For a couple of years the Library has offered a range of study skills support for students. These include a programme of workshops on:-
- time management
- reading and note-taking
- essay writing
- report writing
- oral presentation skills
- working in groups
- revision and exam skills.
Participants can book a place on the courses up to a month in advance through the Online Careers Management System (registration on this system is necessary). The full programme of workshops is listed on the Library’s study skills web pages which also contain links to recommended reading and relevant web resources.
For students who can’t attend the workshops, a range of supporting advice sheets and planning sheets are available both online and in print from the Open 3 area of the Library. Material to support the workshops is also available from the Learn server.
If you feel that there may be demand for a tailored version of one of these courses to be delivered to students in your department please get in touch with either Steph, Lizzie, Tracy or Becky to discuss what the Library could offer.
