Wen Bin Lin Prof: DePaulo PSY: 100 SEC: 026 Behavioral Modification Project I chose to modify my sleeping behavior for my behavior modification project. When I went to college, sleeping was something that I always had a problem with. When I was in high school, I slept seven hours. However, now I’m in my second years of college before this experiment I only got about four or five hours sleeping during my school days. That was not enough to meet an adult’s minimum sleeping hours, which is eight hours per night.
With more breaks about 1-2 weeks long, students wont forget what they learned before the break. The two best plans for when breaks should be given are similar, but just a little different. The 45/15 plan is 45 days of school that will be followed by a 15-day break. The other plan is the 60/20 plan is similar, but instead of 45 days of school there will be 60 followed immediately by a 20-day break. Ron Marcus a
INTRODUCING THE PROBLEM In the last 20 years the United States has dropped from being first in education to a low 7th. The average 15 year old in the United States of America can barely do simple math and apply it to real world applications compared to other schools all over the globe in places like Asia, Europe, and Africa. Clearly other countries are taking new approaches to education that is defeating what the USA is doing. Luckily there is a solution. Ever since school was started the USA has been having a school system where students go to class for a particular length and then get a long summer break.
They explained that they would like a 7 and a half hour day, will be teaching time, 5 and a half of which would be teaching time, 1 hour would be “prep” time, and 1 hour would be “duty-free” time. We countered their initial offer with our initial offer of 8 hours and 45 minutes, 8 hours and 20 minutes of teaching, and 25 minutes of duty free time. The Teachers Association said they just could not accept this offer because they were already overloaded with the amount of work they have to get done in such a short amount of time. The Board then offered an 8 and a half hour day, with 8 hours and 5 minutes of teaching and 25 minutes of duty-free time. After realizing that our bracket offers were becoming smaller and smaller the Teachers’ Association agreed to our offer of 8 and a half hour work day.
* Attendance * I have to call roll for the first couple of days for administrative purposes, but I will not take formal attendance. * You’re adults and you can make your own decisions about coming to class; plus I get that things happen sometimes. * Just know that you should try to be in class as much as possible because: * You will miss notes and about 70% of the exams come from lecture * You also risk missing exercises/daily work, which cannot be made up * Blackboard * Syllabus, handouts, exam reviews, study materials, and your grades will be posted here * Note, Blackboard Grades tries to give a calculated total, but this is inaccurate because I have to drop grades * Everyone familiar with how BB works?

Because they have their own business in school or after-school, they reject to stop their extracurricular instead to do more homework. So how to influence them to change their mind? In other word, how to let their performance same as the “A” students. Probably a lot of parents would say “No!”. Of course they can, the “C” students have same ability as the “A” students.

Why gym class (P.E.) should, and shouldn’t be counted against your GPA. Physical education is required by almost every school in the country, and the grades are counted against the students G.P.A. This causes a problem for some students that are physically unfit, but need to keep up a good grade to maintain a good G.P.A. An easy solution for this would be to take off gym as a class that counts against a students G.P.A, but many schools and universities do not agree to this.
Someday, I didn’t even wanted to go to school because my teachers used to use a strong punishment for students who come to class and they’re not prepared. The most difficult part was for me was pronunciation since my major was “English” and we usually don’t practice English in my country except for “ doctors” and “engineering” I had many words that couldn’t even read neither pronounce it. I think that our minds must be area or gap for choice about how to think in order to understand things well as Ho thoughtful about children’s mind in the article 2. Which of Ho’s ideas
I also have a hard time managing my time during the day I always feel like there are not enough hours in the day. I would like to learn to stop procrastinating so and learn to be able to manage my time and be able to jump right in so to speak and do what need to be done during the time I have to do the tasks. Right now, I work full time forty hours a week but I work night from ten in the evening until six in the morning and then I go to school from eight until noon. So nine time out of ten I am tired after I get out of school so it is hard to concentrate and get my work done with enough time to get some sleep before I have to go to work again that night. It is also difficult for me to manage money right now because I do not make much at this point in my life so if I pay my bills I will not have money for myself which can get really frustrating when you can’t go to the store and buy something to drink or eat when you are want to eat.
