To be successful in the class, students should bring necessary materials like a notebook and pencil, be positive, and work to improve their intelligence through effort. The document outlines expectations for students, including being responsible for their own learning, participating in discussions, following directions, and giving their best effort. Students are instructed not to raise their hands unless told, show up tardy, cheat, or memorize facts. They are encouraged to try new things and always sit up, listen, ask and answer questions, take notes, and look at the speaker. Quality of work is emphasized over quantity.
