While she enjoys learning, she feels she learns more through work experiences than in university lectures. She only attends classes that directly relate to assessments. The student feels disconnected from university and frustrated that attending classes is a necessity rather than something she truly values.

![SAY
• “I need a degree to get a job, well a good job anyway… like in
strategy or marketing or consulting”
• “Education is important to me”
• “My parents told me university is a must these days, I guess
that’s why I’m studying Commerce”
• “I do enjoy learning, but I often find uni really boring”
• “I only go to classes I know I have to, like because they are
handing out case studies or giving pre-exam briefings”
• “I feel like I learn more when I’m working than when I’m at uni”
THINK
• Education is important, but university classes are not . She cannot
see the value in attendance unless there is an immediate outcome
• Tertiary education is a means to a desired end, but not that desirable
in itself
DO
• Travels 2 hours to attend university 4 days a week
• Take notes attentively in lectures, but does not engage when
questions are posed to the audience
• Has conversations with friends before deciding whether or not
to attend a particular lecture or tutorial
• Works part time in an unrelated job (1 week and 1 weekend
night)
FEEL
• Disconnected : her personal desire / hunger to learn is not matched
by an experience that is valued by the learner
• Frustrated: attending university is a trade-off between a necessity
and “what else” she could be doing
Problem statement: [The] Penultimate student needs a way to acquire skills and knowledge that is valued, because while
education is seen to be important, university itself is not.

Adult mentors 20120725_141558_10
This document outlines guidelines for a student mentoring program. It recommends that any staff person can volunteer to mentor one student for at least 15 minutes per week. Students who are not responding well to Tier 1 interventions and who lack motivation, self-esteem, positive role models or interest in school would be candidates.

Academic Pressure Too Much To Handle
Academic pressure comes from the stress of schooling and pursuing a degree, and is especially difficult for college students living away from home. It stems from parents' peer pressure, over-expectations, and financial concerns; faculty and institutions' result-oriented expectations and updating subjects; and students' procrastination, distractions, and fear of examinations. Too much academic pressure gives students negative perceptions and, in extreme cases, some students who cannot handle it may consider committing self-harm. The best way to manage this stress is to reduce distractions, set realistic goals, and seek help from mentors.
Stereotyping
Teachers often make non-academic evaluations of students based on stereotypes related to their social class, such as perceiving working-class students as less motivated and articulate and middle-class students as more able even if less bright. This stereotyping can cause problems by leading teachers to ignore bright working-class students and give them less support and encouragement, while thick middle-class students receive more support just because of their perceived social class.
Academic stress & pressure
Academic stress can be caused by strong parental pressure, peer pressure, poor time management, sleep deprivation, and not enjoying coursework. This stress can lead students to have negative thoughts, poor performance, irritation, and even consider suicide in some cases. The document outlines steps for students to avoid stress like time management, exercise, diet, sleep, and seeking help or guidance. It also discusses government initiatives to provide counseling, adapt curriculum, and monitor student stress levels.

Prototype
A young woman is unhappy with her mediocre university and wants to leave school to enter the workforce. She is advised to discuss her concerns with a university counselor, evaluate other university options, and plot future career goals to determine education requirements. She could also shadow employees at potential employers to learn more about job offers and positions.
ENGAGE DEEPLY
The document discusses the differences between contributors and non-contributors in their approach to work. Contributors are deeply engaged, enthusiastic, go beyond what is asked to understand concepts fully, and are committed to the success of their projects. Non-contributors do just enough to complete tasks, are not enthusiastic, and are not deeply engaged or committed. The document provides examples of a non-contributor researcher who gives up easily versus a contributor researcher who finds the work challenging but discovers new answers by engaging deeply. It emphasizes that contributors take initiative, show interest, and use their intellect to create high quality work, while non-contributors have a "chalta hai" or whatever attitude and focus on just completing tasks.
