Student Success Statement

When the right time to do what is right? When do we stop? What time do we choose the right? Always—the answer is always. You will never have enough time to do what is right. Always question what you are doing. Because sometimes it is wrong what you are doing without even noticing it. That is why you should always be careful and do what is right.  For example, if there is a test coming up in a week, do you wait to study the night before or do you study for the whole week? Well you have to do what is right and study for as much time you have. The more you study the better you will do in your test.

“You have only always to do what is right. It will become easier by practice, & you enjoy in the midst of your trails the pleasure of an approving conscience.”

~ Robert E. Lee

Effective study methods part 1

        My test 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 flash cards on what is important for those sections, paying special attention to what the teacher said would be on the test if there was a review session. Also, I go through the book and read the inset stores and add to my flashcards. If there are practice problems or online assignments or old test, I use those to help me study for the test as well. Once the test is over, I keep the flashcards so that I have them for the next test or for the final. Flashcards are 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 it is 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 used to it, For example the more you practice a song on the piano, the better you become at playing that song. Learning and remembering is like playing the piano-the more you practice saying it doing it the better you can remember it. Look now 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 à Proficiency à Pleasure

The better you remember, the more pleasure you obtain from studying and learning.
