The “C” student an average student

Part 1

Source: the teaching professor. Paraphrased from john h. Williams, clarifying grade expectations, august/September, 1993 and Paul Solomon and Annette Nellon, communicating about the behavioral dimensions of grades, February, 1996.

1.  ATTENDACE:”C” students are often late and miss class frequently. They put other priorities ahead of academic work. In some cases, their health or constant fatigue renders them physically unable to keep up with the demands of high level performance. They think it’s ‘cool’ to be tardy because it makes them think they are big shots. Skipping class is another down fall for the “C” & failing students.

    2.   PREPARATION:”C” students may prepare their assignments consistently, but often in a perfunctory manner. Their work may be sloppy or careless. At times, it is complete or late. They postpone doing home assignments in order to text friends, visit friends on Facebook, or sent tweets to some or some of their followers. They take shortcuts to complete  academic work. They are not short-sighted because they cannot see the long range destruction of taking shortcuts. It never pays off.
