How to be a Successful Student

 

Using a calendar

Planners and Calendars are vital habits for staying organized:

  • Using a calendar or planner is key to staying on top of your classes. Without it, falling behind becomes a real danger. In fact, some students miss tests or quizzes because they didn't even realize those events were coming.

Choose a tool:

  • There are many options, both online and on paper.  Choose one tool and stick with it.

Keep your planner/calendar up to date:

  • Looking at your class schedule, block off time for all your classes and labs
  • Find all assignment, test, and class due dates. Add them to your planner/calendar
  • Add your work schedule
  • Add personal and family commitments
  • Add holidays
  • Add Northwood Tech's academic calendar dates
  • Don't forget to schedule some breaks, time to relax
