Tip 5: keep a list of questions

When you feel confused about something your reading write down any questions you have. Sometimes your questions are answered as you read further. If not don’t be afraid to ask for help. Remember teachers create assignments: they read the text and are familiar with them. When you have specific questions your teachers can provide answers that will help you better understand the material. Learning is rooted in questions developed and asked by the learner.

Asking questions to you to the teacher and to others 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 immerse you into the material you are reading and therefore expand your mental capacities more than almost anything else.

5 tips for staying motivated

http://www.collegeboard.com/student/plan/boost-you-skills/8454.html

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 activities

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

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 assignments are important, studying

For a midterm exam takes priority 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 in you’ve done in the past think about it in a different way. If you 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.

One approach that has been proven effective is called the Cornell not taking system. Here are some of its methods. Start by using the main section of your page to take down your notes during class. Be sure to leave space on the left side of the page and the bottom. Things to keep in mind:

1.       Get the speakers main point. Don’t write down every word you hear.

2.       Leave blanks in your notes to add explanations later.

3.       Organize as you write. Pay attention to cues such as repetition and emphasis.

4.       Indicate main and supporting points as you go.

5.       Jot down key vocabulary, important facts and formulas.

Ask questions if you’re confused it’s better to ask while the material is fresh in your mind.

Distance education: is a virtual classroom for you? Part 3

Challenging aspects of distance education

Lack in person interaction: some educators argue that both teacher students and students contact are essential to learning. In a distance learning classroom you may be able to participate in class discussions online in chat room, message boards or web conferences but it’s not the same as being with other students in a class room

Different levels of quality: Much distance education programs supply an excellent learning experience but others may not research any program before signing on to make sure is rigorous enough. If you are choosing your own program it’s rigorous enough. If you are choosing your own program, look into its accreditation before enrolling.

The need to self-start distance education lets you make your own schedules if you have a hard time getting motivated this might not be the ideal educational setting for you

              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 everything you want. Because distance education lets you take classes outside regular school hours, it gives you the flexibility to explore all your Ares of interest

·         Advanced and specialized classes. Some schools can’t provide advanced or special classes. Distance education gives you the chance to gain experience in areas that would otherwise remain out reach.

Voicing your goals to someone else can help you make decisions and figure out your priorities. It can also help you judge whether you can do both work and study successfully. To help answer this question ask yourself:

·         What kind of study habits do I have?

·         Do I make a good use of my available time?

·         Will I be able to manage my schedule effectively if I take on a part time job?
