Briefly, summarize your current test preparation strategy I really would like to say that I am studying every day and taking the proper steps to achieve maximum test results, but here I am still catching up work on Sunday. One thing that I do have on my side is my test taking ability, part of what contributes to my inherent need to procrastinate. Cramming is the only way to describe my current test preparation strategy. List three strategies you can implement to improve your test preparation. Be specific in terms of how you will put these plans into action 1. Time Management- Relating back to what we have discussed earlier in the course the single most important strategy that I could implement in my test preparation, as well as my, course work in general is time management. I can sit here and preach about …show more content…
Nutrition and Fitness- Fitness wasn't included in the presentation but it should have been. Eating right isn't enough on its own for optimal health and wellness. Exercise does wonders for the body and the mind. It relieves built up stress that you may not have even been aware of, releases chemicals in your brain to help with relaxation, as well as a number of other health benefits. Through introspection, I know that my most productive weeks go hand in hand with the number of times that I worked out those weeks. I have slowly over the past few months worked out less and less to the point now it has been about two weeks since my last run. It has taken its toll. Along those lines over the past couple of weeks, I have developed a taste for Mountain Dew, I normally drink a gallon of water a day, and I have had more soda in the past week than almost the rest of the year combined. While I may not physically see the results of my current soda binge, I can feel it mentally and physically. My plan here is simple, finish the last Mt. Dew that I have and drink some water as well as reinstate my three to four workouts a week and start losing some weight in the
Before you start working on this part of your assessment, carry out some planning by answering the following questions.
Identify one instructional strategy or student activity from the outline of plans that could be challenging for the student.
Nobody works in a single mode and very little of our communication is possible in a single mode. etc.
In everyday life many people develop habits, but it is never too late to attempt to change that bad habit to live a healthier life. For this behavioral change project, I was asked to choose a health behavior that I would like to change for the better. So, I decided that I wanted to increase the amount of water I was consuming each day. The standard recommendation on how much water an individual should consume is about 64 ounces daily. However how much a person should drink is more individualized then one might assume. Therefore, for this particular project my goal was to at least consume 64 ounces of water daily as a baseline starting point. I also had to consider days when I worked out. So, I decided that I would attempt to increase that amount
The rise of health concerns continues to proliferate throughout the country from increasing obesity rates to the astonishing number of our population with high blood pressure or diabetes. It’s enough to make anyone want to second-guess everything they eat and put in into their bodies. We ask our doctor’s, and ourselves “what can be done?” Eat right, and exercise. Those are the parameters for maintaining a healthy life. So it’s only natural that across the board we’ve got numerous exercise programs to help you lose weight fast or build lean muscle. Then we’ve got every diet under the sun, the no carb diet, high protein diet and all juice diets. Through research we can find and utilize programs and healthy habits that we can practice
This is the biggest step change for the better. It is important to evaluate strategies before apply it, that help student to meet learning need. However, it is important for student to identify and apply a new strategy that enhance student success.
The main factors that influence the development of the pretest and posttest were attitudes which were centered on how students felt socially and emotionally regarding their college readiness skills. Also, skills which was centered on their awareness in their ability to follow through with asking for help about college and careers and their ability to handle certain situations such as academic success. In addition, the pre-and post-test was designed to identify strengths and knowledge regarding resources and study habits. All these items were chosen as key factors because they allow us to measure each student ideas concerning how they may are may not apply certain resources or follow through with specific strategies given throughout this unit.
3.Working efficiently- Give yourself time to work, if you don't you will not be able to maintain your performance.
My health goal was to change my eating habits. I chose this goal because I have a bad habit of not eating as well as I should. Although I usually do not eat fast food, I eat a lot of carbs. I was raised in an Italian family so macaroni and pizza are my two worst enemies. I figured that if I used this project to get rid of my bad eating habits, I would have an easier time eating healthy after this class ends. Before starting the project I realized that there will be challenges, but this project was not meant to be simple. If behavior change was simple, then anyone would be able to change behavior whenever they wanted to.
I want to continue drinking more water every day rather than drinking a lot of sodas, because I felt a positive change in my body within the first two weeks of tracking my behavior change. Being in a better mood and having more energy has allowed me to accomplish, without getting tired, more in one day than I have since I was a little child. Before this behavior change project, I always told myself that I needed to drink more water because I know that it is better for me than sodas, or other drinks with a lot of sugar in them. Although I did not completely reach my long-term goal of drinking eight glasses per day, I still feel very accomplished and proud of myself. I was able to get up to drinking seven glasses of water per day rather than only drinking water when I ran out of sodas in the refrigerator. Without completing and reaching all of my short-term goals, I most likely would not have gotten so close to my long-term goal of drinking eight glasses of water every
The test taking lessons have helped me learn more about having good strategies for a test. I feel that with these lessons learned I can have more confidence to take a test and pass it. In this report I want to show why test taking is an important skill to learn. I also wanted to describe how I have prepared for test in the past. I also wanted to discuss three strategies I have learned from the computer tutorial in class and how I have changed my study habits so I can do better on test.
Think about the classes you currently take and those you’ve taken in the past. Consider the ways in which you preferred to learn.
Everyday it is possible to open up an issue of “Men’s Fitness” or “Muscle and Fitness” or “Modern Woman” or “TIME” or any magazine for that matter, and find the “new and/or improved” way to lose weight, improve the quality of life, or extend your years working towards the other two goals. Almost all of the methods prescribed can work; some are exercise and some are diet. For the most part though, achieving diet or exercise goals requires one to have great discipline. It has been proven, by each of these diet deveopers, that the diets they prescribe will work if the individual will just manage his caloric intake.
The goal I chose is to live a healthy lifestyle which in terms will add years to my life. In this transformation I chose to eat healthier, exercise more, drink plenty water and add supplements to my personal wellness plan. I will devote a significant amount of time to each area of this wellness plan over the next eight weeks to get the ultimate results. Below are specific goals and a plan of action that I will be doing over the course of eight weeks; in an effort to make lifestyle changes. I will be reviewing the various area of my health deciding which areas I would like to make improvements. My present situation is that I have gained a significant amount of weight that has made my life a little uncomfortable. I started by making a chart to track my plan of action in each area that I will be working on.
As of September 7, 2015, I had set myself up with a new drinking habit in which is to substitute sodas for water. In addition, setting a date to fulfill this resolution has been given me the urge to accomplish my goal. I have set my resolution for a month, which ends at the end of October, to see if I was able to maintain this new habit of substituting sodas for water. To make sure that this resolution is working for me, I was able to have my brother, Keng, helped out as my trainer and motivator. He helped with observing, recording, and keeping me on track to keep my mind off sodas. Rules and rewards were used to help and motivated me to meet my goal. In the case of breaking the rules, I was performing twenty push-ups and twenty-five
