Success Strategies
“成功不是未来的一大步，成功是现在迈出的一小步。.” – Jonatan Martensson
在你的笔记本上、手机上、白板上——任何地方——列一个每周要做的事情清单!
- Spend about 30 minutes on Sundays going through each syllabus. What’s required this week?
- 在你开放的时间里，为每门课程计划一个具体的时间. Avoid working in your room.
- Break up coursework. Focus on 1-2 courses per day rather than all courses at once.
- Cross off tasks and work as you complete them. See your progress each week.
Advanced tip: Assign tasks to the same time each week. 例子:
- SOC reading every Monday and Wednesday
- 在你做完实验的同一天开始你的CHE实验报告，两天后再回来
- Do MTH homework for 30-45 min. most days of the week.
Actively review class information to learn more effectively.
- Start with no notes. Within 24 hours of each class session, 在你的设备上打开一个白板或空白文件，开始写下和画出你在课堂上记住的一切. Force yourself to do this for 10-15 minutes.
- Check your accuracy. Use your notes and class materials to see what you got right, what you left out, what needs more detail. Focus on learning those parts for 15-20 min.
- Test yourself again. 擦除白板或删除文件，写下你从那堂课中学到了什么. Did you acquire the pieces you missed the first time?
为什么有效:强迫自己创造信息是开始将课堂内容从短期记忆巩固为更持久的记忆的方法. You learn it better. 最初的测试确定了你还没有掌握的东西，这样你就可以专注于那些点.
额外的好处:创造内容是你必须回答考试问题的方式, 因此，每节课后你都要自己练习，以减轻考试焦虑，提高成绩.
Space out work to create better papers and presentations.
- 截止日期前一周:从你的教授那里得到反馈. Are you going in the right direction? Find out before you begin.
- 计划几个30-45分钟的时间来写你论文的特定部分. 例如,
- 5-5:45 p.m. Monday: Create my outline for the paper.
- 5-5:45 p.m. Tuesday: Write the introduction to the paper.
- 把工作分成几天来做会让你保持专注，让你创造出更强的工作.
- 2-3 days before the due date: 时间表 an appointment at the DWOC. This gives you a target completion date for the first draft.
- Incorporate DWOC feedback for the best final version.
- 展示? 实践! Don’t memorize scripts, 相反，在整个演讲过程中，你要把重点放在不同时间的关键词或要点上. 实践 a strong intro, hitting your points, and a strong closing. Use transitions. Orally cite your sources.
提前计划并保持进度:在学期的早期复习每个教学大纲，并在你的计划中添加截止日期. 时间表 DWOC 在论文和报告截止日期前2-3天的学期早期预约.

STEPS TO BENEFIT FROM 辅导
- 每周至少拜访一次你觉得最具挑战性的科目的导师. Don’t wait until you fall behind, 如果你想在这学期剩下的时间内把成绩拿到你想要的地方，那可能就太晚了.
- Come prepared with specific questions. Work a problem or concept as far as you can, 然后问一些具体的问题，学习如何在这个问题或概念上前进. 在导师的指导下自己练习回答问题. 在课外辅导或教授办公时间之间，你可以更好地独自完成作业.
- Plan extra time to work on your most challenging subjects. Rather than feel stressed or overwhelmed, 在你的日程表中留出额外的时间，每天花一点时间来解决这些问题或概念. 一个更好的主意是:下课后尽快做作业——最好是在同一天——因为这样你更有可能记住步骤和细节.
- Visit your professors during office hours. 和他们一起回顾你自己学习和应用课程材料的步骤, 看看你是否在正确的轨道上，并询问他们是否有其他的建议来帮助你前进.
