Ø Describe your ideal Instructor/Professor.Ø “I knew it when I studied it, but I forgot it on the test.” How can students study differently to prevent this from happening?Ø How do you study for quizzes/tests?Ø What do you have trouble with on quizzes/tests?
I believe my ideal instructor would
1. Be very knowledgable about the subject matter.
2. Would answer questions with more than just a cursery answer. ( would actually engage in dialog instead of just a monologue)
3. would have a passion for what was taught and for students.
4. would be able to break down subject matter so the average layman could grasp and understand it.
I have found that I will forget alot if I try to cram just before a test or exam. For me nothing beats keeping up and studying some everyday. Then the last minute cram is really just reinforcement of whats already there in your head.
I study for quizes and tests the way I just described above. (for the most part) I also like to rewrite alot of my notes. I find the act of writing helps burn something into my memory.
I,ve got a pretty good memory so I usually dont have trouble with remembering things. What I do seem to have a hard time with are mathmatical formulas. I hate math.
I dont really know about "healthy fast food." I would say the healthiest I could think of might be a chain in the south called Crispers. They specialize in salads and sandwiches. Their veggies are not pre packeaged. Their bread is really good (pumpernickel, marbled rye, wheat) and I think its made on site. Their meats are higher end deli meats, thats gotta be better than a hamburger pattie from micky D,s i'de think, and their food is really good.

You're so lucky you are able to live in the woods, grow vegetables and gather eggs - you know where they come from and how natural they are! It's so tempting for us working parents to grab some fast food and bring it home so nice to hear you "don't really know about healthy fast food" - amen!
ReplyDeleteYou're exactly right - keeping up with studies every day and then cramming a bit before the test is a great technique because like you said, it's reinforcement of what you already know. Great advice.
10/10 Outstanding!
