GETTING READY TO LEARN (by : Dr. Mohamad Azmi bin Nias Ahmad)


Making the transition (from school to university)

Learning at the university are too different when we are learning at secondary school.

In university :
  • spend less time in class
  • study outside of class
  • need read a lot of books
  • have fewer test (quiz, assignment)
  • might not reminded of due dates and exams
  • no extensions of due dates
  • you are responsible for your own learning or behaviours
  • instructors don't tell you exactly what notes to take
Characteristics of Successful Students

As a student we have to be responsible to attend the classes everyday and complete the all assignments on the time.
