In this semester class, students will learn a multitude of skills to help them take control of their studying and class workload so that they can be more successful students. Setting goals and priorities, learning to organize workloads and time, developing strategies for reading textbooks, writing papers, taking more effective notes, and how to study more efficiently for tests will be the focus of this class. Students will be guided to use these skills with the courses they are taking this semester and through in-class exercises and practice. This class can also help students with poor organizational skills.
