Provide an honest assessment of your course notes: Are they consistently developed for each module? Are some modules strong, while others could use development? My notes for the course are good but short and brief. I don’t go into a lot of detail when I write my notes. I write words that will help me remember the important details of the lesson. In the beginning of segment two when I first stared I didn’t take notes at all, but as I continued I learned that even though I can go back at any time and reread that lesson its easier if I break it down. It saves time.

What are your three favorite literary titles from the course (such as "The Mirror" or The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn)? Your choices may be short stories, poems, plays, novels, or a combination. My three favorite literary titles rom the course were “The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County”, “The Secret Life of Bees”, and I enjoyed reading some of the cowboy poems as I was doing some research on how to do mine.

If you could read only one section of your local newspaper each day, which section would it be (front page, life/times, sports, local news, etc.)? I would read local news everyday. Local events affect the community more than national and international events so it’s

    Make sure to rely on the notes of others. You may think that the person you are getting them from is a solid student, but there is no telling whether that person was an exceptional note taker.

    • Don’t get bogged down in the details of the notes. If you can write one or two summary sentences for each ‘section’ of the notes then you probably have a good sense of what is important to remember. Try to recall what I repeatedly said in class was the ‘primary point to get out of any given past climate example (e.g., the decade- to century-long megadroughts of the Medieval Warm Period).…

    Depending on the complexity of the subject / how lazy I'm feeling, this is where I'll end. I have some classes that assign fuck tons of work, so I just annotate my textbook well then work through the problem set. For things that are more conceptual (and I'll want notes to review from at the end of the year for finals) I'll take separate notes on paper. This time, I read the textbook through for the 3rd time. This time is pretty fast, mostly just writing down what I wrote in the margins the first time. Generally by this stage everything is in my own words, but even if it's not, I know that I understand it (or perhaps more importantly, I know what I really don't understand by this point and then…

    I achieved my learning outcome by doing many practice using this skill in this semester for mid-term such as fast food and how to make chocolate. My evidence that I have achieved in this skill was in week 11 I use my notes to write a summary of a lecture which I listened to about Jamie Olive discusses the unhealthy eating habits of children in the united states. However, at the beginning of the semester I was not able to do at this skill but now I can use my notes to write a summary of a lecture l have listened to. I used many strategies to develop the learning outcome. For example, I got a useful application called TED from APP Store which was included many lecture about different types such as technology, entertainment, design, education and health so I listened to some lecture and take notes then used it to write a summary. Moreover, I learn how to take notes in a way that is helpful and faster. For example, I use some special letter and symbols to save time and try to break the notes into topics or chapters in order.…

    Lectures will be structured assuming that students have read assigned material prior to class time. Students should not expect lectures to be introductions of the material, rather lectures are meant to explain and supplement the reading. It is impossible to discuss or present in class all the material in each chapter. Consequently, the instructor’s role is to guide and assist you in the learning process. Assignments are intended to provide examples of important topics encountered in the chapter, but cannot represent all the topics discussed in the chapter. Although as much assistance as possible will be provided to students, the burden of assimilating the subject matter involves extensive reading, studying, and assignment preparation. Keep up with the assigned material. It is incredibly easy to get behind and really hard to catch…

    When I was a Junior in High School, my English class was taught by one of my favorite teachers, Mr. Medlock, so, naturally, I thought that I could easily sail through the class. The English class consisted of British Literature which was new to me but sounded fun. However, I soon realized that this class was not for easy sailing. I had to overcome three, new, challenging difficulties that raised their head at me.…
