The Smart Student's Credo

(kutipan dari buku : What Smart Students Know ; maximum grades, optimum learning, minimum time karya Adam Robinson, cofounder of The Princeton Review)

Consciously or unconsciously, share 12 beliefs or principles about school and the learning process. Study list this :
1. Nobody can teach you as well as you can teach yourself.
2. Merely listening to your teachers and completing their assignments is never enough.
3. Not everything you are aasigned to read or asked to do is equally important.
4. Grades are just subjective opinions.
5. Making mistakes (and occasionally appearing foolish) is the price you pay for learning and improving.
6. The point of question is to get you to think -not simply to answer it.
7. You are in school to learn to think for yourself, not to repeat what your textbooks and teachers tell you.
8. Subjects do not always seem interesting and relevant, but being actively engaged in learning them is better than being passively bored and not learning them.
9. Few things are as potentially difficult, frustating or frightening as genuine learning, yet nothing is so rewarding and empowering.
10. How well you do in school reflects your attitude and tour method, not your ability.
11. If you are doing it for grades or for the approval of others, you are missing the satisfactions of the process and putting your self-esteem at the mercy of things outside your control.
12. School is a game, but it's a very important game
