Effective Study Habits Worksheet

Review Phoenix Career Plan results of Career Plan Building Activity: Work Culture Preference, respond to the following in 50 to 100 words each:

1. Describe your ideal study environment.

My ideal study environment is basically a library. The library is a place where a person can sit down and not worry about noise and have all the study elements around them as well. If you can not find something on the internet you have a pluthera of books to look through as well. I personally love to read out of a book so I would have the optimum advantage being in a library. There are no personal distractions to get in the way of my work.

2. List some of the distractions that might hinder your study progress or your performance in an online classroom.

Some of the distractions that might hinder study progress would have to be different in everyone’s circumstances. If you have children around then you have the kids running around screaming or getting into trouble. If you work then you have to do your work around a work schedule and figure out your sleep schedule. If you go out into public to do your work you may run into people you know or some one might just talk to you randomly.

3. What actions can you take to manage and eliminate distractions?

Well this also depends on peoples special circumstances as well. You could set aside a certain time during a couple days a week to have some one else watch your kids so you can get in some work. If you have work then try to schedule out your day so that you have a few minutes here and there to manage your day. Personally, I think being able to go to the library once a week would help, because there are no distractions there necessarily.

4. How will you apply your personal learning style? How does your personal Learning style affect your study habits?

Seeing as I am a special learner I will use videos to help me understand

    The biggest problem most school encounter is not supplying enough air circulation thought out the school, this is often times to a lack of funding. As a result outdoor air supplies per person in classrooms are often so low that carbon dioxide (CO2) levels are well above the recommended 800-1000 (ppm) causing poor air quality (P Wargocki, 2002). There hasn’t been any evidence to prove that higher or lower temperatures in a classroom causes a lack or inability to recall information, however higher temperatures make it harder for student for some student to stay awake or even maintain an attitude of learning. Other distractions such as visual distraction can come from open window and the use of cell phone in the classrooms. Windows without blinds can result in student becoming distracted with what is going on outside of the course of study. There is a policy that most schools are trying to enforce which will ban the use of cell phones in the class room which will limit the distractions such as texting. Social distractions such as talking or passing notes don’t just take away from the people who are doing the activity but those around them as well. Disciplines are enforced and some schools give after school detention, weekend school, and for repetitive distractions to a class student may also have a meeting with teacher and the student parents and discus a plan of action before dropping a student from a course.…

    The author of “Ah, the University” uses literally elements such as foreshadowing and Irony. At the beginning of the story jack’s father talks about how wonderful university is and how many exiting things are waiting there for him but then he tells jack that he is not going because he doesn’t have enough money. Irony was applied in this example by jack’s father by telling him many things about the university and making him believe he will go and then telling him that he cannot afford that. There is an example of foreshadowing when the author says that Jack’s father got nervous and it seemed that he wasn’t sure at all when he did the last bet. There was a clue here that showed us that he was going to lose. His expressions showed us that he was afraid and that something bad was going to happen to them.…
