Student Success Statement By Margaret Chase Smith

Student Success Statement
" The right way is not always the popular way. Standing for right when it is  unpopular is a true test of moral character."
By Margaret Chase Smith

I agree because the right decisions are always the harder ones to make even though you find it difficult it is better to do what is right rather than be popular and destroy your future.

Dot-What?

Look at the site’s address. What follows the dot?

·         Dot-com is not only for business; anyone can use it. Dot-coms include well-known and respected companies, but also private individuals.

·         Dot-org usually indicates a not-for-profit organization.  Many dot-orgs present unbiased information, but others have political agendas, focus on debatable issues of facts, and might not present all sides of an argument.

·         Dot-Gov. indicates a government website at the federal, state or local level. The federal government is a good source of statistics, and its sites are widely considered among the most reliable.

·         Dot-mil is used by sites that are part of the military.

·         Dot-edu usually indicates a university website. While its published research is generally considered very trustworthy, anyone associated with the university, whether a world-renowned scholar or a freshman, can be given space on its server. Professors sometimes put student course work up on the web, but that doesn’t mean they’re vouching for the information’s accuracy.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!

I agree because nothing is impossible as long as you try and put effort into what you're doing.

Research with Attitude

Conduct your research with the attitude of a skeptic. As you examine websites for clues that they’re trustworthy, ask these questions:

·         Who wrote the Web page? If you can’t identify the individual or organization responsible for the information, don’t use it.

·         What are the author’s qualifications for writing on the subject?

·         Has the article passed through an editorial process designed to ensure quality and accuracy?

·         What is the website’s purpose? Look for motives—like selling products or winning votes—that could result in biased or incomplete information.

·         Is the information accurate? Is it up to date? Where did the author get this information?

CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!

Student Success Statement
"When an archer misses the mark,he turns and looks for the fault within himself. Failure to hit the bull's eye is never the fault of the target.
To improve your aim, improve yourself."
Gilbert Arland

I agree with this statement becausewhen you fail at something it is never the fault of anything else or anyone else but your own.

Student Success Statement by William Matthews

Student Success Statement
" The first law of success...Is concentration; to bend all the energies to one point, and to go directly to that point, looking neither to the right nor the left."
william Matthews

If you want to be successful in life you have to get all the unnecessary thoughts out of your head and concentrate on the main goal.

Question      

As you survey the text, ask a question for each section. Ask what, why, how, when, who and where questions as they relate to the content. Here’s how you can create questions:

·         Turn the title, heading or subheading into questions.

·         Rewrite the questions at the end of the chapter or after each subheading in your own words.

Write down your questions. Questions help you pay attention, understand the text better and recall the information more easily later on.

Read

Read one section of the chapter at a time, actively looking for an answer to your question for that section. Pay attention to bold and italicized text that authors use to make important points.

Be sure to review everything in the section, including tables, graphs and illustration—these features can communicate an idea more powerfully than written text.
