Life After High School

Alicia Ramirez

LIFE AFTER HIGH SCHOOL

Summary: As we read our topic we read about one specific way the college board wanted us to do things such as studying & note taking ; students didn’t have the choice to do in a way that would help them out , which basically contradicts what we’ve learned In this class. In this class we learned that no two people learn exactly the same. So, find a way that works for you ! One thing that we did agree with the college board on was the SMART Goals . Your future is in your hands, write down a plan that will help you achieve your life Goals !


1.       How To Study
·         Don’t be limited! There are many different way to study so explore a few and choose what works best for you.

2.       How To Take Notes
·         Cornel Notes work for you ? Great ! It didn’t for me, so I found a way that did.
 ** Bullet points, summeries,  ask questions, etc…

3.       Reading and understanding.
·         Not everyone will undersand the material so consider doing discussions . They will help everyone get a better understanding, even those who did undertand.
** You will receive many different points of views
·         Don’t be afraid to ask questions!
·         ReRead the material as many times as necessary
4.       Research
·         Research Different topics all based on the same topic. It will help you get a better understanding on what your subject is actually about.
·         Get research from more than two sources that way you get different information and different perspectives.

5.       Reflection On Writing Process
·         Like we said before , different ways work for different people.
** Organization maps, bullet points to organize your thoughts,

·         Different forms of writing require different organization and thought processes
