It can be described as goals that focus on learning the material or on mastering new skills 2. Mastery goals motivate students to learn the course material to master it for the sake of learning 3. It helps students persist even when the task is boring or difficult. After that, the Performance Goals. It has 3 types, so the first is Performance are goals that involve achieving good grades or gaining praise or recognition by outperforming others. The second one is Students motivated by performance-approach goals generally work hard to earn the top grade or be the best in the class. And the last one is Students motivated by performance-avoidance goals only work hard enough to avoid a low grade or looking bad compared to others. Other than that is Strategies For Increasing Motivation (SFIM). SFIM has 12 types. It was Set challenging but realistic goals, Set learning goals, See the value in the task, Have a positive attitude, Use positive self-talk, Increase your level of interaction, Get your money's worth, learn from your mistake, Monitor your learning, Break down tasks, Use active study strategies and Work hard. Often that, to be a successful student you must have 4 characteristics. It was Active, Strategic, Self-Regulated, and an Independent. Next, Components Of Strategic Learning have 3 components is Skill, Will, and Self-Regulation. Stages Of Self-Regulated Learning has 3 types is Planning, Monitoring, and Evaluation. Next, What Are Learning Styles?. Learning Styles refer to the way you acquire, process, and retain information the way you learn best. Learning Modalities are Visual, Auditory, and Kinesthetic. Other than that, strategies have 3 types. First, Strategies for Visual Learners, second, Auditory Learners and third is Kinesthetic Learners. So, the Visual Learners it's Read and highlight, Visualize pictures, charts, and diagrams, Outline information, Edit lecture notes, Color-code notes, Write out steps in a process for math, Create study sheets, Write word cards, Make questions in the margin, Take online tests, and Create visual images to connect information. Next, Auditory Learners is Read text out loud, Recite at the end of headed sections, Explain information, Record lectures and play them when you commute, Recite from the headings in lecture notes, Recite answers to questions in the margin Teach the material to someone else, Create a taped self-test, Explains the steps for solving math problems, and Create rhymes, poems, and songs to recall information.

 Next, I start chapter 2. The title is Goal Setting. What are the goals on this chapter is ends toward which you direct your effort. How goal setting improves performance is goals direct your attention to the task at hand, goals mobilize effort, goals increase persistence, and goals promote the development of new strategies when old strategies fall short. Other than that, the characteristics of goals are self-chosen, moderately challenging. realistic, measurable, specific, finite, and positive. Next, we go to types of goals. Types of goals have 5. It is long-term goals, short-term goals, academic goals, personal goals, and career goals. Set goals for the new semester is open to change, set priorities for the three weeks, plan for early success, maintain academic honesty, improve your academic standing, plan rewards, consider consequences, learn how to calculate your GPA, and revise your goals periodically. Next, is the main reasons students are reluctant to change. They believe they can't change, they don't want to change, they don't know what the change is, and they don't know how to change. Other reasons students are reluctant to change are they don't think the change will help, they don't use the strategies correctly, they don't achieve success immediately, and they don't allow enough time to see the impact of the change. Next, we go to the 5 steps approach to setting goals. step 1 is to write down what you want to accomplish, step 2 is to write down any obstacles, step 3 is to write down any resources, step4 is to list your motivation, and step 5 is to review and revise your tentative goal statement. Next, is to develop action plans. First, set action tasks, second, list the material you need, third, set time frames, and fourth is evaluate your plan. Next, is exploring career goals.

It is campus resources, community resources, and online resources. And the last one is about, evaluate your decision. Reassess your career choice at the end of each semester. Are you earning high grades in your major classes?, Did you fail or withdraw from any classes necessary for your major?, and Is this something you want to do for the rest of your life?

 Next, we go to chapter 3. The title of this chapter is Time Management. This chapter has how do you manage your time now ?. So the answer is to keep a time log every day for one week and complete a prospective-retrospective calendar every day for one week. Identify time available for study is complete a fixed commitment calendar. So the first thing is you must write your fixed commitment, identify available study blocks, highlight the perimeters of the blocks, make copies of your schedule changes. and total your available study time. Next, identify a need for the study. Consider your credit load, consider the difficulty level of your classes, consider your grade goals, learn how long it takes to do your assignments, and monitor your current study time. Establish a new time plan that reduces your credit load, reduces your fixed commitments, and cuts back on extra-curricular activities. Next, organize your study time. Create an assignment calendar, prepare a running list, and use daily "to do" lists. Next, schedule your study tasks: to stay motivated. Is assign tasks to available study time, use your fixed commitment calendar to schedule your study tasks, use your daytime study hours, use the time between classes, study in one-hour blocks, take breaks, tackle difficult assignments first, switch subjects, break tasks down, work hard and, plan reward. Next, is how to manage multiple projects. First, make a plan, set priorities, develop a system, and monitor your progress. Three main causes of procrastination. It is self-downing, low fraction tolerance, and hostility. Next, why do students procrastinate lack motivation?. It's because weren't successful the last time, the task isn't relevant. the task lacks value, lack of clear, specific goals, unclear about what to do, and tired or doesn't feel well. Next, why students procrastinate: lack of self-regulation. It's because of not planning, getting behind in your work, overscheduling, there are better things to do, and waiting for the perfect time, place, or mood. Next, motivational strategies for overcoming procrastination. First, just get started, use positive self-talk, set realistic goals, clarify the directions, start with the easiest part of the task, break down large tasks, recognize that not all assignments are easy, recognize that all courses are relevant, and plan rewards. Self-regulation strategies for overcoming procrastination are completing an assignment calendar, creating "to do" lists, scheduling your tasks, setting priorities, avoiding overscheduling, and identifying escapist techniques.

And the last chapter is reading your textbook. So the first is about general strategies for reading college textbooks is preview your textbooks, read ten pages at a time, and monitor your comprehension. Become a critical thinker. Critical thinking involves identifying, thinking about, reflecting on, and evaluating information to solve a problem or make a decision. Next, is three definitions of critical thinking. Next, Robert Ennis, says "Critical thinking is reasonable, reflective thinking focused on deciding what to believe or do". And from John Chaffee, "Critical thinking is a cognitive process we use to carefully examine our thinking and the thinking of others in order to clarify and improve our understanding". Three parts of critical thinking are critical thinking involves asking questions, critical thinking involves trying to answer those questions by reasoning them out, and critical thinking involves believing the results of your reasoning and taking action based on that belief. This part is from Gerald Nosich. Next, is some characteristics of critical thinkers. It's about you need to ask questions, gather information, examine beliefs, be open-minded, consider other views, consider all alternatives, be fair-minded, reflective, make reasonable decisions, flexible thinkers, evaluate sources, interested in solving problems, value others input, act on their decisions, systematically solve problems, think before acting, examine the evidence, identify reliable sources of information, identify biases or assumptions, and explore all possible solutions. Next, the problem-solving process has five. It defines the problem, considers the alternatives, makes a plan, takes action, and evaluates the results. John Chafee's five-step approach to problem-solving. Define clearly the decision to be made, consider all possible choices, gather all relevant information and evaluate the pros and cons of each possible choice, select the choice (s) that best meet the needs of the situation, and implement a plan of action and monitor the results, making necessary adjustments. To become a critical reader you must be involved in questioning, analyzing, and evaluating what you read. Next, five critical reading skills. First, you must be the comprehension person, application, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. Next, we go to comprehension strategies is preview before reading, making word card, reading to the end of the paragraph before marking, rereading if you don't understand, highlighting or taking notes, utilizing text-based study aids, completing exercise or reviews, referring to the graphic as they are mentioned in the text, and stop and think about what you read and recite key points. Application strategies. Think about how the material is related to what you already know, think about how examples demonstrate the points being made, make up your example, apply the information to questions, activities, or exercises in the chapter. Next, is analysis strategies. First, pay attention to headings and subheadings, identify main points and highlights them or write them in the margin, write specific questions in the margin, look for supporting points and mark them or write them under each key point in the margin, and compare points made in the conclusion to points made earlier in the texts. Synthesis strategies take notes to move details under appropriate headings, write general questions in the margin, summarize information in your words, compare information from different sections of the text, take notes on similarities and differences, create maps and charts, and create study sheets. Next, evaluation strategies are thinking about the author's purpose for writing, considering the author's credibility, do the facts, reasons, details, and examples support the author's conclusions? is there sufficient evidence to prove the points being made? watch for bises language, and annotate the text to gather and evaluate the information that is presented. Three reading study systems is P2R, SQ3R, and S-RUN-R. The P2R reading study system is a preview, read actively, and review. The SQ3R reading student system is a survey, question, read, recite, and review. And the last one is the S-RUN-R reading study system surveys, read, underline, note-taking, and review.
