Off to a good start


Blog 5

I am happy with what I have done so far this school year. I am staying on top of all of work that I need to get done and I am not fallowing behind in any of my classes. The thing that I have found the most difficult this year is the transition form high school work to the college work. When you have to read something you really need to go to class with a good understanding of it because the teacher will not be going over it with you but to have discus about what you have read and your thought. One thing that I am a little disappointed about is some of my test score I think that I might have to change the way I am studying so I can get the best score on my test and also so I can have a better understanding of it. I liked the idea of the knowledge vault because it is a good way keep what you learned for when you may need it in the future. I think will be one of the goals I will set for myself so I have a record of everything I leaned that is easy to get to. The most important daily practice that I have used in college to help me get better grades and to keep on my work is keeping a calendar. I was looking at an article about study tips for college students and it said a lot of the study habits we learned in the past are not good. I looked at some of their suggestions and thought some of the ideas were good like alternating study places and working in groups. Even though I am happy with what I have done so far this year in school I think I will still try some new things to advance my own self -improvement. I am not sure what I will do differently but I am going to try out a couple of things I learned about and see what works best for my study habits.
