Re: Hi, I would like to know who can help me with my course procedure and teach me how to be a better student with the lessons

Hello there, Geozzle!

I have been in the program for about  year and a half now, so I have a bit of experience with successfully learning the lesson material.

1. First, I find the courses page here on the community. Say I was starting Physical Science. I would find the page and follow it to familiarize myself with the questions other student have. Also, it is important to find this page because there can be important and helpful tips, links and messages from the instructor. To find a Courses page on the community:
   1. Under the tab "Academic Groups" choose either "College" "Career School" or "High School"
   2. Then on the left hand side there will be a section labeled "Related Spaces"
   3. Find the subject that you are looking for and then select the "View 3 Subspaces"  or "View -any number of- Spaces"
   4. There will be the specific subject that you were looking for, you then select it.
      1. It bring you to the page that you were looking for.
      2. In the top right hand corner there should be an option to "Follow" the group.
2. The next thing that I do is check the top of the course box for the Resources (these will appear before the lessons them selves). They can include a "Video Introduction" tab, "Student Resource" tab, and "Meet your Instructor, Q and A, Tips and Tools for Success" tab, but these options may vary form course to course. I find it very important to utilize these tabs.
3. When you begin a lesson make sure that you familiarize yourself with the "Table of Contents". This can be really helpful so that you know where you are in the textbook and where to look when you have a question.
4. The next thing that I do is break down the major sections of the textbook (using the Table of Contents) into what I call "Assignments". This helps break up the work in way that makes the most sense to me.
5. Complete all of the Self Checks! They are very helpful. I treat them like quizzes. I even score them. They are a great way to keep track of what you're actually learning from the lesson material.
6. Take your time with each lesson and all of the course material. Don't rush. Take time to actually learn the material and understand it.
7. Copy down/study the graphs/examples that you are given. There can be vital information to your lesson material hidden in the graphs and examples.
8. Along with that, study the pictures and tables given in the lesson material, as well as their captions.
9. Utilize the retake option for you Exams. Do not be afraid to retake an Exam if what you scored isn't up to your standards. There is no shame in trying to get the best score possible.

Aside from all of that I would say to actually take notes. I am not sure of your note taking style but I know that it really helps me to take notes. When I have a physical textbook I highlight, underline, and use post-it notes. When I have an eBook I take extensive notes and I sometimes make flash cards as well. It really helps to have the info on paper in front of me.

I am not sure what sort of answer that you were looking for, but I hope that these tips can help you in you studies.

I wish you the best of luck and I hope that you have a splendid day!
