The “c” student

Part3

6. Effort: ”C” students are capable of sufficient effort, but either fail to realistically evaluate the effort needed to accomplish a task successfully, or lack of desire to meet the challenge. They put forth very little effort. They don’t realize that they will be rewarded according the amount of effort they put into a project. Little effort=bad results.

7. Communications: “C” students communicate in ways that often limit comprehension or risk misinterpretation. Ideas are not well formulated before they are expressed. Poor listening/reading habits inhibit matching inquiry and response.

8. Results: ”C” students obtain mediocre or inconsistent results on test. They have some concept of what is going on but clearly have not mastered the material.

SUMMARY:

WHAT I SEE IS A SINKING SHIP IN COSTA CONCORDIA. WHAT I BELEAVE HAPPENED AT THIS POINT IS THAT THE CAPTAIN OF THE SHIP WENT TO CLOSE TO THE SHORE & IF YOU TAKE A BOAT NEAR THE SHORE IT WILL SINK. NOW THIS SHIP SANK BECAUSE THE CAPTAIN CHOSE THE WRONG. HE DISOBEYED THE LAW. HE WAS SUPPOSE TO BE THE LAST ONE TO JUMP OUT BUT HE CHOSE THE WRONG AND AT THE SECOND THE SHIP BEGAN TO SINK THE CAPTAIN JUMPED ON A LIFE BAOT AND LEFT THE PASSENGERS THERE. HE INJURED A LOT OF PEOPLE & FOR THAT HE GOT HOUSE ARREST FOR JUMPING OUT AND LEAVING PEOPLE BEHIND.

 

REFLECTION:

I THINK THAT WE HAVE TO LEARN FROM THIS. WE HAVE TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT, BECAUSE WE’RE ALL LIKE SHIPS. IF WE CHOOSE THE WRONG AND MAKE A BAD MOVE YOU WILL SINK IMEDIATELY. SO WE SHOULD THINK BEFORE WE ACT ON ANY SITTUATION IT COULD ITHER BE GOOD OR JUST TERRIABLY BAD. SO I SAY YOU THINK AND CHOOSE THE RIGHT.

2. CURIOSITY:”C” STUDENT SELDOM EXPLORES TOPICS DEEPER THAN THEIR FACE VALUE. THEY LACK VISION AND BYPASS INTERCONNECTEDNESS OF CONCEPTS. IMIDATE RELEVENCY IS OFTEN THEIR SINGULAR TEST FOR INVOLVEMENT.

3. RETENTION:”C” STUDENTS RETAIN LESS INFORMATION AND FOR SHORTER PERIODS. LESS EFFORT SEEMS TO GO TOWARD ORGANIZATION AND ASSOCIATING LEARNED INFORMATION WITH PREVIOUSLY ACQUIRED KNOWLEDGE. THEY DISPLAY SHORT TEAM RETENTION BY RELYING ON GRAMMING SESSIONS THAT FOCUS ON DETAILS, NOT CONCEPTS.

4. ATTITUDE:”C” STUDENTS ARE NOT VISIBLY COMMITED TO CLASS. THEY PARTICIPATE WITHOUT ENTHUSIASM. THEIR BODY LANGUAGE OFTEN EXPRESSES BOREDOM.

5. TALENT:”C” STUDENTS VARY ENORMOUSELY IN TALENT. SOME HAVE EXCEPTIONAL ABILITY BUT SHOW UNDENIABLE SIGNS OF POOR SELOF-MANAGEMENT OR BAD ATTITUDE. OTHERS ARE DILIGENT BUT SIMPLY AVERAGE IN ACADEMIC ABILITY.

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.

STUDENT SUCCESS STATEMENT

 

“When I Do Good, I Feel Good. When I Do Bad, I Feel Bad.”-Abraham Lincoln

 

 

This means that when you do bad stuff you are obviously going to feel bad, because what you do if it’s bad it makes you feel guilty & bad. That’s why when you do things think before you act or it will haunt you forever. On the other hand when you do good things you feel good, happy, overwhelm & excited because you actually thought about what you were doing and you had confidence in yourself and did what was right and not bad, you chose the right!!!

Successful students can be distinguished from the average student by their attitudes and behaviors. Below are some profiles that typically distinguish between “A” student and a “C” student.

The “A” student – an outstanding student

1.    ATTENDANCE:”A” students have virtually perfected attendance . Their commitment to the class is a high priority and exceeds other temptations.

2.    PREOARATION:”A” students are prepared for class. They always read the assignment. Their attention to detail is such that they occasionally can elaborate on class examples.

3.    CURIOSITY:”A” students demonstrate interest in the class and the subject. They look up or dig out what they don’t understand. They often ask interesting questions or make thoughtful comments.

4.    RETENTION:”A” students have retentive minds and practice making retentive connections. They are able to connect past learning with present. They bring a background of knowledge with them to their classes. They focus on learning concepts rather than memorizing details.
