Successful students are responsible and active.
Successful students get involved in their studies, accept responsibility for
their own education, and are active participants in it!
Responsibility means control. It’s the difference between
leading and being led. Your own efforts control your grade, you earn the glory
or deserve the blame, you make the choice. Active classroom participation
improves grades without increasing study time. You can sit there, act bored,
daydream, or sleep. Or, you can actively listen, think, question, and take
notes like someone in charge of their learning experience. Either option costs
one class period. However, the former method will require a large degree of
additional work outside of class to achieve the same degree of learning the
latter provides at one sitting. The choice is yours.
