Study Skills
For students to have an advantage in this global economy, we must teach them how to learn strategically: be organized, learn efficiently, and make intelligent critical decisions. Recent studies have provided the following statistics’:
30% = Number of students dropping out of High School in the United States
40% =Number of college students who have taken at least one remedial course in college.
50% = Number of Students who never complete a Degree
66% = Number of High School honor students who fall behind in college
There is some good news however!
Ohio State University published a study in 2009 showing the impact study skills can have on college graduation rates. According to the study:
45% = the increased likelihood that struggling High school student will graduate from college if they take a study skills class. Source
600% = the increased likelihood that “average� high school students will graduate from college if they take a study skills class. Source
