Occupational Development Program

Active participation is a plus when it comes to class discussions. Being prepared can ease any anxiety you may have about speaking in class. Take advantage of the chance to express your opinions and test your ideas by following these guidelines.

• Be prepared by completing any assigned readings before class. Think about the points that may be discussed in class.
• Take notes as you read. Underline and highlight the main ideas and names of important people along with key terms and their meanings.
• Develop an outline and arrange ideas according to their importance.
• Write a brief summary of only the main points using your own words.
• Draw a diagram of the material using any shapes you want.
