1. Pass the class
2. Understand the material that is being taught
3. Feel good about my performance in the class
*Describe your weekly preparation plan. Be specific. What will you do each day of the week to prepare for this course.
I will go over what we learned in class on Thursday night so that it is still fresh in my mind. I will do any chapter reading and study guide on Friday, so that I have the study guides completed to look over before class the next week. I will make sure that all blogs and assignments are finished before Wednesday so that I don't have to do any last minute, rushed work. I will review class notes and study guides on Wednesday night so that I am prepared to participate in class on Thursday.
*Outline the study strategies that you will use to understand the material.
I will find a place to do my homework (at school and at home) where I can concentrate and wont be distracted by outside things. I will focus on one thing at a time so that I am not distracted by my own thoughts. I will make sure that my homework or reading is done early so that it will not be rushed or sloppy and so that I will get the most out of this class and my time.
*Explain the process you will follow if you do not understand a topic.
If I do not understand a topic I will search for the answer, if I can't find one I will ask a friend, if we can't come up with anything I will ask Dr. Cox
*Complete the following statement:
I will reach my goals in this course by following my preparation plan, and by making sure that I understand the course material before moving on to something else. I will reach my goals by not being afraid to ask for help. I will make each assignment worthwhile and will find the meaning in all that we learn and do in this class.
