THE STUDENT HAT

HAT: On a train, a locomotive engineer and a conductor
each wears a different kind of hat. You will notice that
various jobs in the society are designated by different hats.
From this we get the word hat as a slang term meaning
ones specialized duties.

NAME: ________________________________ ORG: __________________________

POST/OCCUPATION: ___________________________________________________

DATE STARTED: ___________________ DATE COMPLETED: __________________

PREREQUISITES: None (Method 1 Word Clearing is Recommended).

MATERIALS: The Student Hat Course Pack

The Study Tapes

LENGTH OF COURSE: Three weeks full time (eight hours per day, five days per
week).

PRODUCT: The end product of this course is: an able student who knows how to study.
He is a student who has the know-how and tools to be able to study and apply the
materials of any course and will do so.

SEQUENCE: This checksheet is studied once through in the sequence listed on the
checksheet.

CERTIFICATE: Upon successful completion of this course, the student may be

awarded the certificate of HUBBARD GRADUATE OF STUDY TECHNOLOGY.

R-FACTOR: YOU ARE EXPECTED TO APPLY THE STUDY TECHNOLOGY AS YOU

LEARN IT TO YOUR IMMEDIATE STUDIES. YOU ARE EXPECTED TO
DEMONSTRATE YOUR ABILITY TO APPLY THE COURSE MATERIALS BY USING
THE STUDY TECH ON THE COURSE ITSELF.

You must see for yourself whether this data is true or not through direct application.
A datum is true because it works and because youve seen that it is true, not just
because someone says it is true.

The value of your future studies is dependent upon how well you do this course. A
good, practical grasp of these materials will ensure you success in all future study.

Whenever a theory item on a checksheet is marked with a star (*), it means the item
is to be star-rate checked out. A star-rate checkout is defined as A very exact
checkout which verifies the full and minute knowledge of the student of a portion of
study materials and tests his full understanding of the data and ability to apply it.
(Reference: HCOB 21 Sept. 70R, STUDY DEFINITIONS) A checkout is done either by
another student or, on selected issues, by the Supervisor himself.

IMPORTANT NOTE: In doing this course, be very certain you never go past a word you
do not fully understand.

The only reason a person gives up a study or becomes confused or unable to learn
is because he or she has gone past a word that was not understood.

1
 The confusion or inability to grasp or learn comes AFTER a word that the person
did not have defined and understood.

Have you ever had the experience of coming to the end of a page and realizing you
didnt know what you had read? Well, somewhere earlier on that page you went past a
word that you had no definition for or an incorrect definition for.

Heres an example. It was found that when the crepuscule arrived the children
were quieter and when it was not present they were much livelier. You see what
happens. You think you dont understand the whole idea, but the inability to understand
came entirely from the one word you could not define, crepuscule, which means twilight
or darkness.

It may not only be the new and unusual words that you will have to look up. Some
commonly used words can often be misdefined and so cause confusion.

This datum about not going past an undefined word is the most important fact in the
whole subject of study. Every subject you have taken up and abandoned had its words
which you failed to get defined.

Therefore, in studying the materials of your course, be very, very certain you never
go past a word you do not fully understand. If the material becomes confusing or you
cant seem to grasp it, there will be a word just earlier that you have not understood.
Dont go any further, but go back to BEFORE you got into trouble, find the
misunderstood word and get it defined.

If you run into trouble, get help from the Supervisor.
