The “C” Student Part 3


The “C” Student

Part 3

6. EFFORT: “C” students are capable of sufficient effort, but either fail to realistically evaluate the effort needed to accomplish a task successfully, or lack the desire to meet the challenge. They put forth very little effort. They don’t realize that they will be rewarded according the amount of effort they put into a project. Little effort=bad results.

7. COMMUNICATIONS: “C” students communicate in ways that often limit comprehension or risk misinterpretation. Ideas are not well formulated before they are expressed. Poor listening/reading habits inhibit matching inquiry and response.

8. RESULTS: “C” students obtain mediocre or inconsistent results on test. They have some concept of what is going on but clearly have not mastered the material.

Costa Cancordia

The captains choose the wrong by not following the rules. He made the ship get too close to shore and the boat to sink. While this was happening he chooses the wrong again by not being the last one out of the ship. By the rules he should have let the people go first then he would have gotten out he was the first to go out of the ship. If I were him I would have followed all of the rules. By him not following the rules he was on house arrest.

Part 2

Curiosity: “C” students seldom explore topics

Deeper than their face value. They lack vision and bypass interconnectedness of concepts. Immediate relevancy is often their singular test for term retention by involvement.

3. Retention: “C” students retain less information and for shorter periods. Less effort seem to go toward organizing and associating learned information with previously acquired knowledge. They display short-term retention by relying on cramming sessions that focus on details, not concepts.

4. Attitude: “C” students are not visibly committed to class. They participate without enthusiasm. Their body language often expresses boredom.

5. Talent: “C” Students vary enormously in talent. Some have exceptional ability but show undeniable signs of poor self-management or bad attitudes. Other is diligent but simply average in academic ability.

1.  ATTENDANCE: “C” students are often late and miss class frequently. They put others priorities ahead of academic work. In some cases, their health or consistent fatigue renders them physically unable to keep up with the demands of high-level performance. They think it is ‘cool’ to be tardy because it makes them think they are big shots. Skipping class is another downfall for the “C” and failing students.

2. Preparations: “C” students may prepare their assignments consistently, but often in a perfunctory manner. Their work may be sloppy or careless. At times, it is incomplete or late. They postpone doing home assignments in order to text friends, visit friend on Facebook, or send tweets to some of their followers. They take shortcuts to complete academic. They are short-sighted because they can’t see the long range destruction of taking shortcuts. It never pays off.
