Understanding How You Learn Workshop Series Fall 2024

The Academic Success Centre is once again offering an online workshop series during the Fall 2024 term called Understanding How You Learn!

In these workshops, we’ll discuss four topics which impact learning in significant ways: the brain, critical thinking, stress, and procrastination. We will explore how these topics influence your learning and how to leverage this understanding to your time at college and beyond. These workshops will be hosted by the ASC’s Academic Coaches!

Each workshop will be offered twice on the same day: over the lunch hour and at the end of the day. Attend whichever one fits best with your schedule!

If you plan to attend a workshop and require accommodations, please email us at tutoring@rrc.ca. Workshop recordings will be made available below once workshop dates have passed.

The workshop descriptions and link to join are available here. Questions? Contact tutoring@rrc.ca
