Student Success Statement

"Nothing is ever gained in doing what's wrong." - Wilford Woodruff

This statement means that when you do something that is wrong you will not get anything good in return. It means that you will get punished for doing something that is not right. You should always choose the right. If you choose the right, then you will get something good in return. You will lose if you choose the wrong.

Work Together. There are a number of ways that you can ensure you get the most out of your educational experience. First, participate fully. Engage regularly in the discussions and be willing to share your personal, professional and educational experiences. You can get to know your classmates through the dialogue that is created in a course environment-sometimes even better than in a face-to-face class. And the same goes for your instructor. Be sure to contact your professor-especially if you are having problems. He/she is still your instructor and will be there to guide and assist you as needed.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT.

"It's not WHERE you live but How you live that counts. Its not where you play the game but HOW you play the game that counts" - Mr. Haymore

This statement measn that you should always choose the right. That doing what is right will always make you feel better and live happier.

A successful student..

…. Takes responsibility for his/her own leaning

Online learning can be powerful, stimulating, engaging experience for the student who can work and think independently. However, since most-if not at 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 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 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 or while enrolled in an online course. The PSU Writing Center is available to assist you…. Is willing to be a member of an online community.

Student Success Statement

"Goodness is the only in investment that never fails." - Henry David Thoreau

This statement means that being good will always repay you. It is a good investment. If you do what is right you will always feel good about yourself. Choose the right. If you choose the wrong, then you will get intouble and bad things will happen to you. Like if you do drugs , you will get caught and you can go to jail , because you did something bad. But if you choose to not do drugs then , you will live longer and healthier. CHOOSE THE RIGHT.

10. Successful students are good times 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 elemental 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!

The 10 items listed above are paraphrased from an article by Larry M Ludewig called Ten Commandments for Effective Study Skills which appeared in The Teaching Professor, December, 1992.
