Success in college and beyond involves developing knowledge, skills and habits. Below are three easy ways you can gain practice and begin to build success at 绿帽社:

  1. Attend every class. Participation in a classroom or an online learning context is key to success. If you are unable to attend class or participate online, make sure you inform your instructor and make alternate arrangements if possible. All classes should have policies for attendance and participation noted in the course syllabus.
  2. Read everything that鈥檚 assigned. Many courses have textbooks or readings of some type. It is difficult to participate or have the background knowledge to complete other aspects of the course if you have not read the assigned materials. Notify your instructor or success coach if you are having trouble acquiring the reading materials for the course.
  3. Turn in all assignments. Assignments give you the opportunity to practice what you are learning in a course. They are also the basis for much of the grade in a course. Missing or late assignments often result in a zero, which can significantly lower your grade.
