Part 9


. . .don’t cram from exams. Successful students know that divided periods of study are more effective than cram sessions, and they practice it.
    If there is one thing that study skills specialist agree on, it is that distributed study is better than massed, late night, last- ditch efforts known as craning. You’ll learn more, remember more, and earn a higher grade by studying in four, one hour-a-night sessions for Friday’s exam than studying for four hours straight on Thursday night. Short, concentrated preparatory efforts are more efficient and rewarding than wasteful, intensive, last moment marathons. Yet, so many students fail to learn this lesson and end up repeating it over and over again until it becomes a wasteful habit. Not too clever, huh?
When you cram, you are taking the shortcut, and shortcuts never produce any real worthwhile results. Also, when you take shortcuts, you feel rather rotten knowing that you could have done better but didn’t. Shortcuts cut you short. You can’t plant watermelon seeds and harvest fresh watermelons the next day. It takes time. Cramming for a test or project and expecting to make a high score the next day is like planting watermelon seeds and expecting to harvest and eat fresh watermelon the next day. Plus cramming for a test or project doesn’t help you academically, so why even do it. Plan ahead, prepare ahead. Give yourself plenty of days and weeks to prepare for upcoming accountability opportunities.

" what is right isn't always popular what's popular isn't always right.' 
Howard Cosell 

Reflection: what this means is you need to do what you think is right, not what anyone else things. you need to realize that what is write and do always your think don't follow other people. you need to be yourself and you will be popular .

7....... undertsand that action affects learing successful stuents know there personal behavior after their feeling and emotions which can affect learning.

if you act in a certain way that normally produce particular feelings you will begin to feel those feelings. act like you're bored 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 may also get more excited and enthusiastic. 

8... talk about what thy'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 its a proven learning tool. Transferring ideas into words provides the most direct path for moving knowledge from short-term to long-term memory you already don't know materials until you can out it into words so, next time you study dont do it silently talk about notes problems reading etc with friends recite to a chair organize an oral study group pretend your teaching your peers talk learning produce a whole host of memory trace that result 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 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 professor teammate (see no.40). Why do they expose themselves to the temptations of inactive classroom experience. 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 why 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 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 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 to include some deciphering time, The whole purpose of taking notes is to use them, and use them often. The more you use them, the more they improve.

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 you! Think about it. If you want something, go for it. Get the answer now, or fail a question later. There are no foolish questions, only foolish 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 the 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 an enemy, you share the same interest, the same goals – in short, your teammates. Get to know your professor. You’re the most valuable to player on the same team. Your jobs are to work together for mutual success. Neither your wishes to chaulk up a losing season. Be a team player!
