Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answers

to each of the questions.

Successful students often do the followings while studying. First, they have an overview before reading. Next,

they look for important information and pay greater attention to it (which often needs jumping forward or backward to

process information). They also relate important points to one another. Also, they activate and use their prior knowledge.

When they realize that their understanding is not good, they do not wait to change strategies. Last, they can monitor

understanding and take action to correct or “fix up” mistakes in comprehension.

Conversely, students with low academic achievement often demonstrate ineffective study skills. They tend to

assume a passive role in learning and rely on others (e.g., teachers, parents) to monitor their studying. For example, low-

achieving students often do not monitor their understanding of content, they may not be aware of the purpose of studying,

and they show little evidence of looking back, or employing “fix-up” strategies to fix understanding problems.

Students who struggle with learning new information seem to be unaware that they must extent effort beyond

simply reading the content to understand and remember it. Children with learning disabilities do not plan and judge the

quality of their studying. Their studying may be disorganized. Students with learning problems face challenges with

personal organization as well. They often have difficulty keeping track of materials and assignments, following

directions, and completing work on time. Unlike good students who employ a variety of study skills in a flexible yet

purposeful manner, low-achieving students use a restricted range of study skills.

They

cannot explain why good study

strategies are important for learning, and they tend to use the same, often ineffective study approach for all learning tasks,

ignoring task content, structure or difficulty.
