[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 52988, member: 265"] I think the young man did what lot of people (ahem!) do in college: he took tough courses and he didn't work hard enough on them. I got a book on teaching recently and its first chapter is about how previous knowledge can both help and hinder learning. I bet JHD thought, having done ok at Tech for awhile, that he had the routine down pat and could make about the same kind of effort as before with about the same results. When you think like that you are setting yourself up for getting clobbered. The usual result is that you get overconfident and actually end up doing less then when you were new and scared. This isn't a new situation or an unrecoverable one. He'll just have to buckle down and remember to keep his eye on the prize. I'm sure he can do that and that he'll come back with a little fire in his eyes. [/QUOTE]
