Mgt 311 Week 4 Developing Your Study Plan

The first step to successfully study for any type of material is to keep the material organized and make sure the information is correct. A good routine would be to check notes periodically

Important things to remember when taking notes is that you don’t have to write everything down and try to avoid having to get a classmates notes to copy. Another thing to do is read the textbook. When you read the textbook highlight important things that relate don’t just highlight facts and definitions. The last thing Dr. Chew talks about in this video is group studying. When you are in a group study make sure to set realistic goals and work towards them. If one of them members is causing you to not reach that goal because they are not focused ask them to leave. You also need to make sure the study doesn’t become a social gathering stay focused and on

In the beginning, Jake at first is nervous and frustrated that Amy is late. Which is a lack of commitment from Amy's side, and Jake is just feeling the effects of it. When Amy does get there, Jake starts to ask questions and is very aggressive about it; all the while he does not give her a chance to speak. This is another type of transgression, Jake is displaying problematic emotions while he is addressing Amy. Also while Jake is questioning Amy, she is acting suspiciously, and either trying to avoid the question or delaying the answer. Which does not help and actually makes the situation worse, between the two. Throughout the session they are both distant, no touching whatsoever and avoiding eye contact. Things do get pretty heated between the two, and Jake even pressured the counselor into revealing what his thoughts are; in which was unsatisfying to both of them.

Amanda and Erica’s grades may differ for a variety of reasons. Studies show that the more academic activities a parent is involved in is significantly associated with their child having higher literacy achievement, lower rates of grade retention, and fewer years needing special education (Miedel & Reynolds, 2000). Amanda’s father’s income, education, and occupation also all correlate with her literacy abilities (Buckingham, Wheldall, & Beaman-Wheldall, 2013). Parental education has the strongest influence of the three (Buckingham, Wheldall, & Beaman-Wheldall, 2013).

Studying by myself in a quiet room is most effective for me. There is less distraction, and it makes me be focused on my studying. If I want to study for a Biology class, I read the textbook. But if I want to study for math I do practice problems. I also don’t bring anything that I don’t need in my studying. This will reduce the distractions, and makes me finish my studying session faster. I try to think positive when I’m studying, it allows me to study efficiently.

Here we go again with resolutions. Our favorite part of new year. The next paragraphs are my simple resolution. My resolution are jogging for 30 minutes everyday, spend more time with friends and family, get a higher gpa. Every year I make my simple resolution, but only keep one or two of them. But not this year I am going to keep all of my resolution. So let's get started.

1. Read - around the topics you are learning about or want to learn about and develop

My group had an instance of functional which was to work together to achieve the assignment. We had to pick four out of eight people, and all of eight people would die very soon if they did not have another heart. After reading the assignment sheets, we could pick two people immediately, Peter and Thomas, who were young boys. We had a lot of opinions about picking the other two. For me, I would pick Father and Donna base on what I read. However, after spending about ten minutes to discuss with my group, we all had agreement for Father and Mike. Even though I picked Donna instead of Mike, the other members shared their opinions and analyzed the information; so finally, I agreed to pick Father and Mike. At first, each of us had different choice

I am a lifelong musician and entrepreneur. I am 52 years young and have been a vocalist since I can remember, a keyboardist for over 25 years, and entrepreneur for just as long. I have also always been someone’s secretary, administrative assistant, bookkeeper, office manager, booking agent, and spouse and mother for about 24 years of that journey. Growing up in southern California, I have performed most styles of music and sung/played in a variety of bands and ensembles since 1980. I have covered female vocalists from the 30s and 40s through current artists. I moved from southern California to rural western Colorado in 1993 and things are unique here. In 2009, I wrote and co-produced my CD, Mosaic, with musicians in Nashville with the help of Lorna

Yes Sir, I have been with the organization from Fort Monroe to here in Suffolk for 21 years working exercises support. I have supported at least 30 events a year, and pack out up to 30 pallets depending on what or how much equipment was needed for an event. I never had any broken equipment that I have pack out that were damage due to my expertise. Never been late to have the equipment inventory and pack properly for shipment for an event. Worked diligently thru 100 degree heated temperate and 30 degree freezing temperate to get the mission completed.

Hi! I am Danielle Becker. I am a transient student from Florida Gulf Coast University. I am working to achieve a degree in Legal Studies. Study habits that I believe are useful for success is to take good notes on the readings and print out notes and highlight key points. I use index cards to memorize definitions and watch videos if I am having trouble understanding an example. I currently work at a hockey arena for the Florida Everblades.

With the use of timelines, tables, and creating practice test this allows me to implement a visual and physical source to study. Also providing me with a source to easily pinpoint my weaknesses and create flash cards to socially study in a group. Finding a quiet comfortable environment where I can focus and write out my notes will allow me to concentrate and absorb the information. The best place I have found to be able to focus better and tends to be a quit environment would be at work. Since I work overnight at an assisted living I have more time to focus on what I am doing then when I am at home where there is more

Simulating actual test like circumstances has just never worked for me as I usually don’t pick the correct information to test myself on and the important information gets left behind. Study groups cause me too much pressure because I find that one or two people seem to be putting the study guides together. This is a pet peeve for me; I don’t mind sharing my ideas but don’t expect me to do all the work and then hand it to you. The final one that has never worked for me is taking notes by using one of the many note taking systems. I find myself spending too much time trying to remember what needs to be written where, organizing, how to fold the paper. I have developed my own crazy way of taking notes over the years. Note taking is an area that I feel is individualize for each

A weakness in my learning strategy is that I don’t study regularly. So, I cram up everything the day before a test or two days before a test. To tell you the truth I don’t even have a learning strategy. The topic I am going to choose to help my problem is minimizing distractions because, in my opinion, this is what makes me not study regularly. The “Success by Design” states that to not have distractions while studying one should look for a place where you won’t be distracted, a secluded place with a working environment. While studying one should turn off one’s cell phone and do not sit in a place where one is going to get to relax to work.
