My Study Plan for the First Semester
It’s a great opportunity as well as a new challenge for me to study computer software at college. This major is absolutely ideal because my goal is to become a computer software engineer. To achieve the goal, I’ve worked out my study plan for the first semester.
Altogether there are 18 weeks in this semester, during which I will study theory for 12weeks followed by six weeks of practical study. I will take seven compulsory courses which will mean 28 hours of lectures every week. I will spend six hours a week on my two selective courses-Technology English Reading and Computer
Multimedia Technology. Then, I will organize my own time. As far as I’m concerned, revision is very important if I am to grasp the teachers’ lectures, so it will take me at least one hour to goover what I have learned in class every day. Besides, I need to spend half
an hour previewing the text before the next class so as to understand the teachers’ lectures more easily. In order to make full preparations for my further studies in computer software, I will spend ten hours reading books concerning software engineering,database application and other related books in the library every week.
