- Description
-
A Virtual Enterprise is a simulated business that is set up and run by students to prepare them for working in a real business environment. With the guidance of a teacher (“consultant/coordinator”), and real-world business partners, the students determine the nature of their business, its products and services, its management and structure and engage in the daily operations of running a business. Emphasis is placed on using current business software, communications, and the Internet for business transactions. The Virtual Enterprise Program has the added advantage of linking students in a global business network. This simulation takes the teacher outside of the traditional instructional paradigm and then places the students on the front lines of the business world.

Following the "Study Skills Workshop" presentation from Monday, I wanted to follow up with a related topic that should benefit all, if reviewed and applied to your own situation. The topic is "Test Preparation and Test Taking". Through the years I have come to realize that many students don't do well in many classes for two main reasons: 1) Lack of preparation (NOT STUDYING) and 2) Poor test taking skills. Again download and review the information contained in the attached PowerPoint. If you can apply even a few of the tips provided to your own studies, your chances at success should greatly improve. Like all skills, we must constantly work on them in order to improve them. Good luck.
THIS INFORMATION WILL NOT BE COVERED IN AN IN-CLASS PRESENTATION!

The attached file is the PowerPoint Presentation on "Study Skills Workshop". All students should download and review ALL the information contained within these slides. The information presented will be useful not only during your Senior year, but for any classes you may take in the future. Remember that studying is a skill that must first be learned and then practiced over and over in order to produce good results. Like any skill, you must practice at it in order to master it. If you can apply even some of the information to your own personal situation, your chances for success will greatly improve. Good luck and good studying.
