Student Success Statement

“Always do right.”

Mark Twain

Reflection: I agree with this statement because always doing the right just makes you even more of a better person. It’s never too late to start being a better person and not only for yourself but for others all around you too. All it takes is the courage to say that you will not be a negative person anymore. Even the smallest amount of kindness can make the biggest impact in someone’s life.

During Class

One approach that has been proven to effective is called the Cornell Note 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 speaker’s main points. 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 cures such as repetition and emphasis.

4.   Indicate main and supporting points as you go.

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

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