Tip 5: keep a list of Questions

When you feel confused about something you’re reading write down any questions you have. Something your questions are answered as you read further. If not don’t be afraid to ask for help. Remember teachers create assignments; they’ve read the texts and are familiar with them. When you have specific questions your teachers can provide answers that will help you better undertstand the material.

Learning is rooted in questions developed and asked by the learner. Asking questions to yourself to the teachers and to other is a great learning method. When you cease to ask questions you cease to exist to a great extent. Read actively by silently asking questions as you read. Questioning immerses you into the material you are reading and therefore will expand your mental capacities more than almost anything else.

The philosopher Sir Francis Bacon said, “ Knowledge is power.” Improving your reading comprehension is key to gaining impoprtant knowledge and making the most of your education. So pick up a book … and a pen.

Tips 3: Do Research

Literary critics have written vast numbers of analytical and critical pieces on countless books. If you’re having trouble understanding a particular text do some research and see what knowledgeable sources have to say about it. In addition to increasing your comprehension, you’ll also be showing initiative, something teachers always like to see. Always use legitimate and scholarly sources not condensed study guides.

Tip 4: Use a Dictionary

Make sure you have access to a dictionary when you’re reading. You can often out the meaning of an unfamiliar word by using context clues, but sometimes you can’t. rather than simply skipping over the words you don’t know take the time to look them up. The results are well worth the effort. Your comprehension will increase greatly and you’ll build your vocabulary at the same time,

To succeed in high school and college, you have to do your best at all times. But sometimes it’s hard to stay motivated, even when you really care about the work you’re doing. Here are five ways to stay on the right track.

1.       Focus on High-Impact Activites

The key to success in school is staying focused on your course work. Make a list to get an overall pictures of your workload before you start to tackle any of it. Then make a plan. Athough it’s tempting to do the simplest assignments first  those that take more time and effort to accomplish are probably the ones that you’ll learn the most from.

To determine what your priorities are, rank your assignments in the order of their importance. Then rearrange your time and devote more energy toward those that have the greatest impact on your course work and grades. For example even though all homework assisnments are important, studying for a midterm exams takes prioprity over writing a paragraph for English class. As you complete each task, think of it as another step on your way to college success.

2.       Create new challenges

Changing your approach can help you stay interested in what you’re doing. If you’ve been given an assignment similar to one you’ve done in the past, think about it in a different way. If your wrote an essay for a creative writing assignment last year try a poem this time. For book reports pick a history book instead of another biography.

Once you’ve done all of the above, you’ll find you’ve created your own personalized study guide. Cover the main section of the page and use the key words and questions in the left margin as a quiz.

Stick to it

Review your note the day you take them and all your notes once a week. That way you won’t need to study as much when its test time.

You’ve been doing the work all along. Try out the cornell system but if it dosent work for you experiment with other methods. Ask your classmates how they take notes or ask a teacher for advice. Talking good notes requires practice like any other skill. And the more you work at it now, the more prepared you’ll be to take notes in college.

Emphasis on the Written Word

Most of the communication as well as the course work, in distance-learning classes is written. That’s a plus, because the focus on the written word gives you the opportunity to develop as a writer – and strong writing skills are essential to academic success. However if writing is a serious weakness for you, virtual learning may not be the best educational option until you improve your skills. Yes, most of distance education is the written word; therefore , you need to be a good reader, love to read, and love writing also. Most og your assignments will be written and submitted to the instructor in the written format. Your penmanship needs to be excellent spelling great sentence structure above average vocabulary extraordinary. You need to have online access with reliable equipment. If your internet communicates at home isn’t working you can do online education from home and will need to go to someplace where you do have access to the Internet.

Positive Aspects of distance Education

·        Independence and time management: taking courses online lets you hone your ability to work on your own. You also gain experience in managing your time efficiently.

·        A flexible schedule: School can only provide a certain number of class periods in a single school day, and there may not be enough time for you to take everything you want. Because distance education lets you take classes outside regular school hours, it gives you the flexibility to explore all your areas of interest.

·        Advanced and specialized classes: some school cant provide advanced or specialize classes. Distance Education gives you the chance to gain experience in areas that would otherwise remain out of reach.

You may want to take a class that your high school doesn’t offer. Under some circumstances, you can still enroll in the class----through distance learning.

Distance education means taking a class without being physically present where it is being taught. Internet-base technology lets students almost anywhere.

Some high schools agree to recognize distance-learning credits when they dont have the resources to offer a course themselves. Distance education is often used to increase options in rural areas and for AP courses. for you it might mean doing self-tutorial at home in the evening or participating in a class that is 1,000 miles away along with others high school students. Check with your school counserlor to see what's available.

Additional Tips

Although working and going to school is challenging it can be a rewarding experience if you use some foresight. These tips can help you handle the situation and make the most of your time:

·       Discuss your plans with your family. Balancing the demands of school and work is easier with their support.

·       Start slowly; don’t commit to working a lot of hours immediately.

·       Avoid time conflicts by planning your class and work schedule as far ahead of time as possible.

·       Use your time efficiently. You can use 10 minutes waiting in a line to go over a few pages of assigned reading. If your job has a lot of downtime and your boss has no objection, you can use slow periods to do schoolwork.

·       If you commute to your job on public transportation, bring your schoolwork with you so you can work along the way

·       Be flexible and willing to make sacrifices. You may have to cut down on some other things you’d like to do because of your school and work commitments.

·       If you have too much on your plate, admit it then cut back as needed.

·       Schedule relaxation time. Everyone needs some downtime to stay happy and healthy
