Year 9 students with Dr Prue Salter from Enhanced Learning Educational Services
This week Dr Prue Salter from Enhanced Learning Educational Services presented a study skills session to Year 9 and Year 11 students.
The sessions focused on helping students identify changes and improvements they could make to their approach to their studies in order to maximise their results while minimising stress.
The main areas covered by Dr Salter were working effectively in the evenings and dealing with distractions, managing time efficiently, planning for assessments, making brain-friendly study notes on a regular basis and using a wide variety of active study techniques to suit individual learning preferences.
Parents are encouraged to review the handout from the session with students and discuss the main areas identified where changes need to be made.
All students and parents at Catherine McAuley also have access to a great study skills website to help students develop their skills. Go to www.studyskillshandbook.com.au and enter the school username and password. This can be found in the Need To Know section of the school newsletter.
