Test-Taking

Part 2

During the test

Read the directions.
It’s important that you follow the instructions exactly. For example, some questions may have more than one correct answer.

Answer every question.

Unless there is a penalty for wrong answers, try to answer every question; you may be able to get partial credit for those you begin but don’t complete correctly.

Ask questions.

If a question isn’t clear, talk to your teacher. If that’s not possible, explain your answer in the margin.

Read between the Lines

Make a judgment about the site’s reliability based on your own analysis of the site and the information it contains. Here are some ways to do this:

·       Look for facts you know or can check with a trusted source. If the site gets those facts right, it’s more likely that the other facts on the site are also accurate.

·       Study the language used. Is it angry, satiric, or overly impassioned? This may indicate that the site is biased.

·       Consider whether the arguments are logical and backed up by evidence, and whether the site presents only one point of view.

·       Check the links to the sources that the author acknowledges. Scholarly writing, whether in print or online, should include a bibliography.

“Your future is created by what you do today, not tomorrow”

Robert Kiyosaki

Reflection: I think it’s true that your future depends on the choices you make right now and not tomorrow. The most important time is now, the Present time. The choices you make now will affect everything whether it’s a good decision or a bad one. The choices you made in the past no longer matter or the ones you will make the future. It all depends on the choices you make now because what you do now will soon be future and the past.

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 classes outside regular school hours, it gives you the flexibility to explore all your areas of interest.

·       Advanced and specialized classes: some school can’t provide advanced and specialized classes. Distance education gives you the chance to gain experience in areas that would otherwise remain out of reach.
