To show them the opportunities they'll have in life if they attend an elite college. This will help because elite colleges give lots of importance to the curriculum of the student, specially AP courses. Telling them the opportunities they might achieve in an Ivy or Elite college, might help.

You can:\n1. Learn at your desired pace - slow or fast\n2. Get information about the subject that is updated more frequently\n3. Participate in discussions and interation with participants belonging to wider range of area, culture and age group.\n\nAlso,\n\n4. Interactive/streaming video tutorials may be played back saveral times and their retention is far greater.\n5. You have sufficient time and opportunity to look for other related material on the Internet and elsewhere.\n6. Variety of course combinations may be made.\n7. You (may) become more disciplined and organized.

you cant force soemone who is paying to take a course to go to class.  \n\nmake your class as interesting as possible, or gear it so that if you miss class you cant pass,\n\nI had a professo who rarely taught out of teh text, making only 30 % of pour grade based on textbook information 60 % was based on his lectures.  I only missed class when i had the flu...and normally i miss as many as im allotted before being dropped.

Study 2 hours at a time. Don't cram all at once. Spread your education goals out so you have a reasonable timeframe to complete each task without undue pressure.

Pay attention in class!  This is the most important thing you can do.  Ask questions when you don't understand something.  Also, review your notes everyday.  (I mean everyday.)  If you find something you have a question on, make a note of it and ask about it. Study groups may help you.  If so, ask around class and see if anyone is interested in joining you. Getting a 4.0, for most people, takes a lot of dedication.  Good luck.

MAke your subject as graphic as possible...with diagrams, films,whatever...then involve them in answering questions...tell them to ask whatever that comes to their mind even in allied fields...tell them to be fearless in asking as well as answering...if they had all the answers they wouldnt be students...

1. Have a regular time and location to study.\n\n2. Get ahold of upcoming lessons and read ahead. *The reason for this is important. If you study ahead - when you do take the subject in class it is a review for you. You'll actually be ahead of the class when preparing for your exam.\n\n3. Work with someone who can help you - not distract you. * This is a mastermind technique you'll use in the business world. Get use to it.\n\n4. No TV. ( a little quiet background music is acceptable)\n\n5. Learn memory techniques. Do not rely on rote memory. * Use ridiculous association for subjects where you have alot of facts to remember. Your mind is like a filing cabinet. If you don't have a filing system you won't know how to retrieve the knowledge when you need it.\n\n6. Use colored post its to mark , "must knows, could knows, and should knows. Remember - most of your hard cover books are filler. Focus on what your teacher wants you to know.\n\n7. Eating before study causes blood to go from the brain to the stomach. Watch when you eat.\n\n8. Get plenty of rest. Don't party on school nights.\n\n9. Do "all your assignments!" "Write all your tests!" - falling behind because of missed assignments or classes will make studying difficult. If you have to miss a class - have someone provide you with notes and <ask> the teacher if you're confused. DO NOT FALL BEHIND!!!! Knowing your subject is like building a house. If you miss information your foundation will be weak and your house will not hold up! That's why students who miss class have a bad time of it.\n\n10. Set a goal for yourself in each subject you take and shoot high. That is to say...shoot for an A and you'll most likely get a B. Write your goal in the present tense - I.e. It is Jun 2007 and I have completed Math 30 with an A plus. (Describe the reaction of your teacher/parents/friends and how good you feel about achieving your goal. "Remember - if a goal doesn't have a time limit set on it - your goal is just a dream!"\n\n11. Never get into a tiff with your teacher - show genuine interest and you'll see a higher grade.\n\n12. Keep good notes - no...excellent notes. Notes that refer back to your text book and highlight the must knows! Have a table of contents.

Try to get as many AP courses as possible. Or at least the most that you can handle. Also, try to take extra curricular classes but make sure that there is a way you can earn college credits for them. Big things like a sport or band and drill will help you out. But AP courses count as college courses so that's a big help already.

You ask yourself what do you want the learners to be able to do after the end of the course. These are major objectives. For example, you want them to be able to access Yahoo Answers in an area of their expertise and to answer at least one question that receives a "best answer" rating. This objective includes a performance expectation (doing the task), conditions (in their area of expertise), and criterion for success (getting a best answer).\n\nThis would be an end result that is measurable, and describes the outcomes in terms of what students should do.\n\nEnabling objectives (called by various names) might be identified to help students reach the terminal objectives. E.g., demonstrate that they can access the site; log in successfully; locate questions in a topic known to the students; answer questions; determine when they have a best answer; etc.\n\nThe trick is to distinguish between lower-level and terminal objectives, so check some of the literature to better understand this.\n\nHope this helps.

The best and most overlooked way to improve classroom education of any kind is to introduce the use of boardgames. I have taught for over ten years all over the world, and only when I use boardgames do students voluntarily insist on extending their classes for two, three, even four hours. Not only that but they then show the most rapid improvement.\nCheck out the following websites for some useful background info.\n\nhttp://www.rpg.net/sites/edu/1-1.html\n\nhttp://www.rpg.net/sites/edu/1-2.html\n\nhttp://subscriptions.fasfind.com/wwwtools/m/208.cfm\n\nhttp://www.gama.org/uploads/nS/XX/nSXX7lbqv9r-V1glq3UvQg/GinEBrochure1.pdf\n\nGive it a try and you will be amazed. At least you will be helping to break the monopoly that the big textbook publishers have over the education industry.

AP--Advanced Placement--was developed as a way to get bright and motivated high school students more challenging work. Taking the AP classes supposedly gives kids more academic work, greater challenges, and extends learning past the typical high school class. If you take the AP exams--standardized examinations--and get above a certain score then colleges accept this as "credits" toward college subjects. Its not uncommon for students to come to college with 3-12 AP credits that let them skip introductory level courses in college.
