Tip5: keep a list of questions

When you feel confused about something you’re reading, write down any questions you have. Sometimes your questions are answered as you further. If not, don’t be afraid to ask for help. Remember, teachers create assignments; they’ve read the texts and are familiar with them when you have specific questions, your teachers can provide answers that will help you better understand the material. Learning is rooted in questions developed and asked by the leaner.

 Asking questions to you, to the teacher, and to the others, is a great learning method. When you cease to exist to a great extent. Read actively by silently asking questions as you read. Questioning immerses you into the material you are reading  and  therefore will expand your mental capacities more than almost anything else.

The philosopher sir Francis bacon said, “ Knowledge is power.” Improving your reading comprehension is the key to gaining important knowledge and making the most of your education . so pick up a book….. and a pen.

Choose the right

When I was teaching basketball, I urged my players to try their hardest to improve on that very day, to make that practice a masterpiece.
This rule is even more important in life than basketball. You have to apply yourself each day to become a little better. By applying yourself to the task of becoming a little better each and every day over a period of time, you will become a lot better. only then i will be able to  approach being the best you can be. it begins by trying to make each day count and knowing you can never make up for a lost day."

Tip 3: Do Research

Literary circuits have written vast numbers of analytical and critical pieces on countless books. If you are having trouble understanding a particular text, do some research and see what knowledgeable sources have to say about it in addition to increasing comprehension, you'll also be showing intimate and scholarly sources, not condensed study guides.

Tips 4: Use a Dictionary

Make sure you have access to a dictionary when you’re reading. You can often figure out the meaning of an unfamiliar word by using context clues, but sometimes you can’t but sometimes you can. Rather than simply skipping over words you don’t know, tale the time to look them up. The results are well worth the effort. Your comprehension will increase greatly, and you’ll build your vocabulary at the same time.

Reading and writing go hand in hand. The better you understand a text, the more likely you are to successfully communicate your thoughts about in writing. So it’s important to develop strong skills in both areas. With that mind, here’s how to improve your reading comprehension.

Tips1-2

Tip 1: Annotate

Be an active reader. Instead of passively reading a text, take notes about important stories elements, key factual information and significant ideas in text.

 Tip 2: note the author’s writing style

Every author writes  with  a purpose using deliberate methods to successfully relate specific information to the audience. When you’re reading, look for patterns in the authors writing. For example, you may notes a repetition of key words, phrases or symbols– or the use of a distinct type of sentence structure. Authors employ these writing strategies to help readers comprehend a central argument or theme, be sure to explore how these techniques create meaning

4.    Find a social support network 

Create a group of people around you who want to help you succeed. Mentors can be teachers or family friends who can give you guidance and help you develop new skills. Counselors can  help you with planning your courses and starting to explore  colleges. You can also reach out to friends  and peers who can motivate you by listening and sharing ideas.

5.    Acknowledge your accomplishments

Give yourself a quick reward when you complete an assignment or task. Take a walk, send an email, get a snack. Then move on to the next project.

To succeed in high school and college, you have to do your best at all times. But sometimes it’s hard to stay motivated, even when you really care about the work you’re doing. Here are five ways to stay on the right track.

1.     Focus on high-impact activities

 The key to success in school is staying focused on your course work. Make a list to get an overall picture of your work load before you start to tackle any of it. Then, make a plan. Although it’s tempting to do the simplest assignments first, those that make more time and effort to accomplish are probably the ones that you’ll learn the most from.

To determine what your priorities are, rank your assignments in their order of importance. Then rearrange your time and devote more energy toward those that have the greater impact on your course work and grades. For example, even though all homework assignments are important, studying for a midterm exam take priority over writing a paragraph for an English class. As you complete each task, think of it as another step on your way to college success.

2. Create New Challenges

Changing your approach can help you stay interested in what you’re doing. If you’ve been given an assignment similar to one you’ve done in the past, think about it in a different way. If you wrote an essay for a creative writing assignment last year try a poem this time. For book reports, pick a history book, instead of another biography.

Take advantages of any free time

If you have long study periods or long bus ride, use the time to review notes, prepare for an upcoming class or start your homework. Flash cards are a great learning tool. They are easy to make, easy to handle and are a marvelous tool to help you learn and remember anything. Punch a hole in the upper left corner of each index card and connect the stack of your flash cards with a ring. Then the cards are bound and not flopping around.   Flash cards bound like this act like a small book with pages you can even have a separate ringed stack for each subject. WHATEVER YOU WANT TO REMEMBER PUT IT ON A CARD.

Study with a friend

Get together with friends and classmates to quiz each other, compare notes and predict test questions. Consider joying a study group.

Communicate 

If you have con concerns about the amount or type of homework you have you might want to talk to your family, teachers or counselors. They can help you understand how much time you need to allot for homework and how to manage your task.

Learn actively and not passively. Be anxiously engages in your studies and you will have great experience. Demonstrate a good attitude toward home assignments, and you will begin to love doing it.

Although very few students love homework, it does serve a purpose. Homework helps you:

·         Reinforce what you’ve learned during the day.

·         Build study habits that are essential in college.

·         Prepare for your classes.

·         Get a sense of progress.

 Here are some tips to help you deal with homework more efficiently and effectively.

Set the method

Create a good study area with everything you need (for example, a calculator). If you don’t have a quiet place at home, try your school or local library.

Know where to begin

Make a list of everything you need to do, and note all deadlines. Do the more difficult assignments first, so you don’t   have to face them at the end.

Study at the same time every day

Even If you don’t have homework every night, use the time to review notes. If sitting down to work is your normal routine, you’ll approach it with less dread. Also, you’ll become a pro at using time productively.

During class

One approach that has been proven effective is called the Cornell note-taking system. Here are some of its methods. Start by using the main section of your page to take down your notes during class. Be sure to leave space on the left side of the page and the bottom. Things to keep in mind:

1.   Get the speakers main points. Don’t write down every word you hear.

 2.   Leave blanks in your notes to add explanations later.

3.   Organize as you write. Pay attention to cures such as repetition and emphasis.

4.   Indicate main and supporting points as you go.

5.   Jot down key vocabulary, important facts and formulas.

6.   Ask questions. If you’re confused, it’s better to ask while the material is fresh in your mind.

Part 4 of 4

Emphasis on the writing word

Most of the communications, as well as the course work, in the distance learning class is written. That’s a plus, because the focused on the written word gives you the opportunity to develop as a writer and strong writing skills are essential to academic success. However, if writing is a serious weakness for you, virtual learning may not be the best educational option for you until you improve your skills. Yes, most of distance education is the written word; therefore, you need to be a good reader, love to read, and love writing also. Most of your assignments will be written and submitted to the instructor in the written format. Your penmanship needs to be excellent, spelling great, sentence structure above average, vocabulary extraordinary. You need to have online access with reliable equipment. If your internet communications at home isn’t working, you can’t do online education from home and will need to go to someplace where you do have access to the internet.

Decide whether it is right for you

Distance education isn’t for everyone, but it just might be for you. You really should seek it out and give it a try. You never know until you try. You might even fall in love with distance education. While distance education may be the perfect alternative for some students, it’s not the right choice for everyone. So carefully consider your unique needs and interest and give distance education a try: then, decide if it is right for you.

Challenging Aspects of Distance Education

·       Lack of in-person interaction: Some educators argue that both teacher-student and student-student contact are essential to learning. In a distance-learning classroom, you may be able to participate in class discussions online in chat rooms, message boards or Web conferences—but it’s not the same as being with other students in a classroom.

 ·       Different levels of quality: Many distance-education programs supply an excellent learning experience, but others may not.

Research any program before signing on to make sure it’s rigorous enough. If you are choosing your own program, look into its accreditation before enrolling.

·       The need to self-start: Distance education lets you make your schedules. If you have a hard time getting motivated, this might not be the ideal educational setting for you.

Positive aspects of distance education

-Independence and time management: taking courses online lets you hone your ability to work on your own. You also gain experience in managing your time efficiently.

-A flexible schedule: school can only provide a certain number of class periods in a single school day, and there may not be enough time for you to take everything you want. Because distance education lets you take classes outside regular school hours, it gives you the flexibility to explore all your areas of interest.

-Advanced and specialized classes: some school can’t provide advanced and specialized classes. Distance education gives you the chance to gain experience in areas that would otherwise remain out of reach.

You may want to take a class that your high school doesn’t offer. Under some circumstances, you can still enroll in the class----through distance learning.

Distance education means taking a class without being physically present where it is being taught. Internet-base technology lets students almost anywhere.

Some high schools agree to recognize distance-learning credits when they don’t have the resources to offer a course themselves. Distance education is often used to increase options in rural areas and for AP courses.

 For you, it might mean doing self-tutorial at home in the evening, or participating in the class that is 1,000 miles away, along with other high school student. Check with your school counselor to see what’s available.

Additional Tips

Although working and going to school is challenging, it can be a rewarding experience if you use some foresight. These tips can help you handle the situation and make the most of your time:

·         Discuss your plans with your family. Balancing the demands of school and work is easier with their support.

·         Start slowly; don’t commit to working a lot of hours immediately.

·         Avoid time conflicts by planning your class and work schedules and far ahead of time as possible

·         Use your time efficiently.  You use 10 minutes waiting in a line to go over a few pages of assigned reading. If your job has a lot of down time and your boss has no objection, you can use slow periods to do schoolwork.

·         If you commute to your job on public transportation, bring your schoolwork with you so you can work along the way.

·         Be flexible and willing to make sacrifices. You may have to cut down on some other thing you might like to do because of your school and work commitments.

·          If you have too much on your plate, admit it. Then cut back as needed.

·        Schedule relaxation. Everyone needs some down time to stay  happy and healthy
