...Study In this time, good teachers and good teaching methods are needed in order that students can gain more knowledge especially in the subject Mathematics. Many students fail, because of the difficulty of this subject. These methods should be introduced to the students to improve more in their Mathematical abilities. In PNHS, many students have difficulty in Mathematics, because in this subject it uses more analysis and understanding problems. Math is not easy for the Math teachers, because some students have no interests of this subject; because of its difficulty. Teachers must encourage the students to study this subject. If the students able to study this subject, there is a big possibility to pass or increase their grades. But if the duration of time spent for studying this lesson is not enough, the student’s achievement in their Mathematical ability will be decreased. So, studying is very important to the students. There are so many factors that can affect or cannot affect the Mathematical ability of a student. One factor is watching Television, because it can consume the time of a students for studying their lessons. Another factor is, having not enough allowance, because some students are not interested to go to school if their allowance is not enough. Another is Internet addiction, because they spent their time and money for this, that lead to addiction and the students have lack of interest in studying that will lead for them got low grades. In this study, we...

...A survey of U. S districts shows fewer than one and five high schools begin before 8am. High school students go through a mass amount of bullshit on a day to day basisIf there are any changes that should be made about school it would be the school hours, standardized test and classes. Sleep the time our bodies recover; but what if you don't get enough? Your grades, health, and performance suffers. Teens need about 8 hours of sleep each night, but when you have homework, chores, and hours of studying how can you achieve that with adequate amount of sleep in mind. School should start later so students have enough time ti get work done and get an appropriate amount of sleep. We spend hours deciding and choosing our major and career paths but...

...and habits have a powerful role in our lives. Habits consist of knowledge, skill, and desire. Knowledge allows us to know what to do, skill gives us the ability to know how to do it, and desire is the motivation to do a certaintask (Covey, 1990). Habits are routines of behaviour that are repeated regularly and tend to occur subconsciously. Habitual behaviour often goes unnoticed in persons exhibiting it, because a person does not need to engage in self-analysis when undertaking routine tasks. Study skills include how a person studies, as well as the particular resources a person uses. They are intentional use of one or more cognitive processes to accomplish a particular task. Good study skills include note-taking, reading, summarizing, organizing, identifying important information, and meaningful learning and elaboration (Ormrod, 2008).They are generally critical to success in school, are considered essential for acquiring good grades, and are useful for learning throughout one's life. Study skills are the methods of researching and learning that are used to absorb educational information. It has been widely accepted in modern times that college is a time to learn, experiment, and grow. Academic performance is the commonly used gauge with which to determine whether or not a student has indeed learned what he has been taught. It is the ability of the student to apply academic skills in a variety of ways or settings. Through testing and assignments, the student proves to...

...extent of computer technology usage and study habit of students from Rogationist College and the its background. Introduction Nowadays, technology became an inseparable part of our lives. It now rules the life of an average student and in the field of education in any corner of the world. It has taken over the field of education. Its influence has been taken across the world in every possible way. According to Charlie S. (2012) “Computer has been taking big parts of our lives, in different sectors such as medicine, architecture, communication, research, sports and education. But it greatly affects the sector of education, especially the students”. In this world of competition, the students should have to be educated. Everything is not taught by a teacher or in school. In facing big challenges in life, students take extra learning through technology/computers. These computers can be used for their personal or recreational activities such as listening to music, watching movies or videos, chatting, browsing, playing games and etc. We can also express our feelings through it, through social networking sites. Furthermore, the work of the students became easier in searching information they want to learn. Technology has been part of our lives like language, ritual values, arts and more. It also affects our ways of thinking that can contribute to a more progressive country. Computer technology provides an opportunity for students with the physical, emotional, and mental disabilities...

...AFFECTING THE HOURS SPENT BY CBAA STUDENTS ON STUDYING REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE Success in school is not so much determined by sheer intelligence as knowing how to study. Studying is a skill. Being successful in school requires a high level of study skills. Students must first learn these skills, practice them and develop effective study habits in order to be successful. Very often the study habits and practices developed and used in high school do not work for students in college. Good study habits include many different skills: time management, self-discipline, concentration, memorization, organization, and effort. Desire to succeed is important, too( TermpaperWarehouse.com). College students have many obstacles to overcome in order to achieve their optimal academic performance. It takes a lot more than just studying to achieve a successful college career. Different stressors such as time management, financial problems, sleep deprivation, social activities, and for some students even having children, can all pose their own threat to a student’s academic performance as well as the hours they spend on studying (Womble, 2004). Study habits are the ways that students study- the habits that they have formed during their school years. Study habits can be good ones, or bad ones. Good study habits include being organized, keeping good notes, reading the textbook, listening in class, and working every day. Being organized means the student can easily access his or her school stuffs...

...…………………………………………………………11 Proposed Business Problem Statement The importance of obtaining a college education to work in today’s society cannot be overstated. That is why in recent years high schools have started to encourage students to pursue a college education as well as begin to prepare the students for college. The current methods high schools are implementing offer general ways of preparing students for college that are often times ineffective and lack proper execution. Since college preparation is critical for high school students to increase their chance of successfully graduating from college, it is now more crucial than ever before to provide proper college preparation for tomorrow’s college students. However college preparation requires more than just helpful techniques for studying and teaching yourself. College preparation also requires a good amount of hard work and learning core subjects that form the foundation for which we build our knowledge upon in college. We are aware that the majority of future jobs involve science, mathematics, and technology skills to be successful in, that is why our tutoring subjects will primarily be focused on science and technologies. Overall, our mission is to provide a quality college preparation service paired with effective tutoring for high school students that potentially want to pursue...

...Students have to come to school sober, the teachers should too. Schools randomly drug test their students; not to mention, the teachers that educate those students never have to submit to a drug test. More than four out of five U.S. employers now require pre-employment drug tests (Join Together Staff); however, school corporations are not one of them. When parents send their children to school they are putting the safety of their children in others hands. The parents are expecting that those adults will be responsible enough to take care of their child. The schools do not even know for sure if their faculty is or is not trustworthy because the teachers do not have to undergo a drug test even before they are given the privilege to work in that...

...Students, have you ever felt really tired in the morning and wish you were back in your warm comfortable bed, well I have. That is why I think that school start times should start later. The reasons why I think we should change the school start time is because of kids mental health, physical health, and for kids ability to stay awake during school or other activities. The first reason we should start school later is because of the kids' mental health. It shows that, “Sleep deprivation increases the likelihood teens will suffer myriad negative consequences, including an inability to concentrate, poor grades, drowsy-driving incidents, and anxiety.” This shows that there will be negative consequences for teenagers if they don’t get enough sleep....

...Setting and Sample Population The sample population for this study is four third grade students in a general education class in an urban district elementary school. There are 19 students in the class. The four students read at a grade below their grade level. They are non-fluent readers and have consistently performed below par in assessments in reading. Student A is a 9 year old male Hispanic who reads at the first grade level. Student B is a 9 year old African American male who presently reads at the second grade level. Student C is a 9 year Hispanic female who reads at the second grade level. Student D is a biracial (Hispanic and African American) who reads at the second grade level. All of these students receive free lunch and have satisfactory attendance. They do not have an IEP and none of them are English Language learners even though the Hispanic students are bilingual. These four students were chosen because it was noticed that even though they were just reading at one level below their reading level, they exhibit a great lack in comprehension skills. Their reading could also be described as non-fluent. Their reading is slow, choppy, and uninspired. There are also a lot of miscues, insertions, omissions and repetitions of known sight words. After readings like this they fail to answer or answer satisfactorily comprehension questions based on the readings. Samuels (1974), believes this happens because too much of their cognitive resources are used up in trying to...

...Junior High Grades 6-8 Protocol for Natural Disaster: Tornado Tyson Lee March 3, 2013 Information about the Protocol Living in Mississippi, there are many tornadoes that hit this area. Mississippi has on average, 29 tornadoes per year. One of nature’s most violent acts is a tornado. Tornadoes can cause enough devastation to tear through a neighborhood and demolish it and they can cause fatalities. At times, a tornado can develop so quickly that advance warning can be too little too late. When preparing for a tornado, schools need to be aware of tornado watches and warnings. The National Weather Service issues a warning when conditions are favorable for the development of a tornado and a warning is issued when a tornado has been detected. In the school, there should be someone that will be monitoring the weather radio for potential bad weather. There should also be a plan and provisions set in the school for during school hours, after school hours, and any school related activities. During school hours, there need to be a procedure for relaying this information to all faculty, staff, and students. In order to make sure that all faculty, staff, and students are prepared, in the event of a real tornado, is to have a severe weather safety plan in effect where everyone can take cover within a minute. It is important to do this with regular tornado drills. This allows for all persons to be prepared in the event of a real tornado. The evacuation...
