Research with Attitude
Conduct your research with attitude of a skeptic. As you examine websites for clue that they’re trustworthy, ask these questions:
-Who wrote the web page? If you can identify the individual or organization responsible for the information, don’t use it.
-What are the author’s qualifications for writing on the subject?
-Has the article passed through an editorial process designed to ensure quality and accuracy?
-What is website’s purpose? Look for motives-like selling products or winning votes-that could result in biased or incomplete information.
-Is the information accuracy?


                              CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!

Student Success Statement


                  Student Success Statement
“When an archer misses the mark, he turns and looks for the fault within himself. Failure to hit the bull-eye is never the fault of the target. To improve your aim, improver yourself.”
                                                         -Gilbert Arland
REFLECTION:
What these quotes of Gilbert Arland mean to me is saying that whenever a person makes a mistake that person itself finds a right way to fix it and make it better without including anybody else so to help out make sure you know what’s right yourself.

SQ3R


                                SQ3R
            SQ3R=Survey –Question-Read-Recite-Review 
Recite
At the end of each section, look up from the text and in your own words recite an answer to your question for that section. Then write down your answer. Be sure to provide examples that support it. Now repeat the Question, Read and Recite steps for each section of the chapter. First ask a question for the next section. Then read to find the answer. Finally, recite the answer in your own words and jot it down. The written question and answers can help you study in the future.
Review
After completing the chapter, review your notes. Identify the main points by looking for the most important idea in each section.  Recite, or write, a brief summary of the assignments.
Review your study notes every week to help you remember the information. When it’s time to prepare for your test, you’ll find you’ve created an invaluable study guide.

SQ3R


                                    SQ3R
                      SQ3R=Survey-Question-read –Recite- Review
Questions
As you survey the text, ask a question for each section. Ask what, why, how, when, who and where questions as they relate to the content. Here’s how you can create questions:
-Turn the title, headings or subheadings into questions.
-Review the questions at the end of the chapter or after each subheading in your own words.
Write down your questions. Questions help you pay attention, understand the text better and recall the information more easily later on.
Read
Read one section of the chapter at a time, actively looking for answer to your question for that section . Pay attention to bold and italicized text that authors use to make important points.
Be sure to review everything in the section, including tables, graphs and illustrations-these features can communicate an idea more powerfully than written text.
                               CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!

REFLECTION:

Let’s say your assignment is to read one chapter. First, get an idea of what the chapter is about by reviewing the highlights:
-Read the title, headings and subheadings.
-Notice words that are italicized or bold.
-Read captions.
-Read the very begging and end of the chapter.
