EDUCATION

By: Carl Neumann Educational achievement requires certain characteristics and abilities. Clarke University advises students to develop a specific set of competencies in order to develop an internal framework conducive to success. I will briefly discuss a few of the skills necessary to succeed in high school, college, or university. TIME MANAGEMENT Time management requires students to create and test a weekly schedule based on the events that occur during the week in order to assess and evaluate whether they use their time appropriately for each event.

STUDY SKILLS Another critical skill is determining the most effective method of study for you. High school and college education require quite different study approaches. It is critical to discover what works for you. You might begin by conducting research on various study methods and selecting the one that is most appropriate for you.

PROBLEM-SOLVING This is a necessary skill at any level of education. The capacity to handle obstacles and come up with innovative yet practical solutions could make all the difference. Students must be able to handle a problem calmly and rationally in all facets of their lives, not just in school.

RESPONSIBILITY In contrast to school, lecturers and other staff do not take responsibility for students who skip lectures, practical assessments, or exams, as the student is responsible for ensuring their attendance. Being responsible is a critical characteristic that all students must possess. It demonstrates that they can be relied upon to carry out instructions without fail.
