THIS week, we focus on students maintaining their study.
Although you will feel relieved after your final exam, which is one of the most challenging parts of the class, your work doesn’t stop there. You will have to keep your skills and knowledge updated and fresh so that you can make use of it later on. Whether you’ve just studied accounting skills for your business management degree, details of kings and empires for your graduate thesis in history, or computer programming methods for a computer science course, keeping up with your studies will help you retain that knowledge so that you can apply it in other courses and in your career. After the exam Save your textbooks – Unfortunately, the cost of textbooks makes it hard to hold on to them. However, key reference manuals will be useful to you in the future and you should not sell them back if you expect to stay in the field. In addition, many courses, particularly in literature, requires inexpensive copies of the texts being studied, which may be worth more if you keep them handy than the small sum you would get for resale. Hold on to your notebooks – Most courses will leave you with a collection of class notes, lecture notes and handouts, which may be more valuable than the textbook, since these notes are the only record of what your professors emphasised during class. This may be less important if you took electives that don’t have direct bearing on further courses, but many courses — particularly when you are pursuing a major in a subject or a graduate degree — build on other courses. Back up your data – Backing up data is important for any digital media that you recorded during your courses, from tape-recordings to videos of lectures your instructor provided. If you’re working in digital media, graphic design or some other artistic field featuring a lot of digitally based work, this is even more important, as you will likely need to assemble a portfolio either to pursue graduate study or to use as your resume for artistic jobs. Next semester and next year
