My ideal instructor/professor would be someone who you can relate to about things, and who doesn't go so fast that you can't understand them. Who would also let you turn in things late if you have a good reason why you can't turn it in on time. They just have to be someone that isn't so uptight about everything.
Ø “I knew it when I studied it, but I forgot it on the test.” How can students study differently to prevent this from happening?
When i study for a quiz or test and I think I know it, then I get to taking it and I forget what I studied. When other people quiz me i think i retain it better because when i don't know it i can't just look at my notebook real quick. I have to try and figure it out even if i get frustrated. And i think that when it comes to taking tests people get nervous so they can't think straight, so that probably has a big part to it to.
Ø How do you study for quizzes/tests?
When i study for quizzes or tests, i usually read over my notes over and over so that i can memorize them. I haven't really figured out any other ways that would help me study for quizzes or tests yet.
Ø What do you have trouble with on quizzes/tests?
When i take a test i'll sometimes drift off and think about other things, then i read the question about 5 times and still not understand what it is asking. Also if i don't know the material really well, then i'll sit and contemplate what answer i should put down.
*Please go to the website listed below, which is a "Letter to McDonald's" from a former employee. Read it and write at least a paragraph reaction on your Blog site.
I think that this person has a very good point in this letter. It isn't fair to people when the managers are letting some people come in late and do whatever they want or even when they don't show up time after time, they don't even get a warning. If that was happening to me, i would come in late or not come in at all. Then maybe they will realize that they can't keep letting people do that because one day no one is going to show up, then what are they going to do. Work places need to be fair, because if they're not, they are going to end up not having any workers at all. The part about the spatula is disgusting, dropping it on the floor and only wiping it off. That makes me not want to eat at a fast food restaurant again.

Other people quizzing you is a great method of studying. I know what you mean about reading a question over 5x and not getting it, happens to the best of us. At least you realize what you need to work hardest on!
Right, McD's is banking on the fact that if a disgruntled worker quits or doesn't show up, they can always just hire another min. wage teenager to replace them with "zero training."
Great job!
