We will also look at how to plan your assignment and structure your writing.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

By the end of the session, participants will be able to:

Identify key study skills that aid learning in an efficient and enjoyable way.

Understand how our brain processes information and why mental blocks occur.

Implement a strategy to produce the best possible work in the least amount of time.
