Week-Four-Instructor-Guidance-writing-homework-help
Prepare: As discussed in Chapter 4 and the Week Four Instructor Guidance, intentional learning requires focus, commitment, time management, and self-regulation of learning behaviors. In addition to general study habits, developing sophisticated personal learning strategies will help you own and control your learning behaviors. Return to the chapter and critically read the scenarios of Dan, Cassie, and Nia in Section 4.2, The Importance of Self-Regulation and Metacognition in Section 4.3, and the concept of FIT: forge, intensify, and tether in Section 4.4. Note how Dan, Cassie, and Nia all lack an understanding of how to be mindful, intentional learners. Their study habits are riddled with common issues, ranging from self-doubt, fear of not doing things right, to overconfidence. |

Reflect: Carefully review Worksheet 4.1 in Section 4.1. Reflect on your own internal and external success factors and on your academic performance over the past three weeks. Analyze how a lack of self-regulation can hinder academic success and how, conversely, being intentional can lead to increased success and deeper learning. Your honest evaluation begins the process of developing personalized learning strategies and allows you to examine your readiness to take the next steps toward becoming an intentional learner. |
