“Time is structured by school officials and parents.” |
“Students manage their own time.” |
“Students can count on teachers to remind them of responsibilities and to guide them in setting priorities.” |
“Students balance responsibilities and set priorities on their own.” |
“Reading is often re-taught in class; listening in class is sometimes enough.” |
“Students are assigned substantial amounts of reading and writing which may not be directly addressed in class, but still show up in tests.” |
“Teachers often write information on the board as a summary of notes.” |
“Professors may lecture nonstop, expecting students to identify the important points in their notes. Good notes are a must.” |
