(ALL LEVELS) Getting Started with Studying at University Online
This workshop is designed to support anyone in need of a reminder of, or a first-time introduction to, studying at university level. There are expectations of two core academic practices: reading and writing. This joint Centre for Academic Writing/Library workshop will also help you to understand how independent, critical thinking fits into your course and your assignments. By the end of the workshop you will have created an action plan for developing your academic skills and a list of places to support you with your development.
This workshop will be helpful to all students studying at Coventry University; whether you are transitioning from A-Levels, a mature student returning to study after a long break, or an international student unfamiliar with UK academic practice.
Note: This workshop lasts up to two hours. Presentation slides will be sent the next working day *only* to confirmed attendees.
Delivery Level: This workshop is suitable for all study levels to attend at the same time.
