Articles and More Articles.

Many of us have a tendency of never read news papers perhaps because we just can't find 5 minutes in our daily life to sit down and read a couple of articles, work and school are probably the mos frequent things that stop us to inform ourselves about whats going on around the world.

Sometimes wen you read an article you really have to pay atention to the message they are trying to get across to you , Could be something like a long text about a certain political point of view or a critic about last week preview of a movie, Luckly for us (college students) some of them could be advertising a new program that benefit college students and some that seem to be selling a product.

One article in particular would be the new technology that Purdue University is starting this two thousand nine fall semester. This program is called "signals" and is for the main purpose to increase college students grades and over all way they approach a class.

And this is how it works:

As soons as the student log into their accounts they will se a window showing hoe thwy're doing in their classes The basic colors, red, yellow and green are significant in there own way. The red is the worst. Meaning that the student is failing and could possibly lose credit for that class. The yellow is reserved for students that are not doing there best but also just getting by. This does not mean that the student is absolutly safe from failing but should take a little more effort before the light hits red. Which in turn would mean that they have hit the failing mark. The last and final color green. Reserved for students that are not only turning in the homework on time and scoring high on test in the classroom, but also with extra help. This along the lines of scheduled tutoring, login's when they check there updates for there classes and what they'll be doing in that class.
