  1. Student Learning By: Alea Thorne May 2010 Computer Science 101 9am 203

  2. Introduction For our computer science 101 class each student was assigned to write a report about learning and how we learn. We were also assigned to keep track of are everyday actions on what we did for an education bases with a SBR sheet. Lastly we were assigned to keep track of our weight, food intake, and exercise for the quarter. Trough these assignments I learned a lot about the process of learning as well as weakness of mine that hold me back to reach my full learning potential.

  3. Metacognition • Metacognition is the active monitoring and regulation of cognitive processes • Elements to metacognition: • Developing a plan • What is it you want to accomplish and how? • Maintaining/monitoring a plan • Do the plan/ assignment try to reach your goal • Evaluating the plan • Finish did you accomplish your goal?

  4. Procrastination • Why: • afraid of the outcome • believe something is a waste of time • Feel that the assignment is too hard • How to overcome: • spot straight away that you're doing it. • identify why you're procrastinating • develop: • good time management • organizational habits • personal effectiveness habits

  5. Effective Listening • The average person listens only 25% effectively • Effective listening is one of the key factors in learning • How to be Better: • actively absorb information given to you by a speaker • show that you are listening and interested • eye contact, • face and lean toward the speaker • nod your head when appropriate • provide feedback to the speaker

  6. Effective Note taking • One of the key factors in learning is note taking! • How to become an effective note taker: • keep separate section of your notebook or binder for each course. • For each lecture begin on a new page with a date of the lecture and numbering • Brief notes; words/phases • put notes in own words expect for formulae’s, definitions and specific facts • rewrite or type your notes as soon as possible • review the notes before each class • when looking over the notes highlight information. • have a study buddy in the class

  7. My Outcome of Effective Note Taking Part of being an effective note taker is to review notes before/ after class. This table shows that when I reviewed my notes I scored higher grades than when I did not.

  8. My outcome for Study buddies A suggestion for being an effective listener and note taker is to have a study buddy. Through this graph you can tell every day that I decided to use a study buddies I either got 100% on the lab or close to it. This shows that study buddies are truly helpful in the learning process.

  9. Conclusion Through my report and SBR database I learned a lot about learning and how I learn. I also learned what I need to work on and how to develop a plan to go about strengthening my weakness so I may continue to learn on my most potential.
