UA&P I AM S.T.R.O.N.G. : Studying in High School

by: Jewelz Lim

I studied high school in California and in Cebu, during those times I never realized the importance of studying. I always turned in my assignments but I just made them to pass the class. I spent a lot of my time with my friends, going to the mall. It was only when I got to college that I realized how important studying was. In class, I felt like I was the only student who didn't know the answers... But that was only because I didn't read the assignment. After a couple of weeks in college, I got my act together and I started studying. It was then I realized that I should be doing it for myself. I was happy because I not only learned many new things. I also gained more knowledge about everything around me. I made it a habit to always complete my assignments so that I can be a better person.

Sometimes I wonder how other people study.. If its during the day, or night. If they can study better with others, or if they study in the library.

For me, I enjoy studying at home because I like it quiet and I can concentrate on what I am reading. I also have a hard time studying with others because I tend to talk to them and make kwento. I also take breaks every 1 hour or so. This lets me gain energy to continue studying again.

What other studying habits do other people have?

One educator further says: “It’s important to have the student realize that a fact doesn’t exist in isolation but is always related to other information.”

Try, therefore, to relate what you study to what you already know and have experienced.

yeah, search for the practical value of what you are learning.

'There Will Be a Test Next Week’
These words need not cause you to panic.

First of all, try to discern from your teacher’s comments what kind of test it will be, such as an essay test or multiple choice.

Also, in the days preceding the test, listen for clues as to what will appear in the test. (“This next point is very important” or “Be sure to remember that” are typical hints, says Senior Scholastic magazine.)

Next, review your notes, textbooks, and homework assignments.

Perhaps a friend or one of your parents would be happy to drill you with questions or listen to you as you recite classroom material.

And then the night before the test, relax and try to get a good night’s sleep.

Failing a test especially after trying hard to pass it can devastate your self-respect.

well that is true from my own experience

educator Max Rafferty reminds us: “As long as we live, we’re graded on what we know, how well we get results . . . A school that kids the kids into thinking that life is going to be all Roman candles is not a school. It’s a dream factory.”

The humiliation of failing a test may well be worth it if it spurs you on to learn from your mistakes and improve.

But what about facing disappointed parents with a bad report card?

Anonymous said...

Some youths have forge phony grades on their report cards!

Your parents, though, have a right to know how you are doing in school.

Naturally, they expect your grades to reflect your abilities, and if your grades are under par, you can expect to receive well-deserved discipline.

So be honest with your parents

If you think too much is being expected of you, talk it over with them

As important as grades are, they are not the final judgment on your worth as a person

Anonymous said...

Nevertheless, take advantage of the time you are in school, and learn as much as you can.

Usually that effort will be reflected in grades that will make you and your parents feel happy and satisfied

You have to face the fact that before many more years, you may have to support yourself. You may eventually take on the obligations of a husband and father, or a wife and mother. Would you like to make those responsibilities easier, more enjoyable? You can if you take advantage of your school years, learning things that will be useful in your adult life.

Study exercises your mind and improves your ability to use it. It is something like a muscle in your body—the more you exercise it the better it will serve you.

You will find that mental effort gradually becomes easier and more productive.

i enjoy reading my lessons in a park

self-examination may lead to an overhaul of your study habits.

Anonymous said...

Ask yourself, ‘Just how many hours a night do I spend preparing for school? Do I view study as serious business or are my efforts halfhearted? Do I give priority to less important activities, such as TV viewing?

Realize that the primary difference between a good student and a poor student is usually diligence—not intelligence.
