Difference

High School

|
Grades are made up of
|
frequent tests and
|
homework, and you may be
|
able to bring up a low initial
|
grade by completing smaller
|
assignments and bonuses.
|
Grades are often made up
|
of fewer assignments,
|
and initial low grades may
|
keep you from earning
|
high course grades at the
|
end of the semester.
|
You will need to be prepared to
|
earn high grades on all
|
assignments because you may
|
not have the opportunity to
|
make up for lost ground.
|
Learning is often done in
|
class with the teacher
|
guiding the process, offering
|
multiple ways to learn
|
material and frequent
|
quizzes to ensure that
|
learning is occurring.
|
Learning happens mostly
|
outside of class and on
|
your own. Faculty are
|
responsible for assigning
|
material and covering the
|
most essential ideas; you
|
are responsible for
|
tracking and monitoring
|
your learning progress.
|
You will need to practice
|
effective learning strategies on
|
your own to ensure that you are
|
mastering material at the
|
appropriate pace.

Your teachers, parents, and a
|
counselor are responsible for
|
identifying your need for
|
help and for creating a plan
|
for you to get help with
|
coursework if you need it.
|
Extra assistance is usually
|
reserved for students who
|
have an official diagnosis or
|
need.
|
You will most likely need
|
help to complete all your
|
courses successfully even
|
if you did not need extra
|
help in high school. You
|
will be responsible for
|
identifying that you need
|
it, accessing the
|
resources, and using
|
them.
