to work more efficiently, manage your study time, improve your
presentation of work, increase your ability to remember facts and
concepts, and get the most out of your chosen course.
Improving
Learning Skills Course
Studying is more than gathering information and reproducing it in
assessment tasks such as essays and examinations. Studying involves
knowing how to approach a problem, analysing the problem, identifying
what you already know, deciding how to gather more information, and
much more. This section will help you gain and improve your skills in
studying.
Studying is an active process. Open learning materials enable adult
learners to take responsibility for their own learning. This course has
been prepared as an open learning resource for people who wish to
undertake a learning programme that involves them preparing for a
period of studying. It is designed either to form part of any course of
study or may be used as a freestanding guide by students.
You can use this course, as an active learner, to identify:
* what you know already
* what you need to know
* what interests you
* how to use your knowledge to enhance
your critical awareness.
This course will enable you to improve your study skills and it is
designed for students, practitioners and other people involved in
learning and/or being assessed.

Job Interview
Skills
Getting the job you want is not about following rules or giving the
'right' interview answer. It is about presenting yourself in the most
authentic way that takes care of you and the interviewers at the same
time. So many people throw their chances away: they do not take enough
care and interview preparation time so that the whole process is
enjoyable, stimulating and informative for both parties. This section
aims to show you how.
The Effective
Learner Course
This section will consider the importance of study skills and how we
can identify and enhance our current skill set. We will then take a
closer look at different learning styles and how knowledge of our own
preferences in this area can make our learning more effective. Finally
we will look at some basic time management techniques to enable you to
plan and organise your studies and stay motivated.
