Study Smart online course now open
Wednesday, 02 September 2020
New Part 1 and Foundation students coming to study at Reading will receive their invitation to take our successful online course, Study Smart, this week.
This online transition to university course, developed exclusively for our students by the Study Advice and Online Courses team, is now in its fourth run.
This year Study Smart has been updated to reflect the blended ways students will be studying this autumn and includes advice on engaging in webinars, getting the most out of online course material and managing their study space. As in previous runs, the course includes videos, quizzes and resources on academic integrity, communicating at university and independent learning. These activities and resources have been designed to help students with the transition to university level study and, once enrolled, students retain access to these resources for their entire time with us.
Feedback shows Study Smart is successful because of staff endorsement, so please do encourage your new Foundation and Part 1 students to enrol on the course (enrolments remain open until the end of Week 6).
For more information about Study Smart, see the staff-facing Tutors' Guide or email Dr Sonia Hood.
