Welcome to my homework website. Click the link to your class on the sidebar to find homework, notes and other class necessities.
study methods:
- ask questions in class, it is easier to clarify when things are just slightly fuzzy.
- teach someone else, a parent, aunt, uncle, cousin, well known neighbor and encourage your 'student' to ask questions. You learn so much by teaching!
- the iPads offer an amazing tool in that I can give you the notes/outlines of the lecture so that you are free to pay attention to the descriptions and explanations in class. Just because you have that information doesn't mean you know it. Pay attention in class, ask questions. Go home and recopy your notes into your own words, reorganize the material (there is more than one way to put the info together, making new connections reinforces your understanding of the material)
- Biology students: take advantage of the online Study Area in Mastering Biology. There are pretests and practice cumulative tests you can take, MP3 files you can listen to and animations to watch, all of which will help you to differentiate what you know from what you need more help with.
- COME IN AND TALK TO ME!! We can make arrangements to sit down and discuss the areas causing you to have concerns.
