1. WHAT IS GOAL ?

Goal is the object of person's ambition or effort ; an aim or desired result /
#destination_of_journey
#point_marking_at_the_end_of_a_race

Goal should be : S.M.A.R.T
-Specific
-Measurable
-Achievable
-Realistic
-Time based

2. WHY WE NEED TO HAVE WHAT WE WANT TO ACHIEVED ?

-Important in varsity life because they helped motivate you to do work, attend classes and study for examination .

-Improved your academic performance in university by learning to set goals that motivate you to do well in the future .

-Even though you already may have set some goal before in your life , chance are you though little about whether those goals were realistic or not .

3.GOAL SHOULD BE REALISTIC 

- The goal must be your own decision , not parents or teacher

-The goal must be moderately challenging , have a chance

-The goal must be measurable 

-The goal must be specific . Example : Don't set i want to gain ANC , just said i want to gain GPA over 3.5 every semester .

-The goal must be finite , means having a limit or bounds .

-The goal must be positive


4. GOAL SETTING .

- We must set our goal .
- Goal can be in short term or long term 
- Goal can be in academic and personal 
- Goal must be what we want , don't just follow others .
- Goal cannot be wrong and right , it's your decision to make your own path

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My Goal setting is :

ACADEMIC

- Achieved Dekan Award for at least 1 semester in Diploma . 

- Graduate on time

- Start Degree when 22 years

Before that , let me show you the syllabus content of all STUDY SKILL lesson we will learn in this interim's semester .

2.  Goal Setting
3.  Library & Campus Resources
4.  Time Management & Organizational Skills
5.  Memory Learning & Improving Concentration
6.  Taking Lecture Notes
7.  Academic Integrity & Performance 

TODAY , I WILL SHARE ABOUT "TIME MANAGEMENT & ORGANIZATIONAL SKILLS " LESSON .

TIME

WE ALL KNOW ABOUT TIME , BUT DO WE REALLY KNOW WHAT ITS ACTUALLY IS ? WHAT IS TIME ?

Noun- Time is the indefinite continued progress of existence and in the events in the past , present and future

Verb- Time is plan , schedule , or arrange when (something) should happen or be done


SCHEDULE

Schedule

The ability to use one's time effectively or productively , especially at work that is what we call as can plan time with a schedule .

Schedule is very important to student for their time management . Without it , most of student will waste their time in innapopriate way.

This is one of the key to success in university world .





SLEEP

There will always a rumor that " if not staying up late to study , you will not success " . No ! its wrong ! You stay up late to study because your time management is weak .

When you study up until midnight or morning , maybe you get used to it BUT think about tomorrow classes . Is you feel sleepy , its just useless .

The best time to sleep is in about 7-8 hours .



TIME MANAGEMENT

Method for time management is :

1. DAILY SCHEDULE :

What are you going to do everyday . Example : 6a.m. go Solat Subuh

2. WEEKLY SCHEDULE :

Plan anything important to put in the first place . Example : Friday go to wash cloth

3. SEMESTER CALENDAR :

Need to know and plan for the study , examination and holiday.

4. ACADEMIC VS PERSONAL :

Need to put priority to something more important .Example : Azri's birthday party and CTU101 examination , so need to put examination for priority .

5. AVOID PROCRASTINATION !!!!!!!!

Please avoid this things ! Procrastination is the act of putting off intentionally the doing of something that should be done . Most of the failure comes from here . Please remember !
Example :
Today - I do it tomorrow .
Tomorrow - I do it tomorrow
The next day - I do it later
The 4th day - Still have time , wait
The next day until eternity - I do it next time ( Never do it )


REASON OF DELAYING TASK ( PROCRASTINATION )

Perfectionist :
Want his task to be so perfect , he delay to send for doing it again over and over

Avoid failure :
Afraid because he doesn't have confidence with his task . He afraid he will get low mark .

Being rebellious :
Have issue with group member / lecturer because of different opinion . Denied to do work with/for them .

Feeling overwhelmed :
He has a problem and refuse to do anything because of stress . Example : Lost of parents .

Lazy :
Distract by others technology , phone laptop etc that makes them don't want to do on time .


ADAVANTAGE OF BEING ORGANIZED

1. Keep on schedule and meet deadline

2. Complete work without stress

3. Reduce stress - Because we in control

4. Build your confidence


BEFORE I END MY BLOG FOR TODAY , I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE TO YOU ALL ABOUT MY SCHEDULE .

SO THIS IS ALL FROM ME FOR THIS SESSION . SO UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN ! I WILL POST MORE , SO STAY TUNED !

ACADEMIC INTEGRITY AND PERFORMANCE

Assalamualaikum & " SALAM UITM DI HATIKU "

Hello to all readers ! Its me , Azwan from UITM Raub , Pahang . This week , i'm going to share about what I learned from my 4th study skill lesson .

Before that , let me show you the syllabus content of all STUDY SKILL lesson we will learn in this interim's semester .

    SYLLABUS CONTENT

1.  Getting Ready To Learn
2.  Goal Setting
3.  Library & Campus Resources
4.  Time Management & Organizational Skills
5.  Memory Learning & Improving Concentration
6.  Taking Lecture Notes
7.  Academic Integrity & Performance 

I bet this is one of the best topic we will learn !

FOR THIS DAY , I WILL SHARE ABOUT  " ACADEMIC INTEGRITY & PERFORMANCE " LESSON  , JUST TO BE CLEAR , THIS TOPIC WE WILL HAVE 2 SUBTOPIC .

FOR THE FIRST SUBTOPIC , WE WILL HAVE :

MODUL7.1 : PLAGIARISM

PLAGIARISM IS TAKING OTHERS WORK AND MAKE IT AS YOUR OWN WORK WITHOUT GIVING CREDIT TO THE ONE WHO CREATED THE IDEA .

IN YOUR ASSIGNMENT , IF MORE THAN 30% OF IT IS FROM A PLAGIARIZED , YOUR ASSIGNMENT WOULD GET NO MARK !

 

SO , TO PREVENT SUCH A THING LIKE THIS , YOU NEED TO KNOW HOW TO PREVENT FROM PLAGIARISM .

1.  CREDIT.

IF YOU USE AUTHOR SPECIFIC WORD , YOU MUST GIVE THEM CREDIT FOR IT

FOR EXAMPLE : " ANYONE WHO HAS NEVER MADE A MISTAKE , HAS NEVER TRIED ANYTHING NEW "

-ALBERT EINSTEIN

2  YOU MUST CREATE AN IDEA FROM INFORMATION YOU GET  (PHRARAPRASE)

FROM WHAT INFORMATION YOU GOT , YOU CANT COPY IT RIGHT AWAY . IN FACT , YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND IT , AND TRY TO CHANGE IT TO YOUR OWN WORD .
EVENTHOUGH YOU USE YOUR OWN WORD , IF THE IDEA YOU GET IS NOT FROM A COMMON KNOWLEDGE , YOU STILL NEED TO STATE FROM WHERE YOU GET THE SOURCES .

3. COMMON KNOWLEDGE

IF YOUR POINT IS FROM A COMMON IDEA , YOU DONT NEED TO STATE WHERE YOU GET THE SOURCES .

FOR EXAMPLE :

-WATER FREEZE AT 0'C DEGREE

-EVEREST IS THE TALLEST MOUNTAIN IN THE WORLD.

BUT IN CASE IF YOUR WORLD IS BOTH OF GENERAL AND SPECIFIC IDEA , AND YOU USE EXACT WORD FROM THE SOURCES YOU GET , YOU STILL NEED TO GIVE CREDIT TO THE AUTHOR.

7.2  CALCULATING GRADE POINT AVERAGE ( GPA )

AS A STUDENT , YOU NEED TO KNOW HOW TO CALCULATE GRADE POINT AVERAGE SO THAT YOU CAN PLAN ON HOW YOU CAN REACH WHAT YOU AIM .

SO AS YOU CAN SEE , THIS IS THE GPA FOR EACH SUBJECT .

THERE ARE 2 TYPE OF IT , GPA AND CGPA

GPA IS AVERAGE POINT OF ALL SUBJECT FOR 1 SEMESTER

CGPA IS AVERAGE POINT OF ALL SEMESTER THE STUDENT HAVE STUDIED

BELOW IS THE EQUATION ON HOW TO CALCULATE GPA AND CGPA

FOR EVERY SEMESTER . IF YOU GPA IS NOT GOOD , YU COULD GET SOME OF THESE STATUS

FOR THIS SESSION , I HAVE BEEN GIVEN EXERCISES ABOUT CALCULATING GPA AND CGPA , SO I WILL SHOW IT HERE .

SO , THIS IS ALL FROM ME FOR THIS SESSION , I WILL UPLOAD MORE

FOR NEXT SESSION , SO STAY TUNED AND THANKS FOR WATCHING !

MEMORY LEARNING & IMPROVING CONCENTRATION

FOR THIS DAY , I WILL SHARE ABOUT " MEMORY LEARNING & ORGANIZATIONAL SKILLS " LESSON .

1. TO DO WELL IN STUDY , WE NEED THE ABILITY TO LEARN WELL THAT IS :

• Understand memory process
• Have a Memory Strategy
• Understand concentration
• Have a strategy to increase concentration
• Reading / Study system

2. LEARNING PYRAMID

Lecture - 5%
Reading - 10%
Audio visual - 20%
Demonstration - 30%
Discussion group - 50%
Practice by doing - 75%
Teach Others - 90%







3. MEMORY INFO

We have 3 flow in our memory which is :

• Encoding / Input - 5 sense

• Storage , 3 type of memory

          - Sensory memory

          - Short term memory : will last in between 30 second to 24 hours

          - Long term memory : will kept in your memory forever

• Retrieval / Output - talking , writing

4. REASON

How can someone have a low memory ?

- Distraction from many things

- Low concentration when study

- Don't know how to manage time

How can someone have a high memory ?

- They love the things they learn

- His choice of taking the action

- Repeat to read more
- Do a lot of exercise


5. TYPE OF PRACTISE WE ARE DOING , THEY ARE 2 TYPE OF IT

• Massed Practise - This practise is the practise we do in last minutes , really not recommended to all student because this type of practise will only went into a short term memory , and you will easily forget what you have learnt

• Space Practise - Relax when study , study everyday for at least 10 minutes to revise what have they learnt . No rush in this study . This type of practise really recommended for student . Things we learnt will be safely saved in our long term memory .

6. 4 EASY WAY TO REMEMBER SOMETHING

a) ACRONYMS

Take the front letter of the things to create something easy to remember .

For example :

Malaysia Airline System - MAS

University Technology Mara - UITM

b) ACROSTIC

This way is similar to acronyms but we create a sentences with the front letter

Example :  Rainbow colour ( In Malay )

- Merah , Jingga , Kuning , Hijau , Biru , Indigo , Unggu

we can create acrostic such as :

Michael Jackson Kill His Brother In University , take from the letter M , J , K , H , B , I , U

c) MNEMONIC

Its to trick our mind and make it funny so that we can easily understand and memorised the thing we studies . Normally someone will use funny acronyms or melody .

d) ELABORATION STRATERGY (MIND MAP )

• Drawing something so we can easily visual it
• Must know how to separate the point

7. STRATEGY TO INCRASE CONCENTRATION

- Motivational & organizational strategy

- Positive learning environment

- Deal with internal distraction

- Use active learning strategy

- Match your learning style

- Monitor your concentration

8. HOW TO STUDY STRATERGIC WITH ( SQ3R )


I) SURVEY - see the whole topic and subtopic before lecturer start the lesson

II) QUEASTION - ask a question from the topic and try to think of it

III) READ - read it and try to answer your question

IV) RECITE

Assalamualaikum and   " SALAM UITM DI HATIKU "




Hey bro ! Whatsup ! Im Azwan from UITM Raub , Pahang . Haha , this is actually my first time doing this stuff , i mean making a blog ! Oh wow its so hard , but i feel so great to learn a new thing !

OK , im not gonna waste your time chit chat like this forever . First of all , let me show you the syllabus content of all STUDY SKILL  lesson we will learn in this interim's semester . 


       SYLLABUS CONTENT

1.  Getting Ready To Learn
2.  Goal Setting
3.  Library & Campus Resources
4.  Time Management & Organizational Skills
5.  Memory Learning & Improving Concentration
6.  Taking Lecture Notes
7.  Academic Integrity & Performance 

TODAY WE GONNA START WITH " GETTING READY TO LEARN " SYLLABUS
GETTING READY TO LEARN ! 

This title is the first syllabus for everyone .

1. University is not like your old school 
THINGS CHANGES WHEN WE STUDY IN OTHER LEVEL , SAMES GOES WHEN YOU ARE GRADUATE FROM YOUR KINDERGARTEN TO YOUR PRIMARY SCHOOL . YOUR TEACHERS MAY NOT ASKING YOU TO DANCE AND SING ABC  ANYMORE RIGHT ?







- When we are in secondary and primary school , teachers are the one need to find us . (Classroom)
- But , when we are in university , theres no more teacher find student , its student find teacher ( Lecturer Room )
- Here , if you miss class , you miss everything ! Lecturer will not repeat it again and you need to find it by yourself , not like when we were in school where teacher will teach us several time and even doing extra classes for those who did not attend their class .



 2.  Independent and courage !

WE NEED TO INDEPENDENT WHEN MAKING A DECISION ALL BY OURSELF AND FACE ALL THE RISK ALONE .SELF CONFIDENT IS NEEDED TO PUSH US BEYOND OUR ABILITY . REMEMBER , OUR PARENTS NOT THERE WHEN YOU NEED THEM , YOU'RE IN UNIVERSITY BRO !







-Your cloth , your food , your shoes , everything need to settled by yourself ! If before this our mothers is the one wash our cloth , now you need to do that alone .
-For study , maybe before this your teacher help you a lot , staying up from morning until evening only to help you understand the lesson . But not here , you'll not be feed by lecturer , you are with your own .


3. Friend is your closest parent



FINDING A GOOD FRIEND IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTING THINGS OF BEING SUCCESSFUL IN LIFE .  BECAUSE THEY LIVE WITH YOU , THEY KNOW ABOUT YOU MORE THAN OTHERS HERE .







Find a good friend to guide you to a right path . In university , your friend is your parent . You live , eat ,and share everything with friends . Friend can share happiness together with us , but Good friend will share happy and sad moment together .
" TO FIND A GOOD FRIEND IS HARD , BUT TO BE A GOOD FRIEND IS THE HARDEST "


4. Attendance

ATTENDANCE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS ! ONE DAY ABSENT , YOU'LL REGRET FOREVER . THE LESSON YOUR CLASSMATE LEARN WILL NOT BE REPEAT . YOU NEED TO SEARCH FOR OTHERS ALTERNATIVE






- Everyday lecturer will give us variety of notes , sometime the notes that we can't get from text book , so we will miss some important things .
- When we always absent , it will turn off the lecturer's mood on us . Its dangerous for us , student to have a problem with lecturer . When they start ignoring you , you will be in massive problem .



5.  Ask Help

BE SURE TO ALWAYS MEET YOU LECTURER ! ASK EVERYTHING YOU DOESNT UNDERSTAND . IF YOU MISS CLASS , ASK FOR THE NOTES GIVEN . WE ARE HUMAN , HUMAN NOT PERFECT . WE MAY MISS SOMETHING THAT OTHERS KNOW . SO , ASK FOR HELP .










Asking question is important things . When we always meet lecturer , our student and teachers bond will getting stronger . Please make your lecturer your main sources of study , you'll be success .


6. Timetable



TIMETABLE IMPORTANT TO MANAGE YOUR TIME WELL IN STUDY .
IT IS TO PREVENT SOME OF YOUR EVENT CLASH AND CAUSE SOME PROBLEM .














Time managment is important when you are study in university !
Assignment , roleplay , presentation , and all others stuff ...  if you cant manage time properly , you'll be in big problem .


7.  Reading notes




YOU MUST HAVE THE SKILL TO VERIFY IMPORTANT POINT SO THAT YOU CAN BECOME EASIER IN READING BOOKS

MAKE IT INTO A NOTES TO MAKE IT MORE SIMPLER TO UNDERSTAND











If you need to read back all the book you've been studying , i can't really say that you can have so much time for that ! When read , make sure we take the important point and make a note .


THAT IS WHAT I GOT FROM THIS STUDY SKILL SESSION . I WILL UPLOAD MORE STUDY SKILL TOPIC , SO STAY TUNED !
