Do the Reading

You need to do more than just read the chapters you are assigned—you’re expected to understand them thoroughly. Here are some tips:

·       Don’t skim. Read all the material carefully.

·       Break up difficult assignments into sections you can digest— chapters, subsections or even paragraphs.

·       Look up any words that you don’t understand

·       Pause to think about whether you understand the material; ask questions in class about anything that is unclear.

·       Take notes instead of highlighting—this makes you think through and rephrase the key points.

·       Create a summary sheet of what you learned from each assignment you read.

My strategies for written assignments: Everyone has their own writing styles. I generally come up with an idea and do massive amounts of research before I ever think about writing. I then organize my research then sometimes prepare an outline before actually writing. I always print out the paper and come back to it the next day and reread it. That is the easiest way for me to catch my own mistakes. I have to give my eyes a break from it, and If I just wrote it I think it looks perfect. But if I look at it a day later, I almost always find grammatical errors or phrases and sentences I just want to reword.

How I succeed in team projects: Never assume someone is doing what they are supposed to be doing. Have regular meetings and have each member show their work, not just give you or the group their word for it.
