10 tips for student success

1.     Attend your classes. Remember in the words of Woody Allen ‘seventy percent of success in life is showing up’.

2.     Know your faculty. Make sure you know who your teachers are, when their office hours are and how to contact them.

3.     Make sure the faculty knows you. Sit in the front of the classroom. Participate in class discussion. Consult with your teachers during the office hours.

4.     Use a daily planner. Note the dates of exams, assignments, term papers, etc.

5.     Be organized. Prioritize your responsibilities. Manage your time. Remember everyone has the same 168 hours a week, only some of us use them better than others.

9.     Get involved in campus. It will help you learn valuable skills, expand your social network and enhance yourself-confidence. Seek out opportunities to apply what you learn in the classroom.

10.       Keep your eyes on the prize. Clarify your goals. Know why you are in college in the first place. Visualize your success on a daily basis.

… Owns or has easy access to a computer with internet access and email

You don’t have to be a computer expert to be successful in online learning—but you must have access to a personal computer with reliable internet access, as well as a basic level of competency in using them. Owning a computer with internet access from your home is ideal but many students use the computer labs on campus or at their offices to complete their work.

… Has basic computer skills and willing and open to learning new ones

Work together. There are a number of ways that you can ensure you get most out of your educational experience. First, participate fully. Engage regularly in the discussion and be willing to share your personal, professional and educational experiences. You can get know your classmates though the dialogue that is created in a course environment-sometimes even better than in a face-to face class. And the same goes for your instructor. Be sure to contact your professor-especially if you are having problems. He/she is still your instructor and will be there to guide and assist you as needed.

… Takes responsibility for his/her own learning

Online learning can be powerful, stimulating, engaging experience for the student who can work and think independently. However, since most-if not all-of the learning take place on your own time, you will not have the kind of direct supervision you would in a classroom. Online learning therefore requires a significant commitment from you. All education comes down to what you are willing to invest in the experience-this is particularly true in the online environment. Commitment, self-discipline and self-motivation are all key qualities to ensuring success in an online course!

… Is comfortable and confident with written communication

Reading and writing are the basis of most online courses, so it’s critical that you feel comfortable with this form of communication. While some courses contain modules that include videos or other activities, all of them require significant amounts of reading. And nearly all of your communication with your classmates and your instructor will be in writing. If these are weak areas for you, you will want to address those issues prior to enrolling or while enrolled in an online course. The PSU Writing Center is available to assist you.

10. Successful students are good time managers. Successful Students do not procrastinate. They have learned that time control is life control and have consciously chosen to be in control of their life.

An elemental truth: you will either control time or be controlled by it! It’s your choice: you can lead or be led, establish control or relinquish control, steer your own course or follow others. Failure to take control of their own time is probably the no. I study skills problem for college students. It ultimately causes students to become non-students! Procrastinators are good excuse makers. Don’t make academics harder on yourself than it has to be. Stop procrastinating. And don’t wait until tomorrow to do it!

The 10 items listed above are paraphrased from an article by Larry M Ludewig called The Ten Commandments for Effective Study Skills which appeared in The Teaching Professor, December, 1992
