Description
Class Experience
Students will learn multiple ways to take notes to retain vocabulary and concepts taught in class. Instructor will provide students with examples of all organizational tips and allow for students to practice using strategies in the sessions. Instructor will help students adapt strategies to benefit their learning styles. Students will learn how to organize their time around school and extracurricular activities so that they will be timely with assignments and projects.
Learners will be asked each week to use a strategy and share how it worked for them at the following session. Practicing use of strategies taught is a way for instructor to assess the effectiveness of the strategy for each individual learner. Learners will be asked to bring class syllabi or rubrics to the session so they can have real experiences with structuring their calendars to meet timelines.
Instructor will review student binders and interactive notebooks to provide feedback on how well concepts are being used. Feedback will be given to the learner and parent.
30 minutes per week in class, and no time outside of class.
