You're about to start a university degree, and whether you have
just left school or are returning to study after some years there
are many things you need to know about learning at university. This
invaluable guide will assist you to understand all facets of your
university study and to become a successful and satisfied student.
It will enable you to: become an active, independent and
self-directed learner; adjust to the academic expectations (of ten
assumed and unspoken) and the university environment; gain
practical skills and strategies for learning: develop transferable
skills and attitudes for lifelong learning; concentrate on
understanding as the key to university learning; be self-confident
as a university student; avoid some of the common mistakes made by
students in their first year; and become a successful learner.
Reflection and evaluation exercises at the beginning of each
chapter provide an opportunity to evaluate your current learning
habits, prepare you for new ideas and make you more aware of the
experience of learning. Advice from other students-genuine voices
taken from a survey of exiting first year students-will assist you
to see some of the pitfalls and methods of recovery. Finally,
useful templates for a weekly study timetable, testtaking
strategies and a semester planner are also provided.
