Student Success Statement
“You must live in the present to secure your future.”
Reverend Robert Craig

This is an amazing quote by Robert Craig. To secure any chance of achievement you must focus on the objective itself at that time not in the future where you will lose the opportunity to achieve something. The reference of time is effective in portraying a sense of urgency. To succeed in something you must focus on that particular objective at that particular because in the near future you will be preoccupied with something else. Temporal adaption is required to succeed in certain situations that obligate us to do something at an undesired time, but you can either act at the correct time or wait and lose whatever chance you have of accomplishing something.

Guidelines for Getting a Group Together

Here are some guidelines for creating and running a study group: How many? Create a group of four to six people. In a larger group, it’s easy for someone to get left out and smaller groups can too easily get off track.

Who? Pick classmates who seem to share your interest in doing well academically. Look for people who stay alert in class, take notes, ask questions and respond to the teacher’s questions. Include someone who understands the material better than you and can explain the concepts and someone who doesn’t understand it well, to whom you can explain the material.

Where? Hold study group sessions in a place that is free of distractions and that has room to spread out books and notes.

How long? Meet for no more than two or three hours at a time. Having a time limit helps the group focus. If you know you only have an hour, you’re more likely to stay on task.

When? Try to meet regularly, on the same day and time each week. Treating the study session as you would other activities helps you to keep to a schedule and ensures that everyone attends.
