human essential skills.

a suggestion from me ?
1. Go to lecture or watch webcast
2. Retain the information taught in class
3. Go to lab and on the computer, you’ll be able to apply what you learn
4. Go to disc and tackle the questions without the need of a computer
5. Refresh the material over the weekend
6. Take a quiz on what you need to know
Thank you :)
