11I Learning Study Skills


Since the end of the semester is quickly approaching, I decided to take a visit to the Office of Study Skills to get some tips and strategies for how to start preparing for final exams. The Office of Study Skill Enrichment teaches students how to manage their time, note taking/study skills, and test taking strategies. These are skills many first year students struggle with. “When students gain self-confidence through good study skills, test-taking techniques and note-taking strategies, it changes the whole educational experience for them. It enhances the teaching/learning experience in every way for all involved” (www.southernct.edu). This quote is taken directly from the Office of Study Skills and Enrichment website, which states their main focus is helping students learn the necessary skills to create an empowering education experience. This resource helps college students learn how skills that will make them more confident in their studies which leads to more success.

The Office of Study Skill Enrichment is a very important place that all students of the SCSU community should be familiar with. They offer support and strategies that will help push students into the path of success within their school work. They also offer workshops and meetings to discuss and learn new skills that anyone can attend including high school and middle school students.

The Office of Study Skill Enrichment is located in Engleman Hall C016. All students should take a visit to this office because everyone can benefit from what they have to offer!
