Last One's A Doozy

TECH Entry 10

            This week, the strategy I found that helped myself out with my classes for finals the most was the “Graphic Organizer” test prep strategy, and I used it to help me study for my final exam coming up around the corner in IST 195.  I feel that out of any of the strategies I learned in this course so far, using graphic organizers has been the most beneficial to me in my other classes because they make it easy to study for tests and even help to keep me on track when I am writing a paper.

Since I am a visual learner, I really benefit from setting up information I need to study for an exam and then reviewing it in that visual form rather than just looking at a bunch of words on a piece of paper or my computer screen.

The final TECH---prepare for my final exams!

I have to admitted that time flies! I have one more week I can go back  to my home, but before that I have to concetrate on my final exams. This week the strategies I used was ranking priority and acedemic fears.

Because we have already got t othe end of this semester so that is means our tasks would have an end. This week I jave a lot of tings have to do, so sometimes I lost my directions and did not know what I should do now. so the ranking priority would be a best way to help me organized all the task I did. I used  different colour in different courses si this will easilt regonized how much I should do on each of he courses.  After I did this everytime I felt confused  I have directions to keep doing my work.

Another strategy I used this week was acedemic fear, because to be honest I felt so stressful about my finl exam of my major class-ist195. Not only because this was the my major but because the contet of this exam is different from previoue two. on the first two exams of this course the questions are all based on the lecture but this time 80% of the questions was from the textbook. So i need acedemic fear to help me analyse the outcome.  when I finished the analyze I found acutally it isnot that bad if I failed so all I can do is relax and try my best to prepare it.

Building Blocks to Finish

this week i am going to use building blocks to finish strategy. 

as final weeks coming, i have already been busy.  in the next two weeks, i have a lot of to do. i will have couples of exams and final exam, which are very stressful. besides those exams, i also will have a project, which is from cls 105. it is future career exploration. however, i have already finished it during the thanksgiving break. it helped me to save a lot of time for my finals. in addition, i want to talk about my final schedule. basically, i will take statistic exams, linguistic exam, and psychology exam. in the next week, i have to take psy exam, which is on friday. on thruseday, i have to take my third statistic exam.  after the next week, which is the final week of this semester, i will take my linguistic exam, and i will take my statistic final.  my focus of next one week is statistic and my psy class.  after next week, i will focus on studying statistic again, at the same time i will also study the linguistic, which is very hard i think.
