Today i want to talk about  Getting Ready To Learn. Getting Ready To Learn  is  process making the transition from school to university.

GETTING READY TO LEARN (From School To University)

The transition from school to university is a journey for any student. The school environment is a place for us to start the journey from a person who does not have knowledge to a person who has knowledge you but, university is a place for us to finish our studies and achieve all our hard work and efforts with a degree and so on.  

Monday to Friday is a learning day in high school. Class starts at 8.00 a.m and ends at 2.00 p.m . Nine subjects in a week need to be studied according to topic order. The middle and end of the year are exam months in high school.Every week on the same day at the university, learning sessions are conducted according to the faculty. Class at the university starts at 8.00 a.m and  ends at 5.00 p.m. Students have study according to the set course. A special example is AGR022, learn about plants and how to reproduce plants.The university holds a final exam at the end of the semester.

LEARNING STYLES

   

The term “learning styles” speaks to the understanding that every student learns differently. Technically, an individual’s learning style refers to the preferential way in which the student absorbs, processes, comprehends and retains information. For example, when learning how to build a clock, some students understand the process by following verbal instructions, while others have to physically manipulate the clock themselves. This notion of individualized learning styles has gained widespread recognition in education theory and classroom management strategy. Individual learning styles depend on cognitive, emotional and environmental factors, as well as one’s prior experience. In other words: everyone’s different. It is important for educators to understand the differences in their students’ learning styles, so that they can implement best practice strategies into their daily activities, curriculum and assessments.

Main "Learning Styles"

1. Verbal                                           
2. Visual
3. Musical/Auditory
4. Physical/Kinaesthetic
5. Logical/Mathematical
6. Social
7. Solitary
8. Combination

CHARACTERISTICS OF SUCCESSFUL STUDENT

1. 

1)    Get Organized: Making a plan for what you're going to do and when you're going will make sure you're always ahead of the curve - literally. 
to do it

2)    Don't multitask: Studies have shown that multitasking is physically impossible. 

3)    Divide it up: Studying isn't fun to begin with, and forcing yourself through a study marathon will only make it worse. Dividing your work into manageable chunks and rewarding yourself when you finish each chunk will make studying (more) fun.

4)    Sleep: Don't underestimate the importance of those eight hours of zzz's every night! Getting a good night's rest will sharpen your focus and improve your working memory.

5)    Set a schedule: Do you work better right after school or after you've eaten dinner? Are you more productive in 90-minute blocks or half-hour spurts? Find a schedule that works for you, and stick to it. 

6)    Take notes: Taking notes will not only keep you more engaged during class, but will also help you narrow down what you need to study when exam time rolls around. It's much easier to reread your notes than to reread your entire textbook!
