Planning for Success

In the past, time-management has always been a challenge for me. Days of not getting anything done and procrastination lead me to only have feelings of guilt and anxiety in the end. From my Learning Skills class, I have gained useful techniques to help plan out my day better and use time to my advantage. I now have the skills necessary to set reasonable goals for myself and accomplish them within the day, month, or years ahead. Not only will this help me in school but my personal life as well. Now, I feel competent and able to complete all the tasks I want to get done by a specific time. Days of procrastination are a thing from the past!

I Learned a lot In Learning Skills

Learning skills class was good for me because it made me improve myself. This class helped me to think of ways to plan for my future. I first thought the class would involve common sense, but there was a lot of good information about critical thinking, test taking, note taking, and planning. If it weren't for this class, I wouldn't be very prepared as a student.

Be a Master Student

In this class, I learned a way to become a maseter student. There are lots of ways; Planning, Memory, Reading, Notes, Communicating, Thinking, and Techonology. Especially, I was interested in Memory and Thinking. When I study for the exams, I need both techonologies. I want to improve them for getting much more grades. First, the most important thinng in memorizing is visualization. If I draw the mind map in my brain or I organize the summary, it will be easy to memorize. Another important thing is that I write an explanation of the key words by own words. Second, when I read an article, I always have to think and consider about an issue. Thinking is the most important thing in learning something. Then I should share ideas with other people. By doing so, I can expand the ideas and look at the issue from different view. I think they are important points to become a master student.

Back in School

Being back to school when you haven't been back since 02' has been an experience. I have learned study skills like communication if there's no communication nothing will get accomplish this I will be able to apply with the courses I am going to take in the future as well as life. Also learned that I still have really bad planning skills, and school is very time consuming. I'm stoked on myself for putting myself through school and that I have made the decsion to be here. This was a good class to take to get you in the groovel of school and becoming a Master Student.
