anonymity, both in which are antithetical to efficient and effective learning. If you are trying not to be part of the class, then are you wasting 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 meaningful at some later time. A short review of your notes while the material is still fresh on your mind helps you learn more. The more you learn then, and use them often. The more you use them, the more they improve.

Successful Students 1-2


Successful Students
1-2
Successful students exhibit a combination of successful students….
1.                       Are responsible and active. Successful students get involved in their studies, accept responsibility means control. It’s the difference between leading 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 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 require a large degree of learning the latter provides at one sitting. The choice is yours.
2.                       Have education 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 I am doing here? Why have I chosen to be my presence here mean to me? Answer 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 your, 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 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
