                                      profile of a successful student
                                                                 part 1

a successful students takes responsibility for his/her own learning online learning can be a powerful stimulating engaging experience for the students that can work and think independently. however, since most--if not all-- of the learning takes place on your own time  you will not have the kind of direct supervision you would in a classroom.online learning therefore requires a significant commitment from you. all education comes down to what your   willing to invest in the experience-- this is particular true in the online environment commitment self discipline and self motivation are all the key qualities to ensuring success in an online course.
is comfortable and confident with written communication reading and writing are the basis of most online courses so its critical that you feel comfortable with this form of communication. while some course contain modules that include videos or other activities all of them require significant amounts of reading. and nearly all your communications with your class mates and your instructor will be writing. if these are weak areas for you, you will want to address those issues prior to enrolling or while enrolled in an online course. the psu writing center is available to assist you.is willing to be a member of a online community.

                       Student success statement
‘’Is our duty to concentration all our influence to make popular that which is sound and good and to make unpopular that which is unsound and not good’’


Reflection: this means that all the popular thing in our life there going to have to sound good. And all the unpopular things in life they are not good and they are just bad for us. So also that the popular things they are obviously good for us and it has to be going good.

ex: a example is that i got to school to get a education and not have a hard time in life.also when a teacher works she teaches because she want her students to learn and be smart.

9… don’t cram for exams. Successful students know what divided periods of study are more effective then cram sessions and they practice it.
If there is one thing that study skills specialists agree on it is that disturbed study better than massed late night last ditch efforts known as cramming. You will earn more remember more, and earn higher grade by studying in four, one hour a night sessions Friday exam than studying in for four hours straight on Thursday night. Short, concentrated preparatory efforts are more efficient and rewarding than wasteful inattentive last moment marathons. Yet, so many students fail to learn thistledown 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 project and expecting to make a high score the next day is like planting watermelon the next day. Plus cramming for a test or project doesn’t help you academically so why even does it, plan ahead prepare ahead give yourself plant of days and weeks to prepare for upcoming accountability opportunities.

               Student success statement
               ‘’what’s right isn't always popular, what’s popular isn't always right.’’
This means that if though some thing is always right it doesn't mean that you have to do it. You could make some changes and make things little bit different.  You could always choose a different path just because is popular means that you should go out and do it because everyone else is doing it. You have to choose what is right thing to do for you!

7…. Understand that actions after learning. Successful students know their personal behavior affect their feelings and emotions which in turn can affect learning.

If you act in a certain way that normally produces particular feelings you will begin to experience those feelings. Act like your bored and you will become bored. Act like you’re disinterested and you will become disinterested. So 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, nod occasionally, take notes ask question’s. Not only will you benefit directly from your actions your classmates and professor may also get more excited and enthusiastic.

8…talk about what they are learning successful students get to know something well enough that they can put into words. Talking about something. With friends or classmates is not only good. For checking whether or not you know something it’s approve learning tool. Transferring ideas into words provides the most direct path for moving knowledge from short term to a long term memory; you really don’t know material until you can put it into words. So next time you study don’t do it silently. Talk about notes, problems, readings, etc. with friends, recite to chair, organize an oral study group, pretend your teaching your peers talk learning produces a whole how host of memory traces that result in learning

                  high school graduation
                       pleasure or pain
reflection: it is pleasure because then you will start a good new life. you are responsible for your problems and you can do anything you want your parents are no longer in charge of you. also you could get  job and you could be proud of yourself because you worked had in school and did  all your work.

                           5-6
5. don't sit in the back room. successful students minimize classroom distraction that interfere with learning.
students want the best seat avaible for their entertainment dollars, but willingly seek the worst seat for their eductional dollars. students who sit in the back cannot possibly be the proffessors teamate see no. 4. why do they expose theselves to the temperture of iactive classroom experences and distractions of all the people between them and their instructors? of course we jniw they choose the back of the classroom because they seek invisibility or anonymity, both of which are antithetical to efficient and effective learning, if you are trying not to be part of the class, why, then, are you wasting your time? push your hot buttons is there something else you should be doing.

6.... take good notes. successful students take notes that are understandable and organized and review them often
 why out something into your notes and  you dont understand? asks the 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 to learn more. the more you learn then the less you will have to learn later and the less time it will take because you wont have to include some deciphering time also. the whole purpose of taking notes is to use them an duse them often. the more you use them the more they approve.
