Now let’s move to suggestion #5. Get to be “Notable”. Attend classes so you can record class notes. Friends might help a bit, but they may do what you are doing – staying away. This is a DIY project! Class notes are vital clues to what the professor thinks is the most important material for you to learn. Teachers the world over are pleased to see students quoting what they said in class. This is proof you
[4] The next one is obvious but worth repeating. Use Time Wisely. So you are the most organized person? Thinks procrastinating is a cognizable offence? Fine. But time is finite. And there’s a huge demand on this scarce resource in college. Here are some tips for using time wisely: (a) Take on and finish the harder tasks first. Once it is done and behind you, you are sure to have enough time to finish the easier t
Let’s look at the other ways to get better grades. All from a professor, with my inputs. [2] Master Your Professors: Every professor has a different personality and system for running his/her classes, so it makes sense to find out what the professor wants. And you need to do that early in the semester. Here are some ways to master your professors: (a) Understand course expectations. Most professors give out a cla
“As a college professor, I am often asked for my advice on how students can get better grades,” says Randall S. Hansen, Ph.D. “And after a couple of years of refining my ideas, I have developed these 10 tips.” He assures you these tips work, whether you are a first-year student or a senior, whether at a small college or a large university. So, if you are struggling with grades and interested in raising your
“Write on the importance of good grades,” said the editor. I wondered: when did good grades become not important? Isn’t it why we are in a classroom? Then the penny dropped. There is a thinking rollback. You don’t go to school to stay at the top. “If something is worth doing, it’s worth doing well” (Shakespeare?) is all crap. You attend school for that certificate, your passport to a job. As long as y
Remember Dr. Seuss? But then when did you forget him? What a lot of us probably do not know is that he insisted on a set of rules for writing with “discipline”. We also don’t know, at least I didn’t till I stumbled on it, that he wrote neat verses about “being brief”. The poem about being brief by Theodor Seuss Geisel, aka Dr. Seuss. It has often been said there’s so much to be read, you never ca
Have cellphones been successfully used in classrooms? These are the claims: Some students have used free services like iPadio or an instructional slide show with pictures and video with sites like Flickr to create podcasts. Now that’s bound to be impressive in a class presentation. Students have also taken part in a student response system using resources like Poll Everywhere which teachers have welcomed as usefu
So, how can cellphones help? In a number of ways, say those who would like to see students displaying their latest gizmos in class. All it needs is responsible use. [1] Make use of the basic tools in the cellphone, they say. Start with the clock, calculator, calendar and notepad and move on to more sophisticated tasks. Connect with professors through Twitter. Get information on demand with tools like ChaCha or Goog
I already discussed it in this blog, but since the matter has gone front page, let’s take another look. New York City has banned the use of cellphones in schools. Is this justified? I ca see how opinion will be divided. Those who went through the education grind not long ago – and successfully too – are likely to wonder: What is all this fuss about cellphones in schools? Isn’t it obvious they distract? Can
OK, let’s look at Jerry’s other suggestions for staying awake in class. Even a non-listener needs to look as if he’s awake, right? A lot of the times it is pure boredom that puts the temptation to sleep in front of you. [1] Solution: Engage in something more interesting. Give yourself distraction time. Play Sudoku if you can, but better options would be starting on the homework assignment (that’s time saved
