Chapter 1:
LEARNING STYLES & CHARACTERISTIC OF SUCCESSFUL STUDENTS

 
8 Steps to college success


1) ATTEND ALL CLASSES
- One of the best ways to be successful in college is to attend all classes. Although you will be tested on material from the course text, most of the test questions will come from lectures.


2) BECOME AN ACTIVE LEARNER
- Unlike high school, in college, you can’t learn all of the material just reading over it a couple of times. You need to write and recite the information to get it into long-term memory.


3) PARTICIPATE IN CLASS
- If you feel a bit uncomfortable participating in class, set a goal to either ask or answer one question during each class.


4) GET TO KNOW YOUR LECTURES
- Take a few minutes and stop to talk with your lecturer before or after class or during office hours. Ask a question about the material or check on your progress in the course.


5) FORM STUDY GROUPS WITH FRIEND
- Forming study groups is a very effective strategy for enhancing learning. This is because groups share unique insights and learn from each other. And friends can also teach confusing concepts they understand to other friends.


6) STAY UP TO DATE WITH YOUR WORK
- Always alert about the date you need to submit your work or deadline date to submit your assignment. Don't delay the work because if you delay the work it will become more and more.


7) BE RECEPTIVE TO CHANGE
If the strategies that you used in high school aren’t working, ask your lecturer or tutor for suggestions for different ways to learn. Even though the strategies that they suggest may not seem like they’ll work, you must be willing to give them a chance.


8) WORK HARD THIS SEMESTER
- It’s important to us to always set in our mind to the our best and work hard to something that we want to achieve.

Record
During the lecture, record in the main column as many meaningful facts and ideas as you can. Write legibly.

Reduce
As soon after as possible, summarize these facts and ideas concisely in the Cue Column. Summarizing clarifies meanings and relationships, reinforces continuity, and strengthens memory.

Recite
Cover the Note Taking Area, using only your jottings in the Cue Column, say over the facts and ideas of the lecture as fully as you can, not mechanically, but in your own words. Then, verify what you have said.

Reflect
Draw out opinions from your notes and use them as a starting point for your own reflections on the course and how it relates to your other courses. Reflection will help prevent ideas from being inert and soon forgotten.

Review
Spend 10 minutes every week in quick review of your notes, and you will retain most of what you have learned.

ACTIVITY 1
1 ) Calculate the GPA for Amelia Ameer for her first semester

2 ) Calculate what would have happened if Amelia had earned a B in Chemistry.


3.00 x 4 = 12.00

GPA = 52.00 ÷ 17 = 3.06

TOTAL POINT =

46.68 - 6.68 + 12.00 =

52#


3 ) What is the difference in GPA?


3.06 - 2.75 =

0.31# ACTIVITY 2 4 ) Now calculate Amelia GPA for the next semester

5 ) What would happen if Amelia had received a D in Cell Bio instead of the B+?


CELL BIO = 4 x 1.00 = 4.00

TOTAL POINT EARNED =

50.33 - 13.32 + 4.00 = 41.01

GPA = 41.01 ÷ 18 =

2.38#


6 ) What is the difference in GPA?


2.80 - 2.28 =

0.52#


7 ) What is the difference in CGPA?


CGPA = (46.68 + 50.33) ÷ (18 + 17) =

2.77#


8 ) What does Amelia have to do in order to achieve a GPA of 3.00 in the 2nd semester if her CGPA falls below 2.50 in the 1st semester?
