Student Success Statement


              Student Success Statement

“Continuous effort, not strength or intelligence, is the key to unlocking our potential.”

                             Liane Cordes

I do agree with statement. I think it means that trying your best and not giving up is the best thing you can do. On example is when she someone has bad grades the only thing they can do is put a lot of effort and that’s how they will get a better grade.

Research with attitude

Conduct your research with attitude of a skeptic. As you examine websites for clues that they’re trustworthy, ask these questions:
Who wrote the web page? If you can’t identify the individual or organization responsible for the information, don’t use it.

What are the author’s qualifications for writing on the subject?

Has the article passed through an editorial process designed to ensure quality and accuracy?

What is the website’s purpose? Look for motives ------ like selling products or winning votes---- that could result in biased or incomplete information.

Is the information accurate? Is it up-to-date?

Where did the author get this information?

Using the web wisely

Thanks to the web, information is easy to find. However, it’s also easy to post something online. Anyone can do it. You’ve probably used the internet to do research for a paper, to help you decide with product to buy, or to form an opinion about current events. Looking up information online is fast and convenient. But when you do online research, it’s important to find sites you can trust. Many websites claim to have the facts, but are filled with errors. Others present information in a biased way- they only give one side of an argument. How can you tell a reliable source from an unreliable one? Also, it is critical that you post online only that which is descent and appropriate, never anything pornographic, vulgar, indecent, out of taste, untruthful, or obscene. Post those things that will make a good name for you and your organization, that will promote goodwill and be of benefit to the world.

Gilbert Arland quote


“When an archer misses the mark, he turns and looks for the fault within himself. Failure to hit the bulls-eye is never the fault of the target. To improve your aim, improve yourself.”

                         Gilbert Arland

I do agree with this statement because it’s not the fault of the target it’s mostly are fault for not practicing at that well. Always keep trying to accomplish shooting really well. On example is when you don’t make it to the basketball team it’s mostly are fault for not trying are best to make but to keep practicing to make it.

Recite

At the end of each section, look up from the text and in your own words recite an answer to your question for that section. Then write down your answer. Be sure to provide examples that support it. Now repeat the question read and recite steps for each section of the chapter. First ask a question for the next section. Then read to find the answer. Finally, recite the answer in your own words and jot it down. The written questions and answer can help you study in the future.

Review

After completing the chapter, review your notes. Identify the main points by looking for the most important idea in each section. Recite, or write, a brief summary of the assignment. Review your study notes every week to help you remember the information. When it’s time to prepare for your tests, you’ll find you’ve created an invaluable study guide.

Student Success Statement


            Student Success Statement

“The first law of success…. Is concentration; to bend all the energies to one point, and to go directly to that point, looking neither to the right nor the left.”

                      William Matthews

I do believe in this statement because the good decision leads to concentration. It mostly saying looks in the future and never look back at the past. On example is when  a person is doing good in school but was doing bad in her other school she does not need to look back at the past but in new school future.

Question

As you survey the text, ask a question for each section. Ask what, why, how, when, who and where questions as they relate to the content. Here’s how you can create questions:

·     Turn the title, headings or subheadings into questions.

Rewrite the questions at the end of the chapter or after each subheading in your own words.

Write down your questions. Questions help you pay attention, understand the text better and recall the information more easily later on.

Read

Read one section of the chapter at a time, actively looking for an answer to your questions for that section. Pay attention to bold and italicized text that authors use to make important points.

Be sure to review everything in that section, including tables, graphs and illustrations----- these features can communicate an idea more powerfully than written text.
