Recommendation for Students :- SMART STU DENTS AREN'T ANY " SMARTER" THAN OTHER STUDENTS
Topic :- ( "SMART STUDENTS AREN'T ANY " SMARTER" THAN OTHER STUDENTS" )
We all know, or have known, students who don't seem co be chat much smarter
than anyone else, or to work chat much harder, and yet they consistently excel.
I'm not talking about brainiacs or kids who live at the library. Yet compared with
their classmates who are at 0, smart students learn more in less time, receive higher grades,
and have more fun in the process.
How do they do it?
Motivation is one factor, but smart students are not motivated to work hard
for its own sake, or to learn because it's expected of chem, or to please anyone
else. Smart students mainly try co please themselves.
As for working hard, smart students are always looking for better, more interesting
efficient ways of doing their work. In many respects, smart students are much
lazier than their classmates!
Intelligence is another factor. Now, when I say "intelligence," I don't mean
high IQ. The kind of intelligence necessary in school, as well as in many aspects
of life oucside school, is not some kind of mysterious, inborn ability. Instead, it's
a habit. Smart students are in the habit of asking certain sores of questions. We'll
get to these questions later. In the meantime, rest assured chat if you
have sufficient intellectual capacity to handle your studies.
Academic skills certainly play a part in their success: smart students know
how to read efficiently, get the most ouc of their classes and lectures, understand
and memorize material, prepare for and take tests, and write well. But these are
Not natural abilities. They, too, are skills chat can be mastered.
