Smith halL I Reed Gives Students Helpful Pre-Final Examination Hints The student's favorite pre-final study habit . . . cramming. In commenting on this study habit, Woodrow W. Reed, Junior Division guidance counselor, said, "Cramming helps to reduce feel ings of guilt but is usually inef fective motion precipitated by tension." The reason many students cram! for exam, is relatively simpie they don't know bow to study for final exams. Reed has given some helnful hints on the fine art of studying for final exams. Some of the principles are: 1. Spread out the review. Don't try cramming all the in formation into your bead one or two days before the exam. 2. The sooner yon start re viewing, the better. The old saying that "he who hesitates is lost," defintely applies to finals. 3. Be selective in your re viewing. Try to concentrate on it happened at nu...

Try to predict the questions that nill be asked in the test Reed said that pre-testing should be an important part of each student's study program. He advised, "Try to make up a final exam similar to the one that yon think may be pre sented." Reed said that pre-testing gives the student, the opportunity to bei selective in the material. He added that "it also gives the student ex jperience in a test situation where i there is unlikely to be tension." "A person who pre-tests him-i self," Reed added, "is less anxious!

The teacher rating program is a culmination of the research and study of evaluation systems used at various colleges and universities in the nation. The evaluation system selected by this committee to be used at the University is the Purdue univer sity evaluation system. The rating program, as applied to University faculty members, will be: 1. Completely voluntary on the part of the individual instructor and 2. Results of each rating by students will be made available only to the instructor evaluated. According to Dr. Ephriam Hix- ison, wno neipea conduct tne re I search on the system, "Teachers are always being evaluated other faculty members and dents, so whv not make this eval - 'uation official? The system has! value and if, when made offi- rial, it will make students think, : it is important and is good busi- 'ness for the school and the stu - dents. "There is one serious draw back to the plan: no one but the individual instructor sees the evaluation. The instructors who ask to use the system ob viously plan to use it to benefit the course. Only those instruc tors who are afraid to be criti cized won't ask to use the eval- natinn cvictem." j Another points of view pressed by Frank E. Henzlik, dean visiting city campus.

In other words, be advised, "take the studies fn smai ldoses." Mr. Reed also said that students should do their memorizing before going to bed and their problem jsoiving in the morning. Though students may study con .sciensiously before the final ex- lams, many of them find that in the actual test situation, thev are overly nervous and tense. Mr. Reed gives some points that' have proven helpful in the actual test situation. They are: 1. Don't write a thing during the first ten minutes of the test In other words, use your head instead of your pencil for the first ten minutes. 2. Read all the questions be fore attempting to answer any of them. This applies to all tests ... essay, multiple choice and true-false. 3.

The only real choice the teacher has is whether he wants to know what these ratings are.

It will be effective or not if the in-stu-structor takes the comments as sincere and actually tries to improve 'what students think is wrone.

Sometimes the teachers just don't know what they are (doing wrong so that the student would get the best benefits from the jclass. Jack Davis, junior, Teachers College: Yes, I think it would be jfine. Sometimes the older teachers need to keep up with the current :students rather than teach the class the way they did 10 years ago. j Mitzi Marqueson, freshman, Arts and Sciences: I think the teach is ex- ers should be glad to know what the students think and will take their comments sincerely.
