Introduction:

Congratulations Louisian STAR, you’ve made it this far! Challenge yourself to do better
each time and to improve yourself with each step. If you give it your all, your goals will be
achieved.

The wise saying "experience is the best teacher" may be one you've heard before. You
have a lot of experiences to think back on as each year of your life begins. You might not like
everything that occurs to you at school or in your community, particularly things that cause you
pain, trouble, or harm, but you must deal with these things in a good way.

You must keep in mind that you cannot control the course of events, particularly those
that can try your young learner's patience, determination, and drive. It's important to keep in
mind that experiences, whether at school or in your community, will provide you with the
chance to learn lessons that you may apply to better yourself and others. Your personal
experiences—both good and bad—along with your coping mechanisms might be your stepping
stones to academic success.

You will come to understand that those things are only a part of life as you become older and
learn how to become a successful and harmonious member of society.

Always keep in mind …

You own wealth of distinctive experiences from your time spent learning and
participating in your community. Positive or negative, each encounter you have had a significant
impact on your life. People occasionally overvalue happy experiences while undervaluing
unfavorable ones. You won't be able to turn life's difficult challenges into learning opportunities

without these negative encounters. These educational opportunities are crucial to your
academic progress.

A wise learner may see and accept that both happy and negative experiences are
inevitable in life. He or she is a person who can use these experiences to build on the past, get
better, and move on.

Here are the characteristics of a wise learner:

Seeks knowledge and skill outside the box. Knowing that learning from others can enhance
development, a smart learner is eager to explore new experiences, cultures, and perspectives.
Even in the face of difficulties and challenges, he or she is adaptive and continues to learn.

Utilizes what he or she learns. Application without learning is like a plant without growth. A wise
student slowly processes the information given to him or her because he or she understands
that learning only becomes meaningful when it is applied successfully in situations encountered
in daily life.

Contemplates global events and concerns, and ponders how he or she can be part of the
solution. A wise student understands that significant issues like inequality, unrest, and climate
change require everyone's involvement.

Communicates with the world outside his or her window. A wise learner recognizes that
interactions with others can teach them a lot. He or she goes beyond their comfort zone
because they understand that distance should not be a barrier to learning.

Engages with others with the use of appropriate responses. The mark of a successful learner,
according to a wise student, is demonstrating empathy, extending compassion, and modeling
maturity. Because learning includes language and complexity that extends beyond the confines
of a book or a classroom, in addition to numbers, facts, and historical dates.

Sees technology and modern advances and uses them as an advantage to further his or her
learning. A smart learner uses technology to collaborate with others, share ideas, and learn
things they previously weren't aware of.

Shapes his or her mind to be open-minded and receptive to a different perspective, beliefs, and
ideas. A wise learner is devoid of bias and discrimination. He or she puts learning first and
foremost. He or she is aware that to succeed academically, one must be creative and imaginative
without compromising one's moral principles.

With all these helpful tips provided, you won't be prevented from achieving academic
achievement by difficult situations in school and the community. You are progressing toward
being a wise student on your own.
