Successful students often do the followings while studying. First they have an overview before reading. Next, they look for important information and pay greater attention to it (which often needs jumping forward or backward to process information). They also relate important points to one another. Also, they activate and use their prior knowledge. When they realize that their understanding is not good, they do not wait to change strategies. Last, they can monitor understanding and take action to correct or “ fix-up” mistakes in comprehension.
Conversely, students with low academic achievement often demonstrate ineffective study skills. They tend to assume a passive role in learning and rely on others(e.g, teachers, parents) to monitor their studying. For example, low-achieving students often do not monitor their understanding of content, they may not be aware of the purpose of studying, and their show little evidence of looking back, or employing “fix-up” strategies to fix understanding problems. Students who struggle with learning new information seem to be unaware that they must extent beyond simply reading the content to understand and remember it. Children with learning disabilities do not plan and judge the quality off their studying. Their studying may be disorganized. Students with learning problems face challenges with personal organization as well. They often have difficulty keeping track of materials and assignments, following directions, and completing work on time. Unlike good student who employ a variety of study skills in a flexible yet purposeful manner, low-achieving students use a restricted range of skills. They can not explain why good study strategies are important for learning, and they tend to use the same, often ineffective, study approach for all learning tasks, ignoring task content, structure of difficulty.

Tạm dịch: Không giống như học sinh có thành tích tốt sử dụng nhiều kỹ năng học tập khác nhau một cách linh hoạt nhưng theo một cách có chủ đích, học sinh có thành tích thấp chỉ sử dụng một số kỹ năng giới hạn. Họ không thể giải thích tại sao các chiến lược học tập tốt rất quan trọng cho việc học
Đáp án C
Dich bài
Những học sinh có kết quả tốt thường làm những điều sau trong khi học. Đầu tiên họ có một cái nhìn tổng quan trước khi đọc. Tiếp theo, họ tìm kiếm thông tin quan trọng và chú ý nhiều hơn tới nó (thường cần nhảy về phía trước hoặc ngược lại để xử lý thông tin). Họ cũng liên hệ những điểm quan trọng với nhau. Ngoài ra, họ nhớ lại và sử dụng kiến thức trước đó của họ.Khi họ nhận ra rằng việc tiếp thu bài của họ không tốt, họ không chờ đợi để thay đổi chiến lược học tập. Cuối cùng, họ có thể theo dõi sự tiếp thu của mình và hành động để sửa lỗi hoặc sửa lỗi trong trong nhận thức của họ.
Ngược lại, học sinh với thành tích học tập thấp thường thể hiện những kỹ năng học tập không hiệu quả. Họ thường có vai trò thụ động trong việc học và dựa vào người khác (ví dụ: giáo viên, phụ huynh) để theo dõi việc học của họ. Ví dụ, học sinh có thành tích thấp thường không thể tự theo dõi sự tiếp thu của họ về nội dung, họ có thể không nhận thức được mục đích học tập, và họ có ít dấu hiệu về việc nhìn lại bài hoặc sử dụng các chiến lược "sửa chữa" để khắc phục các vấn đề về việc hiểu bài.
Các học sinh gặp khó khăn trong việc học thông tin mới dường như không ý thức rằng họ phải làm nhiều thứ hơn nữa ngoài việc chỉ cần đọc nội dung để hiểu và ghi nhớ nó. Những đứa trẻ không có khả năng học không thể kế hoạch và tự đánh giá chất lượng việc học của mình. Việc học tập của họ có thể rất thiếu tổ chức. Những sinh viên có vấn đề về học tập cũng phải đối mặt với những thách thức với việc tổ chức cuộc sống cá nhân. Họ thường gặp khó khăn trong việc theo dõi tài liệu và bài tập, làm theo chỉ dẫn, và hoàn thành công việc đúng giờ.Không giống như học sinh có thành tích tốt sử dụng nhiều kỹ năng học tập khác nhau một cách linh hoạt nhưng theo một cách có chủ đích, học sinh có thành tích thấp chỉ sử dụng một số kỹ năng giới hạn. Họ không thể giải thích tại sao các chiến lược học tập tốt rất quan trọng cho việc học, và họ có khuynh hướng sử dụng phương pháp tương tự nhưng không hiệu quả cho tất cả các nhiệm vụ học tập, bỏ qua nội dung công việc, cấu trúc khó khăn.

Just as you designate and separate your physical workspace, you should be clear about when you’re working and when you’re not. You’ll get your best work done and be most ready to transition back to the office if you stick with your regular hours. Plus, if your role is collaborative, being on the same schedule as your coworkers makes everything much easier.
“The biggest difference between working from home and working in the office is that you are in charge of your environment and have to treat yourself like an employee,” Yurovsky says. This means holding yourself accountable, but also recognizing when enough is enough, just as a good manager might. “If you feel yourself extending your work hours because you are not doing anything in the evening...tell yourself it’s time to put work away, recharge, and start tomorrow with a fresh mind. The work will be there in the morning.”
If you live with other people, this separation is even more critical. Communicate with the people whom you live with to establish boundaries so you can cut down on distractions during the workday—and then disconnect and give the people you care about your full attention. Having a separate time and space to work will allow you to be more present in your home life.
