MODULE 1: GETTING READY TO LEARN
LEARNING STYLE INVENTORY
First and the foremost, high school vibe is really different between college vibe. We as the student should adapt ourselves with the transition from high school into college. Making move from high school into college is not an easy task. We should adapt ourselves with the situation, making new friends and etc. We even need to stay in the hostel, which we are no longer under our parents' control. Therefore, we need to know our capability and type of learning method.
Characteristics of Visual, Auditory and Kinesthetic Modes
Visual learners need to see information. If your preferred style is visual, you have strong visualization skills and can remember objects, shapes, and pictures. You learn by reading and by watching films, videos and demonstrations. You can see pictures in your mind.

The highest score indicates your preferred learning style. If you have a high score in more than one area, you’re using additional modalities. Remember that there are no wrong answers to this inventory. Everyone is an individual and has her own style of learning.
Characteristics of Visual, Auditory, and Kinesthetic Modes
• Visual learners need to see information. If your preferred style is visual, you have strong visualization skills and can remember objects, shapes, and pictures. You learn by reading, and by watching films, videos, and demonstrations. You can see pictures in your mind.
• Auditory learners need to hear information. If your preferred style is auditory, you have a “good ear” and can hear differences in tones and rhythm. Reading out loud will be beneficial. You can remember what you hear in a lecture.
• Kinesthetic learners need to be physically active and doing things. If your preferred style is kinesthetic, you are a hands-on learner. You have good coordination and learn by doing. You generally have an active approach to learning.
My highest score is auditory style 👁️🗨️ . So, im an auditory learner. Therefore, i need to pay full attention in class so that i can get most of the input in class and be excel in my studies.
Here is my list of eight important steps to avoid failure and to achieve success in college :
- Be in class.
- Take notes.
- Turn work in on time.
- Take pride in yourself and your work.
- Set educational and other goals.
- Set aside enough time to study.
- Explain lessons to yourself.
- Create practice quizzes and tests.
MODULE 2: GOAL SETTING
GOAL CHARACTERISTICS
Specific
📜What do you want from a specific objective? What you want to accomplish? All must be obviously stated. You need to be specific about the details. It's better to write them down and put them on the refrigerator wall or door or anywhere you can see them every moment. Put it up if the objective has a image. These particulars program your subconscious mind and shift your focus
Measurable
📜The quantifiable element of the objective must be identified. This way you can evaluate your progress and stay motivated. You may not be able to measure the results for certain types of goals, especially for the purposes of relationships or spiritual goals, but you can always record the activities you are doing that will take you to the goal.
Achievable
📜If you set a goal that you have no hope of achieving, you will only demoralize yourself and erode your confidence. So, make sure it’s possible to achieve the goals you set.
Realistic
📜This step is to ensure that your goal is important to you and aligns with other relevant goals as well. We all need support and help in attaining our objectives, but retaining control over them is essential. So make sure your plans drive everyone forward, but you still have the responsibility to achieve your own goal.
Timely (Time-Bound)
📜Each objective requires a target date so you can concentrate on and work toward something in the timetable. This aspect of the SMART target criteria helps avoid that everyday activities take precedence over your longer-term objectives.
BENEFITS OF GOALS SETTING TO STUDENT
1) improve their academic performance
2) increase their motivation to achieve
3) increase pride and satisfaction in performance
4) improve their self-confidence
5) peace of mind
6) clarity to decision making
7) effective use of time

MODULE 4:
TIME MANAGEMENT & ORGANIZATIONAL SKILLS
What is time?
Time is the ongoing and ongoing advancement of life and events considered as a whole in past, present, and future.
The benefits to be obtained if having a learning schedule is:
can divide the time to systematically review subjects. can train and discipline themselves in timely manner. time travel will be more organized and manageable. driving towards the achievement of excellence in the field of engagement. can avoid long-acting practices for doing something.can balance the time division between learning time and leisure time.
Examples on daily and weekly planner:
ADVANTAGE OF BEING ORGANISED
1) Focus
Being organized will enable you to focus more on what you want to achieve, both at work and in your home life. This will allow you to make better decisions as you visualize where you are and want to go.
2) Increased productivity
You will be able to be more productive in your study. By reducing the time and mental resources you expend/waste, you will have exponentially more time for the important stuff. Organized people are often twice as productive as unorganized people.
3) Better time management
By organizing or prioritizing what you do you can better ensure that the tasks that are crucial get more priority. It’s really simple; if you are more productive you get more done and therefore have more time.
4) You feel less stressed
Generally, when your assignments and key dates are outlined for each class, you’re better able to prepare and allocate your time accordingly, leaving you less stressed. When you’re less stressed, you are able to focus your energy and attention on more important things…like studying!
5) Setting and achieving goals
Being organized and efficient will allow you to do more of what you want and what is important. Goal achievement, in your job and in your personal life is extremely gratifying and gives a sense of accomplishment that cannot be valued.
6) More energy and enthusiasm
It is draining to continually wade through the same disorganized information on your desk, on your computer or in your head. Organization creates clarity which can provide us with enthusiasm and energy.
7) You can prepare for busy weeks in advance
As a college student, there are inevitably weeks when multiple tests occur or various projects are due, especially around midterms and finals. When this occurs, it’s even more important to have a plan, so you can prioritize your study time and start studying enough in advance to be prepared for all your classes without the need for ineffective late night cramming.
Reduce procrastination
DEFINITION OF PROCRASTINATION
The action of delaying or postponing something.
COMMON REASON WHY PEOPLE PROCRASTINATION
1) They give lousy excuses
2) They always think short-term
3) They focus on the fear or pain
4) They don’t feel pleasure doing it
5) They feel overwhelming
6) They have no strong reasons to take action
7) They get distracted
8) They do not have the energy
9) They experience a lack of motivation
10) They are unclear about how to get started
STRATEGIES TO OVERCOME PROCRASTINATION
1) Stop messing around
Sometimes we just need some discipline to stop any avoidance strategies and buckle down to work. Know what you use as avoidance tasks like Facebook, a trip to the water cooler, checking email again and don’t let yourself indulge until you accomplish a task or reach a milestone in your work.
2) Establish rewards
It can be motivating to have something to look forward to. Consider small ways you can reward yourself for staying on task for a period of time (this could be allowing yourself to participate in something that you previously used as an avoidance task and identify a bigger way to reward yourself for accomplishing the end result in a timely manner for larger projects.
3) Block time
Mark time on your calendar for priority tasks, and then honour it. Make appointments with yourself to work on something that you might otherwise put off. When the appointment shows up on the calendar, no procrastinating; that is what you work on during that time block. Yes, some of this takes discipline, but you can do it.
4) Ask someone to hold you accountable
We are less likely to procrastinate and put something off if we’ve told someone else about what we intend to do. Knowing that person may ask about our progress, we are more likely to act. Share your goal or priorities with someone you trust and ask them to help hold your feet to the fire. An accountability partner can be a powerful productivity strategy.
5) Go for it
Face the fear of failure and do it anyway. Take a risk, ask for help if you need it, but make progress, move forward and decide that today is the day.

JOB TASK ANALYSIS
Job task analysis is also a way you can effectively manage your time. It can help us stay up to date and meet deadlines, reduce stress and work without pressure. As a student, a job analysis is essential. The task to analyze has two things: the scale and the scale of frequency.
Here is a later example you can follow. I hope that this instance will assist you to analyze your job later.

Prioritized To-Do-List
Our ability to improve our organizational skills and prioritize tasks is a measure of our overall competence. The better the plan we have, even if as simple as creating a to-do list, the easier it is for we to overcome procrastination and get started, to eat that frog and keep going.
One of our top goals at class should be for we to prioritize tasks by using our organizational skills to get the highest possible return on our investment of mental, emotional and physical energy.

· SENSORY MEMORY – numerous incoming information from 5 senses will be stored in sensory memory for an instant.When you pay attention to the stimuli it will go to the short-term memory, but if you not pay attention it would not be last long and may lost .
· SHORT-TERM MEMORY – our short term memory have only limited storage. The information must be repeated in order to get information to long-term memory .
· LONG-TERM MEMORY – our long term memory is unlimited and have large storage.If the information is not being used for long time. The information will be lost.
HOW FORGETTING COULD OCCUR
· DID NOT PAY ATTENTION TO THE INFORMATION
· DID NOT UNDERSTAND THE INFORMATIONS
· CRAMMING (LAST MINUTE STUDY)
· DID NOT HAVE GOOD STRATEGIES
· INTERFERENCE
· TEST ANXIETY
MEMORY STRATEGIES
🐥 HELP STUDENT KEEP THEIR INFORMATION.
WAY TO IMPROVE MEMORY STRATEGIES.
· manage your time wisely.
· repeat the information many times.
· elaboration strategies- association , acronyms and imagery.
· organize the material.
· comprehension monitoring strategies.
CONCENTRATION
FOCUSING YOUR ATTENTION ON WHAT YOU ARE DOING.
CAUSES OF POOR CONCENTRATION
· LACK OF ATTENTION
· LACK OF INTEREST
· LACK OF MOTIVATION
· DISTRACTION FROM OTHERS
· UNCOMFORTABLE ENVIRONMENT
· PHYSIOLOGICAL MATTERS (ILLNESS,TIREDNESS)
· PSYCHOLOGICAL MATTERS(PERSONAL PROBLEMS, WORRIES,ANXIETY)
STRATEGIES TO IMPROVE CONCENTRATION
1. USE MOTIVATIONAL AND ORGANIZATIONAL STRATEGIES – Create interest in the work, develop a positive attitude toward your work, use goal setting strategies, use time management.
2. CREATE A POSITIVE LEARNING MANAGEMENT – Find a better places, reducing multitasking , minimize distraction.
3. DEAL WITH INTERNAL DISTRACTION – Deal with personal problem, deal with competing activities.
4. USE ACTIVE LEARNING STRATEGIES
5. MATCH YOUR LEARNING STYLE TO ASK
6. MONITOR YOUR CONCENTRATION
SQ3R
SURVEY – review the text to gain initial meaning from the tittle,subtitle or chapter introduction or lead-in, bold faced headings, graphs.
QUESTION – students try to form questions based on the preview (survey).
READ – read the paragraph for the information. And find the answer for the question that have been formed.
RECITE – answer the question that you formulated. Recite the answer on your own word without looking at the text.
RECALL – look over your answer and the text. Ask what your text mostly about. Recalling the question and try to answer the question again. Recheck it until you gain the answer again.
MODULE 6: TAKING LECTURE NOTES
WHAT IS TAKING NOTES ?
☑TAKING NOTES IS WRITING DOWN IDEAS AND READ IT WITH OUR OWN WORDS.
WHY TAKE NOTES?
· It can help us to pay attention in class.
· Help us study for quiz , test or final exam.
· help us to engage your sense.
· help us to organize and process our data and information.
· help lecture to test the student on how well they captured the information given.
STEPS IN THE NOTE-TAKING PROCESS
· decide that you want to listen
· pay attention to the lecture
· select relevant information and ignore the distractions around you.
· Interpret the information to make it meaningful
· Condense the information before writing it down
· Organize the information under the appropriate headings or subheadings
· Take notes
WHY NEED TO RECAPTURE NOTES AFTER CLASS?
· free you up to write in quick , shorthand during class.
· have a excellent test-prep strategy for reinforcing information.
· better than recopying , this time you are digesting and rephrasing
HOW TO WRITE KEY POINT
✔ CORNELL NOTE TAKING
THREE WAYS TO REVIEW YOUR NOTES?
🙇RECITE FROM THE HEADING
🙇RECITE FROM THE RECALL QUESTIONS
🙇TALK ABOUT THE INFORMATION WITH OTHERS
MODULE 7:
ACADEMY INTEGRITY AND PERFORMANCE
→ AVOIDING PLAGIARISM ←
PLAGIARISM
AN ACT OF USING OR CLOSELY IMITATION THE LANGUAGE AND THOUGHTS OF AUTHOR WITHOUT AUTHORIZATION AND THE REPRESENTATION OF THAT AUTHOR'S WORK AS ONE'S OWN, AS NOT CREDITING THE ORIGINAL AUTHOR.
CALCULATING GRADE POINT AVERAGE
CALCULATING GRADE POINT AVERAGE
→The final examination results and assessments at the end of every semester are assigned as Grade Point Average (GPA) and a Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) which represent student's academic achievement
→A Grade Point Average (GPA) refers to the calculated average of the letter grades a student earns in each semester following a 0 to 4.0 scale.
Every semester, students receive a GPA based on the grades they earned in all their courses during that semester. The formula used for the calculations of the Grade Point Average (GPA) is as follows:
GPA = The total credit values registered and attempted in the assessment of a semester
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The total credit units acquired in the same semester
CGPA = The total credit values registered and attempted in the assessment of all semesters
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The total credit units acquired in all semesters
