How to Take on College Studying: Part 2


How to Take on College Studying
Part 2
Choose Where to Study
Where you should study depends on two factors: the environment in which you are best able to concentrate and the type of work you are planning to do.
             ·       The best places to study have good light, a comfortable temperature and enough desk space – usually your dorm room, your apartment or the library.
             ·       For completing problem sets or brainstorming possible tests questions, you may want to study with a group or at least in a setting where fellow students are available for discussion.
             ·       When you are reading book chapters or working on a research paper, you are probably better off in a less social environment.

Improve Your Study Habits
Here are simple steps you can take to help you get a handle on studying:
·       Have a routine for where and when you study.
·       Choose reasonable and specific goals that you can accomplish for each study session.
·       Do things that are harder or require more intense thought at your most productive time of the day.
·       Take breaks if you need them so you don’t waste time looking at material but not absorbing it.
·       Get to know students whom you respect and can study with or contact to ask questions.
·       Keep up with the workload and seek help when you need it.

Report: CTR Great Sportsmanship

Report: At a cross-country meet, a magic touch from one runner to another

What Jenna Huff did was one of the most extraordinary things anyone has ever done. She could have just won the race, but her knowledge of CTR told her otherwise. That's why she went to help Den (who had broken her hip) and helped her to win the race. Even though Jenna didn't win the race, she won a very prestigious award. Jenna did the right thing and chose the right.

Develop Good Study Habits
In college, you’ll need to build on the study skills that you learned in high school. The demands of a college class are probably more rigorous than those you are used to.

You can succeed by knowing what to expect and how to handle it. Think of college as a full-time job, in which you spend 40 hours a week on class, labs, study groups and doing homework.

Being organized and using your time well are essential. Learn more about time management, and use the guidelines below to develop your study skills.
Decide When to Study
Work out about how many hours you need to study every day. Then make a schedule.
        ·       Figure out what blocks of time you have available throughout the day, in the evenings and on weekends.
        ·       Consider what time of day you are the most alert – there are morning people and night owls – and try to schedule your studying accordingly.
        ·       Think about whether you do better studying for a few hours at a time or sitting down for marathon sessions.

"Choosing the right is always the right thing to do."

Alex Linares

Reflection:

There will be never be anything better than to choose the right. Choosing the right will always be the correct thing because it will lead us to a great and safe life. For example, if people tell you to choose drugs, and you know that drugs are bad, don't join them. If you join them, your days of choosing the right are over. But if you don't join them, you will still be a CTR champion for doing the right thing and not take drugs. In the end, you will realize that CTR is the right thing to do.


10 Time Management Tips for Students: Tips 5-10


10 Time Management Tips for Students
Tip 5-10
Tip 5. Review Your Notes Every Day.
Reviewing helps you reinforce what you’ve learned, so you need less time to study before a test. You’ll also be ready if you get called on in class of have to take a pop quiz.

Tip 6. Get a Good Night’s Sleep.
Your brain needs rest to perform at its peak. Lack of sleep makes the day seem longer and your tasks seem more difficult.

Tip 7. Communicate You Schedule to Others.
If phone calls or text messages are proving to be a distraction, tell your friends that you are only available at certain times of day and not to expect a response at other times.

Tip 8. Become a Taskmaster.
Give yourself a time budget and plan your activities accordingly. Figure out how much free time you have each week before you add any commitments.

Tip 9. Don’t Waste Time Agonizing.
Instead of agonizing and procrastinating, just do it. Wasting an entire evening worrying about something that you’re supposed to be doing is not procrastinating, and can increase your stress.

Tip 10. Determine Your Priorities.
You can’t do everything at once. Establish the importance of each item. Then set realistic goals that are attainable.

"It's better to be alone than to be in bad company."

Reflection:

People tend to be alone because they don't want to be around people that do bad things. Even though they are alone, they are choosing the right because they are not part of the bad things the other people are doing. Even if you are alone and with nobody around you, you must continue to choose the right, even though others are choosing the wrong.

Tips 1-4
Organizing Your Life
Managing your time well is an important element of success – especially if you’re a student. If you set priorities that fit your needs and lifestyles, you’ll have a better chance of achieving your goals.

Here are some tips for taking control of your time and organizing your life.

Tip 1. Make a To-Do List Every Day.
Put things that are most important at the top and do them first. And don’t forget to reward yourself for your accomplishments.

Tip 2. Use Spare Minutes Wisely.
When you’re commuting on the bus or train, use the time to get some reading done.

Tip 3. It’s Okay to Say No.
If your friend asks you to go to the movies on a Thursday night and you have an exam the next morning, realize that it’s okay to say no. Keep your short- and long-term priorities in mind.

Tip 4. Find the Right Time.
You’ll work more efficiently if you figure out when you do your best work. For example, if your brain handles math better in the afternoon, don’t wait to do it until late at night.

"Improvement begins with I."

ANON

Reflection:

In order to improve on something, one must improve themselves before anything. To improve one another, one must see all the things he has wrong and change them to make them right. Then, the path to choosing the right will begin, and once you have started that path, you will notice that improvement has begun, and that;s when you'll know that you have done the right thing.

3)  Heart: Always do what is right so your heart, your conscience, will feel peaceful. When you do wrong, your conscience will prick you create regretful sensations within your heart. When you do what you honestly feel, you won’t have any regrets. Your heart is your internal compass—it gives you direction and discernment. Just like a magnetic compass gives direction, even true north, your personal compass, your heart, will point you in the true north, the exact directions and paths you need to trod.

4)  Soul: Study scriptures and other sacred literature daily. In other words, feed your spirit because your spirit needs spiritual food just like your physical body needs temporal food to survive. Pondering, meditating, and reflecting are excellent Soul-sharpening activities. Try writing your thoughts, feelings, aspirations, concerns, and decisions in a diary or journal. Writing helps you focus and make good decisions.

Get into the habit of daily improving your body (physical fitness), you mind, your heart, and your soul.

Student Success Statement

"If you do what's right, you have nothing to fear."

ANON

Reflection:

Why do people get scared whenever they choose the right? Probably because they don't want other people to call them names, but the people that call them names are people that choose the wrong. So, instead of being scared of choosing the right, just do it. Whenever you do the right thing, nobody can judge you for that because you have shown that you are a good person. Choose the right and all the fear will be gone.

Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw
Teens should never get too busy living to take time to renew themselves. When teens “sharpen the saw” they are keeping their personal self sharp so that they can better deal with life. It means regularly renewing and strengthening the four key dimensions of life—body, mind, heart, and soul 

    1)   Body. Eat wholesome foods, fruits, vegetables, legumes. Avoid illegal drugs, smoking, alcohol, tobacco products, tattooing. Exercise regularly and effectively. Get plenty of rest at night. Get to bed early at night and get up early each morning. “Early to bed to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.”

    2)   Mind. Think positively. Read. Study. Think. Analyze. Seek to read a good book each month. Then each week. Ask intelligent questions. Observe. Develop your mind through “self-talk.”

Student Success Statement

"Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much."

Helen Keller

Reflection:

In order for people to understand that choosing the right is a good thing, one must need more people to join him and choose the right. With one person, people will think that choosing the right is just a waste of time. But with more people helping you out to choose the right, people will admire us and help us in our fight to show others that CTR is the correct path to take. Together, we can change people from CTW people to CTR champions. 

7 Habits of Highly Successful Teens: Habit 6

Habit 6
Habit 6: Synergize
Synergy is achieved when two or more people work together to create something better than either could alone. Through this habit, teens learn it doesn't have to be “your way” or “my way” but rather a better way, a higher way. Synergy allows teens to value differences and better appreciate others. Synergy is the reward, the delicious fruit you’ll taste as you get better at living the other habits, especially at thinking Win-Win and seeking first to understand. Learning to synergize is like learning to form V formations with others instead of trying to fly through life solo. You’ll be amazed at how much faster and farther you’ll go. Synergy doesn't just happen. It’s a process. You have to get there. And the foundation of getting there is this: Learn to celebrate differences.

A good band is a great example of synergy. It’s not just the drums, or the guitar, or the sax, or the vocalist, it’s all of them together that make up the “sound.” Each band member brings his or her strengths to the table to create something better than each could alone. No instrument is more important than another, just different.

7 Habits of Highly Successful Teens
Habit 5
5. Seek First to Understand, and then to be Understood
Because most people don’t listen very well, one of the great frustrations in life is that many don’t feel understood. This habit will ensure your teen learns the most important communication skill there is: active listening.
Why is this habit the key to communication? It’s because the deepest need of the human heart is to be understood. Everyone wants to be respected and valued for who they are—a unique, one-of-a-kind, never-to-be-cloned individual. People won’t expose their soft middles unless they feel genuine love and understanding. Once they feel it, however, they will tell you more than you may want to hear. People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care.
Listen with your eyes, heart, and ears. 7 percent of communication is contained in the words we use. The rest comes from body language (53 percent) and how we say words, or the tone and feeling reflected in our voice (40 percent).
Most people are eager to talk and had rather talk than listen. We have one mouth and two ears. This means we should listen twice as much as we talk. Learn to listen and listen to learn.
Listen, really listen, for understanding.
Seek first to understand then to be understood—LISTEN.

Student Success Statement by Sean Covey

Student Success Statement

"So often, in our quest to be more popular and to be part of the "in- group," we lose sight of things that are far more important."

Sean Covey

Reflection:

There are people that want to be part of the popular group, and all of a sudden, they do things that that are not correct, and they start forgetting the values of CTR. For example, if a group orders us to do something in order to be popular, but the order is to embarrass someone, and we do that, we are no longer CTR champions. So is it better to be popular and choose the wrong or be unpopular and choose the  right? The decision is clear but the decision is not left to me,  but the person who is reading this. Are you a CTW person or are you a CTR champion? 

7 Habits of Highly Successful Teens: Habit 4


7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens
Habit 4
4. Think Win-Win
Teens can learn to foster the belief that it is possible to create an atmosphere of Win-Win in every relationship. This habit encourages the idea that in any given discussion or situation both parties can arrive at a mutually beneficial solution. Your teen will learn to celebrate the accomplishments of others instead of being threatened by them. Win-Win is a belief that everyone can win. It’s both nice and tough all at once. I won’t step on you, but I won’t be your doormat either. You care about other people and you want them to succeed. But you also care about yourself, and you want to succeed as well. Win-Win is abundant. It is the belief that there’s plenty of success to go around. It’s not either you or me. It’s both of us. It’s not a matter of who gets the biggest piece of the pie. There’s more than enough food for everyone. It’s an all-you-can-eat buffet.

Win-win always creates more. Perhaps the most surprising benefit of thinking Win-Win is the good feelings it brings on. The trust test of whether or not you are thinking Win-Win or one of the alternatives is how you feel. Win-Lose and Lose-Win thinking will cloud your judgment and fill you with negative feelings.

Win-Win will fill your heart with happy and serene thoughts. It will give you confidence. Even fill you with lights. Think Win-Win or no deal.

Student Success Statement

" You cannot do wrong and feel right. It is impossible."

Ezra Taft Benson

Reflection:

Every time you do something that isn't correct, you shouldn't feel like if you have done the right thing. For example, if you hurt someone instead of helping him, you shouldn't feel happy about doing that. Every person who has chosen the wrong feels a guilt inside of them that tell them that wasn't the right thing to do. Instead, you should feel happy that you have chosen the right, and not chosen the wrong. Next time you do something that is wrong, don't feel right about it.

Habits 3: Put First Things First
Habit three is about Will and Will Not power. This helps teens prioritize and manage their time so that they focus and complete the most important things in their lives. Putting first things first also means learning to overcome fears and being strong during difficult times. It’s living life according to what matters most. Putting first things first deals with things that are:
Important or not important, urgent or not urgent. Let’s look at the four quadrants of time management.
Quadrant 1: Things that are Important and Urgent
Quadrant 2: Things that are Important but not Urgent
Quadrant 3: Things that are Not Important but are urgent
Quadrant 4: Things that are not Important and Not Urgent
1.Important & Urgent
2. Important but not Urgent
3. Not Important but are Urgent
4. Not Important and Not Urgent

Quadrant 2 is the ideal place to spend our time, doing things that are important but not urgent. Here’s where priorities come into play. The results for living Quadrant 2 are:
    1.    Control of your life
    2.    Balance
    3.    High Performance

So, in what quadrant are you spending most of your time? The key is to shift as much time as possible into Quadrant 2 and this is accomplished by planning. Spend more time planning and incorporating the most important things first, things that matter most. Keep your eyes on the prize and reach for it.

Student Success Statement

"The only difference between those who have failed and those who have succeeded lies in the difference of their habits. Good habits are the key to all success. Bad habits are the unlocked door to failure. Thus, the first law I will obey, which precedeth all others is--'I will form good habits and become their slaves.' "

Og Mandino

Reflection:

People have different habits that make them the person that they are. For some, successful habits are what have made them good people, even though they might have failed in the beginning. But others have used their bad habits to try to cheat their way through life without suffering the hard tasks of work. These people have made a big mistake by cheating their way through life because unlike successful people, people with bad habits are people that choose the wrong. For example, people cheat on tests so they can get good grades without failing and pass school without doing any type of hard work. Peole with good habits are people that know what CTR stands for. So, even though you might fail at first, continue to choose hte right and you will live a life with no regret.

Habit 2: Begin With the End in Mind
If teens aren’t clear about where they want to end up in life, about their values, goals, and what they stand for, they will wander, waste time, and be tossed to and fro by the opinions of others. Help your teen create a personal mission statement which will act as a road map and direct and guide his decision-making process.

“Keep your eyes on the prize.” Determine your desired prize and don’t quit until you have realized the achievement of your prize. Then set another prize, another goal or desire that you would really like to achieve. Begin with the achievement of your prize in mind. Visualize and then realize. Start by having a target in mind; know where you are going.

One prize or goal you definitely need to establish for yourself is the prize of an honorable graduation from high school-that you will receive your diploma honestly and with integrity—that you earned it with perfect honesty.

"Whether I fail or succeed shall be no man's doing but my own. I am the force."

Elaine Maxwell

Reflection:

Choosing the right or choosing the wrong is nobody's decision but the person itself. When you choose the right, you are the one that made the decision, no one else did. But when you choose the wrong, you made that decision on yourself, no one else made that decision for you. You made that decision to make the wrong move, and you can't blame anybody for the things you have done. So when you are thinking about choosing the wrong, think about who is making the decision, and that person is YOU.

Habit 1
(by Sean Covey but modified)
Habit 1: Be Proactive.

Being proactive is the key to unlocking the other habits. Help your teen take control and responsibility for her life. Proactive people understand that they are responsible for their own happiness or unhappiness. They don’t blame others for their own actions or feelings. Proactive people realize that the ball is in their court, that they are the captain of their own; that they are in control, control of their decisions, thoughts, choices, decisions, goals, actions, and priorities. Proactive people are self-starters; they don’t wait to be told what to do, they press forward with enthusiasm toward the achievement of their assignment, their duties, their responsibilities, their obligations. Choosing to do what is right is a proactive decision. Obey the rules. Obey the law. Obey the coach. Obey the school policies. Obey your parents. Obey with exactness, and great things will come to you. Be Proactive and take the initiative.

Reflection:

Don't ever give up on your dreams. When you have a dream for yourself, it's easy to go off task and forget about it. But when you have a big dream that you think you probably will never achieve, go for it and don't let go of that dream. When it's saying to keep you eyes on the prize, that is the reward of overcoming obstacles and achieving your dreams. Never give up, because one day, your dreams will come true. For example, if you want to make it to the NFL, you start to work hard and never stop working until you have made your dream of making it to the NFL possible. Always have dreams because if you work hard and you keep your eyes on the reward, you will accomplish it.

7 Habits of Highly Successful Teens
By Sean Covey
For teens, life is not a playground, it’s a jungle. And, being the parent of a teenager isn’t any walk in the park, either. In this book, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens, author Sean Covey attempts to provide “a compass to help teens and their parents navigate the problems they encounter daily.”

How will they deal with peer pressure? Motivation? Success or lack thereof? The life of a teenager is full of tough issues and life-changing decisions. As a parent, you are responsible to help them learn the principles and ethics that will help them to reach their goals and live a successful life.

While it’s all well and good to tell kids how to live their lives, “teens watch what you do more than they listen to what you say,” Covey says. So practice what you preach. Your example can be very influential.

Covey himself has done well by following a parent’s example. His dad, Stephen Covey, wrote the book The 7 Habits of Highly Successful People, which sold over 15 million copies. Sean’s a chip off the old block, and no slacker. His own book has rung in a more than respectable 2 million copies sold. Here are seven habits, and some ideas for helping your teen and apply them.

Reflection:

We could be living in a terrible and violent location, but how we act can show what kind of people we are. Even if people around us are choosing the wrong, we should continue to choose the right to show others that not all the people in the neighborhood are bad. When it comes to playing a game, we should play by the rules. For example, if we are playing basketball, we should play nicely so others can treat us nicely. If we play badly, others will treat us badly. So wherever we live and what game we play, we should not stop choosing the right.

...takes responsibility for his/her own learning
Online learning can be a powerful, stimulating, engaging experience for the student who can work and think independently. However, since most—if not all—of the learning takes place on your own time, you will not have the kind of direct supervision you would in a classroom. Online learning therefore requires a significant commitment from you. All education comes down to what you’re willing to invest in the experience—this is particularly true in the online environment. Commitment, self-discipline and self-motivation are all key qualities to ensuring success in an online course!

  is comfortable and confident with written communication
Reading and writing are the basis of most online courses, so it’s critical that you feel comfortable with this form of communication. While some courses contain modules that include videos or other activities, all of them require significant amounts of reading. And nearly all of your communication with your classmates and your instructor will be in writing. If these are weak areas for you, you will want to address those issues prior to enrolling while enrolled in an inline course. The PSU Writing Center is available to assist you.

10. Successful students are good time managers. Successful students do not procrastinate. They have learned that time control is life control and have consciously chosen to be in control of their life.

An element truth: you will either control time or be controlled by it! It’s your choice: you can lead or be led, establish control or relinquish control, steer your own course or follow others. Failure to take control of their own time is probably the no. 1 study skills problem for college students. It ultimately causes many students to become non-students! Procrastinators are good excuse-makers. Don’t make academics harder on yourself than it has to be. Stop procrastinating. And don’t wait until tomorrow to do it!
