Student Success Statement

Student Success Statement

“Everyone is the architect of their own learning.”

Claudius

Reflection: I agree with this statement because no one else can learn for you besides yourself. You build your own learning therefore you are the architect of your own knowledge. Only you can build your knowledge because it all depends on whether or not you choose to learn. All the things you know are because you chose to learn them instead of ignoring them and not know anything.

Tip 5: Keep a List of Questions

When you feel confused about something you’re reading, write down any questions you have. Sometimes your questions are answered as you read further. If not, don’t be afraid to ask for help. Remember, teachers create assignments; they’ve read the text and are familiar with them. When you have specific questions, your teachers can provide answers that will help you better understand the material. Learning is rooted in questions developed and asked by the learner. Asking questions to yourself, to the teacher, and to others, is a great learning method. When you cease to ask questions, you cease to exist to a great extent. Read actively by silently asking questions as you read. Questioning immerses you into the material you are reading and therefore will expand your mental capacities more than anything else.

The philosopher Sir Francis Bacon said, “Knowledge is power.” Improving your reading comprehension is the key to gaining important knowledge and making the most of your education. So pick up a book and… a pen.

Getting the most Out of a Session

Here are some tips to help your group get the most out of each study session:

·      

   Decide what you’re going to do in advanced.

·       Prepare the session, so you can make the most of your time together.

·       Take turns teaching to reinforce your own knowledge.

·       Stick to the session topic.

By supplementing your individuals study with a study group, you can reinforce what you’ve learned, deepen your understanding of complex concepts, and maybe even make a few new friends. Remember that a friend is a person who encourages you to do your best and to achieve on q high level, one who pushes you to try a little harder and to be a little better. If someone pulls you down the wrong trails of life, them those people are not friends, (they are actually your enemies), and you must avoid them at all coast. Whoever said learning can be fun? Learning is enjoyable and exciting when you study with others.
