Why You Should Apply for Scholarships (Year-Round)

Whether you’re a high school student preparing for the future, a parent planning for your child’s
education, or you’re already enrolled in college, you’re likely familiar with scholarships. Often an
overlooked financial resource, scholarships can help pay for some (or all) of the cost of attendance. Not
all students apply for scholarships, despite the fact they can help with college expenses.

Whether you’re enjoying your summer break from school, or you’re just getting ready to start a new
semester, it’s always a good time to apply for both local and national scholarships.

No matter what time of year, there are many benefits to applying for scholarships year-round including:

Taking Notes: Paper vs. Laptops vs. Apps

Written by Christine Rees

Show of hands, how many of you use laptops to take notes in class? Do you need to take notes on your
laptop or can you use a pen and paper? Maybe you use a voice-recording app that’s been pre-approved
by your teacher/professor or you share notes with friends. Is there a real difference between these
methods of taking notes?

Um, yes!

So, let’s break these down to help you examine which method is best suited for you:
Paper

throwing paper, giphy

Good, old-fashioned pen and paper. I prefer this method because instead of copying everything my
professor says word-for-word, I can think about the information, digest it, and then write it in my own
words. This process helps me remember what I am learning. And I can always transfer those notes to my
computer later.

Pros:

Writing on paper provides a stronger conceptual understanding of what is being learned. While it may
be a slower process, and students can’t write every single word, it forces the brain to engage in some
heavy ‘mental lifting’ as research explained by Scientific American says. In doing so, students
comprehend and retain information better. Overall, “those who wrote out their notes by hand had a
stronger conceptual understanding and were more successful in applying and integrating the material
than those who took notes with their laptops.”

Cons:

Unfortunately, using paper requires notebooks, binders, a pencil case, and way more backpack space
than a laptop does. So, not only will you be doing some heavy mental lifting, but you’ll also be using
your muscles to carry the extra weight in your bag.

Laptop

Jim Carrey taking notes

Laptops make typing notes easy and efficient, especially if you grew up learning to type like I did. It’s
second-nature; so-much-so that I’m not even looking at the keyboard while I type this part of the article.

Pros:
A laptop carries more information for your classes and takes up less space in your bag. Organizing notes
and keeping everything tidy is easy with a few clicks. Folders can be set up within another folder, using
dates and subject names to make finding what you need completely painless! You can even go back and
reformat or add to those notes later.

Typed notes make using websites like Quizlet trouble-free so you can jump into studying faster! Laptops
also allow us to use programs such as Google Drive that make accessing files and sharing group projects
simple and quick. We even gain access to PowerPoint, so we can open the lectures on our screen and
take notes in the Notes Section.

Cons:

There are plenty of distractions to get lost in that affect our concentration. Having access to the internet
can be a dangerous game when you’re trying to participate and learn in class.

Since typing is second-nature by now, typing notes is basically a mindless activity. This means that while
you’re taking notes during a lecture, you might not be absorbing the lesson as well as you would be if
you were writing on paper. Which may add difficulty in remembering the material later!

Apps

Google falling

Apps can be specific to a program, which can make recording information easier. For example, Paper can
make sketching on your iPhone or iPad possible. Milanote is for designers and visual thinkers. Microsoft
OneNote is a general note-taking app that can be used on iOS, Android, macOS, web, and windows.
Some of us prefer not to type our notes, but listen to the lecture instead, so why not try a voice-
recording app? There are so many apps available!

Pros:

These apps can be useful for specific programs. They can transform the information into visuals and
make collaborating on group projects or sharing notes with classmates simple. Have you ever wondered
if there was an app for note sharing? There is! Microsoft’s OneNote serves its users by allowing them to
share information with multiple users. Users can work together in “digital notebooks” with unique
organizational formats and features that make retrieving data an effortless experience—only one of the
many cool things apps can do that makes taking notes easier!

Cons:

Not all apps are the same. While one may be perfect for one program, it may not work for others. As a
result, you may be required to learn the operations of multiple apps. Apps need to be updated to
continue functioning properly, and sometimes there is a cost for purchasing an app that we’re uncertain
will work. So, you may be taking a gamble on it.

Each method of taking notes has pros and cons.

Both the program you’re in and how you process information will determine the best approach for
recording what you’re learning. So, get to it!

A World of Possibilities: Student Works Success Stories

Written by Sofia Martimianakis

The Student Works Management Program gives students a chance to try entrepreneurship within a
highly supportive environment. Participants learn to manage all aspects of a business from hiring, to
project management, marketing, sales, and operations. Perhaps even more valuable, the Student Works
program exposes students to a network of talented mentors who empower them with the knowledge
and mindset to make their business dreams a reality. Many graduates of the Student Works
Management Program have gone on to do incredible things within the business community. Prepare to
be inspired by Matt, James and Adel, a couple of 20 year olds who took the leap and put in the hard
work to make their dreams a reality.

Matt Andrews

Matt Andrews manages a multimillion-dollar portfolio as an Acquisition and Assets Manager.

During his first year of undergraduate studies was when Matt heard about the Student Works
Management Program. He was drawn to the challenge and went on to become one of the program’s
highest performers. Matt saw it as a big opportunity for a student to have the chance to earn $15,000 in
one summer. The learning curve was steep at first, but Matt rose to the challenge and gained expertise
in every aspect of running a business. In his second summer in the program, he broke records at Student
Works and was able to run an even more successful business while working fewer hours than the
summer before.
Matt left school early to pursue entrepreneurship full-time. His initial investment partners were his
parents. The equity from three properties Matt purchased with his parent’s investment capital helped
launch his business. Now, at the age of 25, Matt manages over 2 million dollars in properties. He
attributes his success to the strong foundational skills he developed during the Management Program as
well as the network he met through Student Works. Matt believes success in business comes from the
relationships you make. The network of talented individuals at Student Works kept Matt motivated to
pursue his goals and gave him the opportunity to team up with the right people along the way.

>>> Click here to listen to Matt’s interview on the Leaders of Tomorrow podcast.

James Svetec

James Svetec runs an online multimillion-dollar business while travelling the world.

In his early twenties, James is already living the life so many people dream of experiencing. He runs a
successful business while being able to work from anywhere in the world. As a teenager, James felt high
school didn’t equip him with a real-world concept of how his core interests aligned with potential
careers. While completing the Student Works Management Program, he gained the mindset and
persuasion skills necessary to succeed in entrepreneurship. The coaching James received from his
Student Works District Manager helped him mitigate the stress that comes with launching a business.
James considers persuasion skills to be invaluable to his success. Someone may have a great idea, but
along the way, they’ll need to communicate the values of their idea and convince people that their
product or service will achieve results.

From his time with Student Works, James realized he really enjoyed coaching and training. His current
business is an online training program that helps clients turn their homes or investment properties into
profitable Airbnb listings. James notes, there is a big difference between someone wanting a successful
outcome and someone who is willing to do the work. Being able to put in the necessary time and effort
to achieve success goes hand in hand with having a proactive mindset. James offers the following
example: Instead of complaining that you deal with too many unpleasant clients, see what you can do to
improve their customer experience and ease their frustrations. This type of shift in mindset can help you
adapt to challenges and reach your goals.

>>> Click here to listen to James’ interview on the Leaders of Tomorrow Podcast.

Adel Jawhrey

Adel Jawhary founded a roofing business with revenues exceeding $6.5 million in 2018.

At the young age of 25, Adel is being recognized as the CEO of one of Canada’s fastest growing firms.
Through Student Works, Adel gained much more than foundational business skills, he discovered what
he was capable of achieving. Surrounded by ambitious young entrepreneurs in the Student Works
Management Program, Adel began to see himself as a leader and was inspired to surpass his initial goals.
The decision to do the program a second time was instrumental for Adel who pushed himself to new
limits.

Starting a business comes with many challenges, but strong ambition helped Adel overcome the hurdles.
He believes the biggest challenge most people face is the fear of failure. They may have a great idea and
be excited by all the potential possibilities but after a few days, doubt starts to creep in with the risks
and potential challenges. Adel explained that he knew he needed to believe in himself and his idea, so
he removed failure as an option. He embraced a positive mindset and believed he had the skills and
drive to make his dreams a reality; Adel chose to see a world of possibilities.

6 Active Reading Strategies That Will Keep You On Track

Written by Christine Rees•Photo by Priscilla Du Preez

How can you be active while reading? I suppose you could take your textbook to the gym (I love dad
jokes…), but that’s not exactly what I had in mind for this article. When I refer to active reading, I’m
talking about your brain being actively engaged with what you are reading.

If you’re getting distracted by technology, then find a way to combat it so you don’t lose focus. How
many times have you jumped into a textbook without being totally interested in the content? Has this
caused you to read and then re-read and then re-re-read the same paragraph because you can’t
remember one sentence?

This has happened to me more often than I’d like to admit (okay, way more often), but reading without
being aware of what you’re learning is pointless. It’s important to stay focused on the content because it
will save you loads of time later. Active reading is a necessity while studying.

Strategies for active reading include:

Preliminary Outline

If you know that this reading will be dense, complex, maybe a little boring, and/or difficult to process,
then take a moment to scan through the pages to outline headings/subheadings on a separate piece of
paper. If the headers aren’t helpful, or there aren’t any, look at the transitional sentences for clues.
Basically, you’re creating an outline of what you are about to read so your brain can “plug” in the
information as you go. This helps to keep everything in the right order.

Clarify

Find the thesis or main idea. As your educational level increases, so does the complexity of what you’re
learning. Suddenly, the thesis enjoys hiding in the second or third paragraph… maybe even somewhere
on the second page. Take a moment to find it so you have a basic understanding of what the rest of the
text will try to prove.

Identify vocabulary you are unfamiliar with and search up their meanings. We’re all guilty of skimming
over words we vaguely understand instead of looking them up. It’s better to take a second to clarify the
entire sentence rather than assume part of it. What do people say about assuming, again? That it makes
an a-s-s out of you and me.

Well, there you go.

Once and a while, stop to verify that you understand the text. Then make an educated guess about what
information will turn up next based on what you’ve read. Read on to determine whether or not your
prediction is correct. This keeps you invested in the material.
Question

Write questions in the margins and answer them when you’ve finished the reading. This will keep you
actively engaged as you search for the solution. In addition, try to determine what motivated the author
to write this. Why are you reading this book? Consider asking preliminary questions that will stimulate
your brain to discover the answers.

Visualize

Visualize what the author is telling you and make it come to life in your head like a movie. As you do,
you will begin to see the information more plainly, and hopefully, understand the content better.

Sketching and drawing with outlines, mind maps, timelines, diagrams, and flowcharts can help you map
out the information more clearly. Don’t be afraid to think outside the box by drawing your own visuals!

Analyze + Emphasize

Sometimes using a highlighter is overrated, especially if you commit highlighter roadkill with your pages.
It’s easy to get carried away turning pages into colorful assortments instead of emphasizing one or two
important points. Make sure you’re accentuating things that have meaning. Don’t just highlight
everything.

Consider using a pencil to write in the margins. Include questions you will answer, facts that stand out,
and keywords. You can use a pencil to underline or circle words that are unfamiliar to you so you can
research them.

Summarize

Whether you say it out loud to yourself, write a short paragraph, or explain what you’ve learned to a
friend—summarizing the information will help you remember it.

Don’t make your readings harder than they have to be. Do them right the first time by actively engaging
with the material and see how it improves your memory. If you’re still uncertain about this strategy,
Quizlet can help you. Active reading makes a difference—and saves time—when you’re studying for
exams, so use it!

What Would These Disney Characters Study At University?

Call it inspiration – or a slight bout of procrastination – but we imagined what some of our favourite
Disney characters would study if they were faced with going to university...

Samiah Hannan

First Published:

While some people have a clear idea of what they want to study, for others, it can be hard to nail down
the ideal course – especially with so many degrees to choose from.

So, in a bout of procrastination – but we imagined what some of our favourite Disney characters would
study if they were faced with going to university...

You may be surprised at some of the programmes these universities offer or the fact that we’ve found
the perfect programmes for these characters.

Moana

UNIVERSITY: University of Plymouth


COURSE: Marine Biology and Oceanography BSc (Hons)

Moana’s calling to the ocean is one which resides at her core, as inherited by her forefathers. Her
determination to voyage across the ocean and save her people, renews her sense of purpose and solves
the identity crisis she experiences, as she rediscovers the ocean.

So, what better subject to explore than the University of Plymouth’s Marine Biology and Oceanography
course? This course will allow her to explore the ocean in a way she has never done before. She’ll
understand the depths of the ocean and discover more than the 5% that has currently been explored by
mankind.

If your love for the ocean sinks as deep as Moana’s, then release your anchors, and take a closer look at
this course!

Hercules

UNIVERSITY: Bangor University

COURSE: Sport Science (Outdoor Activities) BSc (Hons)

We definitely think he’ll enjoy studying Sport Science (Outdoor Activities) at Bangor University, as it'll
give him the chance to test his enhanced speed, stamina and durability.

This course covers everything from land and water sports, to the understanding of the human
physiology. He won’t discover the secrets to his own super human strength, but he’ll get a better
understanding of mere mortal mechanics. This is a realm we know the ancient Greek God hasn’t
explored.

If you’re like Hercules and have an interest in sports or the performance of the human body, then
Bangor University’s Sport Science undergraduate course is for you.

Belle

UNIVERSITY: Hartpury University

COURSE: Human-Animal Interaction (Psychology) BSc (Hons) with a Sandwich year

Belle is thrown into a life where she lives with a dangerous beast and just like it was second nature to do
so, she adopts the lifestyle seamlessly and even learns to love.

So, Human-Animal interaction is ingrained into her but, Hartpury’s Human-Animal undergraduate
degree offers this with psychology, so she can gain a deeper understanding of the animals she loves and
lives for.

Hartpury campus is perfect with 90 animal species living on the grounds, as well as 250 horses that
students can use for riding lessons.

Pinocchio
UNIVERSITY: University for the Creative Arts

COURSE: Acting BA (Hons)

Pinocchio’s father created him with the purpose of being a puppet to entertain, but with that nose of his
growing with every lie, we reckon he needs to brush up on his acting skills and we’ve found the perfect
undergraduate Acting course at the University for the Creative Arts. He’ll finally be ready for what he
was made for!

Jasmine

UNIVERSITY: SOAS University of London

COURSE: Middle Eastern Studies and World Philosophies BA (Hons)

It’s no secret that Jasmine is a keen explorer, fascinated with a world so far removed from her own.
Whether it’s from the comfort of Aladdin’s magic carpet, or disguised on the ground, we’d be surprised
if she didn’t concern herself on philosophical matters like existentialism and understanding the world
through a different ideology.

We think SOAS’ Middle Eastern Studies and World Philosophies undergraduate course would feed her
curiosity, plus the knowledge she’ll gain on her own history and heritage would be key to her success as
a Sultana.

The course explores Middle Eastern Literature, the Unity in Diversity in the Muslim World and the
Margins of Philosophy, amongst many other fascinating topics.
Peter Pan

UNIVERSITY: University of the Arts London

COURSE: Hair, Make-up and Prosthetics for Performance BA (Hons)

His love for his youth, drove him away from his love and imprisoned him in the land of the young. But
what if his youthful appearance didn’t have to be a thing of the past? UAL’s Hair, Make-up and
Prosthetics for performance course will allow Peter to maintain his youth but also share it by
establishing an expertise in hair and makeup, not only for performance, but for everyday life, as a
freelance makeup artist.

Tiana

UNIVERSITY: University of Surrey

COURSE: Food Science and Nutrition BSc (Hons)

Tiana’s deep-rooted love for cooking and all things food, definitely comes from her father. His
premature death and inability to follow through his dreams results in Tiana’s determination to follow
her own, as she opens her own restaurant.

To take her business to the next level, she could attend The University of Surrey where they offer a 3-
year Food Science and Nutrition undergraduate programme. This would allow her to explore the science
of food and its properties to explore the best way to cook up delicious dishes that makes the mouth
water yet maintain exceptional nutritious value.

Buzz Lightyear

UNIVERSITY: Imperial College London

COURSE: Aeronautical Engineering Meng (Hons)

Buzz lands on an unknown world and is desperately trying to return to the life he remembers in space.
So, building a spacecraft would be ideal to whizz back up there!

If you’re anything like Buzz and have an interest in space and science, then this one’s for you! Imperial
College London explores the development of aircraft and spacecraft through their Aeronautical
Engineering undergraduate course. If you’re up for the challenge, you could be the brains behind some
of the most incredible aircrafts, ideal for shipping poor Buzz back home.

Cinderella

UNIVERSITY: University of West London

COURSE: Fashion and Textiles BA (Hons)


Cindy’s determination to go to the ball, results in her working with what she’s got. So, imagine what she
could create with a choice of fabrics and helpers who can carry more than a roll of thread!

The University of West London offers a Fashion and Textiles course which we already know would be a
hit with this trendsetter! This undergraduate course covers it all, from visual communication and
professional design to fashion in context and digital fashion so, like Cindy, you could be dressing all the
land with this hands-on course!

If you’re still deciding on a degree programme that suits you, then there’s some in-depth guidance on
helping you choose a course here.
