THE ACADEMIC CHALLENGE Sample Clauses

THE ACADEMIC CHALLENGE. AS Level work is significantly more demanding than GCSE work, and, as such, is different from what you have been accustomed to. As ‘Advanced’ implies, the content of each subject is generally more extensive and the degree of difficulty greater. That much is obvious. But what many students fail to realise is the different approach to study required at this level. Teachers will expect you to take greater responsibility for your own work – doing no more work than your teachers formally set for homework is a recipe for failure. You should in addition commit yourself to regular private study, which includes. ♦ thorough learning of what was done in class that day ♦ making your own notes ♦ reading material to further your knowledge of your subjects ♦ continuing coursework ♦ reviewing/revising work previously done. Pupils should engage in twenty hours per week of private study beyond timetabled class time. Timetabled study periods should be planned in advance by pupils to ensure that they are used productively. The remainder of the twenty hours should be completed at home and, to ensure each pupil achieves their potential , this should commence from the start of term. Remember, teachers will be expecting more of you and doing less for you! Your aim should be to take control of your learning so that you are ‘in the driving seat’ with your teachers as partners guiding you to good results. It often takes some time for Sixth Formers to come to terms with this approach, but the sooner you do, the more you will enjoy the rewards of the academic challenge.

As ‘Advanced’ implies, the content of each subject is generally more extensive and the degree of difficulty greater. That much is obvious. But what many students fail to realise is the different approach to study required at this level. Teachers will expect you to take greater responsibility for your own work – doing no more work than your teachers formally set for homework is a recipe for failure. You should in addition commit yourself to regular private study, which includes:  thorough learning of what was done in class that day  making your own notes  reading material to further your knowledge of your subjects  continuing coursework reviewing/revising work previously done. Typically, you should aim to spend about 1 hour per subject per day on homework and private study, both in school and at home. This is not easy. ‘Native wit’ is no longer sufficient. Commitment and organisation are also essential. Remember, teachers will be expecting more of you and doing less for you! Your aim should be to take control of your learning so that you are ‘in the driving seat’ with your teachers as partners guiding you to good results. It often takes some time for Sixth Formers to come to terms with this approach, but the sooner you do, the more you will enjoy the rewards of the academic challenge.

This obligation of SAP shall not apply if the alleged infringement or misappropriation results from (i) Use of the Software in conjunction with any other software; (ii) Use of the Software with an apparatus other than a Designated Unit; (iii) failure to promptly use an update provided by SAP if such infringement or misappropriation could have been avoided by use of the update; or (iv) any Use not permitted by this Agreement. This obligation of SAP also shall not apply if Licensee fails to timely notify SAP in writing of any such claim; however Licensee’s failure to provide or delay in providing such notice shall not relieve SAP of its obligations under this Section except to the extent SAP is prejudiced by Licensee’s failure to provide or delay in providing such notice. SAP is permitted to control fully the defense and any settlement of any such claim as long as such settlement shall not include a financial obligation on or admission of liability by Licensee. In the event Licensee declines SAP’s proffered defense, or otherwise fails to give full control of the defense to SAP’s designated counsel, then Licensee waives SAP’s obligations under this Section 8.1. Licensee shall reasonably cooperate in the defense of such claim and may appear, at its own expense, through counsel reasonably acceptable to SAP. SAP expressly reserves the right to cease such defense of any claim(s) in the event the Software is no longer alleged to infringe or misappropriate, or is held not to infringe or misappropriate, the third party’s rights. SAP may settle or mitigate damages from any claim or potential claim by substituting alternative substantially equivalent non-infringing programs and supporting documentation for the Software. Licensee shall not undertake any action in response to any infringement or misappropriation, or alleged infringement or misappropriation of the Software that is prejudicial to SAP’s rights.

If, after the expiration of ninety (90) days from the date of such notice, Biochrom has not obtained a discontinuance of such infringement or brought suit against the third party infringer, then the parties shall appoint by mutual agreement an attorney with at least 15 years experience in litigating patent infringement lawsuits in the United States, who is a partner at a law firm with a nationally recognized intellectual property practice and who has no prior relationship with either party (“Independent Patent Counsel”).
