"Helping Students Develop Effective Study Skills"
This session is suitable for a high school staff meeting or staff professional development day. The session can be tailored to the time available although preferred length of time is 60-80 minutes.
Some of the areas covered are:
- Helping students organise and manage their papers.
- Study notes: how, when, why and what!
- Making study active with emphasis on learning styles.
- Helping the brain: what the latest research has to say.
- Fostering time management skills.
- Overcoming obstacles to success.
The aim of the session is twofold:
1. To increase teachers' knowledge and understanding of effective study skills.
2. To demonstrate practical ways teachers can help improve study skills within the classroom environment.
