Armando nunez | College Readiness | What Is College Readiness | | Armando Nunez | 10/1/2011 | :) | Armando Nunez 10 - 1 – 11 Cristo Rey Brooklyn SB College Readiness The Purpose of this paper is to show Armando goals in the four facets of college readiness: contextual skills and awareness, academic behavior, and key content, and key cognitive strategies. College readiness can be described as how ready you are to start and succeed in college and if you have the thinking skills and the academic behavior needed for college. Key cognitive strategy is a term used to describe the intelligent behavior a student needs to be successful in college like David T. Conley said “Understanding and mastering key content knowledge is achieved through the exercise of broader cognitive skills embodied within the key cognitive strategies”. Academic behavior is one of the facets that pay more attention on self-monitoring and things you can to do make yourself better and another great quote to better describe academic behavior from David T. Conley is “Key academic behaviors consist largely of self-monitoring and study skills “. Key Content is separated into different sections including Intellectual openness, inquisitiveness, reasoning, argumentation and proof, interpretation, precision and accuracy, and problem solving.
