HOW ARE YOUR STUDY HABITS? Did you know that taking courses online presents greater challenges than taking courses in a traditional classroom because the study is largely self-motivated and self-directed?

If you’re considering an online course, try the Learner Readiness Tool, a free assessment that will both rate your preparedness and give good advice for more effective study. Although designed specifically as preparation for online classwork, the tool is great for all students and can help anyone develop better study habits.

And if you are looking for a good place to study, don’t forget that the J. W. Martin Library has study rooms available, including one room (Room 7) with a Smart Board.
