what are the most important factors that affect student success? while every research study comes up with different conclusions, our time in the education field tells us that there are 5 key elements common across all successful students!
\n <\/p>\n

1. motivation<\/h3>\n

there are two kinds of motivation: extrinsic and intrinsic. extrinsic motivation comes from outside sources \u2013 like grades, rewards, and treats. this kind of motivation typically results in short-term success.<\/p>\n

intrinsic motivation, in contrast, is what leads to long-term academic gains. when you\u2019re internally motivated to do your best \u2013 whether because you truly want to learn or because you\u2019re interested in the subject \u2013 you\u2019ll be more likely to sustain your efforts over time, with or without an external reward.
\n <\/p>\n

2. ability<\/h3>\n

ability is an important part of student success, but there\u2019s more to ability than meets the eye. while many people think that ability is static, research shows that it can be enhanced with time and effort. you can grow and develop your abilities by adapting your studies to your learning style. for example, if you\u2019re a visual learner, ditch the audio books and draw mind maps to help you study.
\n <\/p>\n

3. support<\/h3>\n

a network of teachers, professors, parents, family, and friends who believe in you and support your educational goals can make a world of difference. these people can give you the feedback and encouragement you need to succeed not just academically, but personally!<\/p>\n

invest in your support system by identifying and building positive relationships with trusted mentors and peers.
\n <\/p>\n

4. goals<\/h3>\n

students who know what they\u2019re aiming for have a much easier time in school. why? because students with goals in mind can clearly articulate why studying is important and how it will help them get from point a to point z.<\/p>\n

\n <\/p>\n

5. practice<\/h3>\n

there\u2019s really no better way to improve than to practice \u2013 and that principle is true for most, if not all, things in life. academics are no exception. students who are committed to practicing what they learn (whether through homework, self-assigned quizzes, attention checks, or practice tests) are more likely to be successful.
