The "C" Student part 3


                   The "C" Student

                               Part 3

 

6. EFFORT: "C" students are capable of sufficient effort, but either fail to realistically evaluate the effort needed to accomplish a task successfully, or lack the desire to meet the challenge. They put forth very little effort. They don't realize that they will be rewarded according the amount of effort they put into a project. Little effort= bad results.

 

7. COMMUNICATIONS: "C" students communicate in ways that often limit comprehension or risk misinterpretation. Ideas are not well formulated before they are expressed. Poor listening/reading habits inhibit matching inquiry and response.

 

8. RESULTS: "C" students obtain mediocre or inconsistent results on tests. They have some concept of what is going on but clearly have not mastered the material.

reflection about the costa concordia


Reflection:  I think the captains choose the wrong because he shouldn’t throw himself over the water because he might risks his life and could have been hurt. He also chooses the wrong because he was accusing someone for a violating law. its also his fault for putting the passengers life on danger.

Summary: it was mostly about a captain that was driving a boat he was driving close to the land that the costa Concordia hit the rock off to Tuscany coast. The captain was the first person to get out of the boat but it should been the people get out first. He also accused someone of violating the law. He was placed under house arrest of accused of causing the disaster and then jump ship before the evacuation was complete.

                Part 2

CURIOSITY:”c” students seldom explore topics deeper than their face value. They lack vision and bypass interconnectedness of concepts. Immediate relevancy is often their singular test for involvement.

3. RETENTION: “c” students retain less information and for shorter periods. Less effort seems to go toward organizing and associating learned information with previously acquired knowledge. They display short-term retention by relying on cramming sessions that focus on details, not concepts.

4. ATTITUDE: “C” students are not visibly committed to class. They participate without enthusiasm. Their body language often expresses boredom.

5. TALENT:  “c” students vary enormously in talent. Some have exceptional ability but show undeniable signs of poor self-management or bad attitudes. Others are diligent but simply average in academic ability.

1. ATTENDANCE: “C” students are often late and miss class frequently. They put other priority ahead of academic work. In some cases, their health or constant fatigue renders them physically unable to keep up with the demands of high-level performance. They think it is “cool” to be tardy because it makes them think they are big shots. Skipping class is another downfall for the “C” average student.
PREPARATION: “C” students may prepare their assignments constantly, but often in a perfunctory manner. Their work may be sloppy or careless. At times it is incomplete or late. They postpone homework in order to text with friends, visit   friends   visit friends on Facebook,                                                   or send tweets to some of their followers. They take shortcuts to complete academic assignments. They are short sighted because they can’t see the long range destruction of taking short cuts. IT NEVER PAYS OFF.

Successful students can be distinguished from the average student by their attitudes and behaviors. Below are some profiles that typically distinguish between an “A” student and a “C” student. Where do you fit in this scheme?

 

 

The “A” Student – An Outstanding Student

 

1.  ATTENDANCE: “A” students have virtually perfect attendance. Their commitment to the class is a high priority and exceeds other temptations.

 

2. PREPARATION: “A” students are prepared for class. They always read the assignment. Their attention to detail is such that they occasionally can elaborate on class examples.

 

3. CURIOSITY: “A” students demonstrate interest in the class and the subject. They look up or dig out what they don’t understand. They often ask interesting questions or make thoughtful comments.

 

4. RETENTION: “A” students have retentive minds and practice making retentive connections. They are able to connect past learning with the present. They bring a background of knowledge with them to their classes. They focus on learning concepts rather than memorizing details.
