MY STRATEGGIES FOIR WRITTEN ASSSIGNMENTS: I TRY TO OUTLINE BEFORE I WRITE BECAUSE OTHERWISE I FORGET WHAT IM SUPPOST TO BE TALKING ABOUT. I TRY NOT TO LEAVE THEM UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE BECAUSE I WILL JUST GOOF UP THE WORK.  A LOT OF TIMES I JUST WRITE WHAT I FEEL. TEACHERS LIKE YOUR OPINION AND IF YOU CAN FIND SOMETHING FROM THE READING OF RESEARCH THAT RELATES ESPECIALLY TO YOUR LIFE, THEY LIKE IT EVEN MORE BECAUSE IT ALLOWS YOU TO TAKE OWNERSHIP OF YOUR WORK. I WRITE THINGS THAT I WANT OTHERS TO READ; NOT THINGS THAT I HAVE TO WRITE BECAUSE THE TEACHER SAID SO. HOW I SUCCEED IN TEAM PROJECTS: PERSONALLY, I DO NOT LIKE WORKING ON GROUP PROJECTS, ESPECIALLY ONES THAT I WORKED ON IN HIGH SCHOOL. HOWEVER, WHEN IT IS REQUIRED TO WORK IN A GROUP, USUALLY I TRYTO LEAD. I LIKE TALKING THE LEAD BECAUSE THEN I KNOW THAT MY GRADE WILL BE A GOOD ONE. I DO WELL IN SCHOOL, I ALWAYS HAVE AND I DON’T MIND CHANGING THAT ANY TIME SOON, SO WHEN I NEED TO WORK WITH PEOPLE WHO MAYBE DON’T CARE AS MUCH AS I DO, OR THEY HAVE MORE TIME TO WASTE ON THINGS OTHER THAN THE PROJECT, I TRY TO BE IN CHARGE. THAT WAY I KNOW THAT THINGS ARENT GOING TO GET DONE IN TIME AND THAT IM GOING TO GET A GOOD GRADE. IF I AM WORKING IN A GROUP OF PEOPLE WHO ALL WANT TO WORK, THEN IT IS A DIFFERENT STORY.

MY OVERALL STUDY METHOD: I BREAK UP STUDYING 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 BEFOREBIG 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 I RESTED. HOW IV’E OVERCOMES 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 AOUT GRADES THAT MUCH BECAUSE FOR ME THEY ARE NOT WORTH GETTING UPSET ABOUT. I DO WELL BECAUSE 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.

How I deal with multiple projects/tests: 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 crunch for time in a specific day, I will study for one test in the morning and the other on a afternoon or night. By breaking up the studying into different sections, I feel like I get much more done. Cram sessions do not work for me. I need to study something for a shorter period of time more often for it to sink in.

My time management secret: My secret is to use time wisely. I know that on certain days I do not have time to run errands or hang out with friends even. Each minute of the day is used for something. One thing that works really well for me is to write down if I am going to email people, write letters or to 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 for 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 am going to be the road for volleyball , when I am on the road, 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 METHODS

PART 1

MY TEST SUDY METHOD: WHEN IT COMES TO SYUDY FOR THE TEST, I USUALLY START 2-3 DAYS BEFORE THE TEST. I GO THROUGH MY NOTES AND MAKE FLASH CARDS ON WHAT WAS IMPORTANT FOR THOSE SECTIONS, PAYING SPECIAL ATTENTION TO WHAT THE TEACHER SAID THAT WOULD BE ON THE TEST IF THERE WAS A REVIEW SESSION. ALSO, I GO THROUGH THE OOK AND READ THE INSET STORIES AND ADD TO MY FLASHCARDS. IF THERE ARE PRACTICE PROBLEMSOR ONLINE ASSIGNMENTS AND OLD TESTS I USE THOSE TO HELP ME STUDY FOR THE TEST AS WELL. ONCE THE TEST IS OVER I KEEP THE FLASH CARDS SO I HAVE THEM FOR THE TEST ON FOR THE FINAL. FLASH CARDS ARE A MARVELING TOOL. THE KEY TO REMEMBERING SOMETHING IS TO REPEAT IT NUMEROYUS TIMES-SPACED REHERSAL . IF YOU FORGOT SOMETHING IT IS BECAUSE YOU HAVENT REOEATED IT ENOUGH TIMES FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME. REPITITION IS THE LAW OF LEARNING; THEREFORE 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 IN THE PIANO, THE BETTER YOU BECOME AT PLAYING THAT SONG. LEARNING AND REM

EMBERING IS LIKE PLAYING THE PIANO- THE MORE YOU PRACTICE THE SONG THE BETTER YOU GET AT IT. LOOK NOW AT WHAT YOU REMEMBER. YOU BEING EXPOSED TO IT. SO, PRACTICE REHEARSING THOSE THINGS YOU DESIRE TO REMEMBER, AND THEY WILL STICK WITH YOU.

Practice---à proficiency-à

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