This workshop will make you think about your classes in a different way so that you can go from note-taking to note-making. This will help you get more value from time spent in class so you can avoid unnecessary repetition and spend less time studying outside of class.

Triumphing Over Math Anxiety: Wed, Jan 29th, 4:30-5:20pm in LIBR 025. The goal of this workshop is to help you understand the causes and consequences of math anxiety. We will help you understand the root causes of your anxiety so you can both minimize the amount of stress you feel and execute better when you are feeling anxious.

Succeeding on Math & Stats Tests: Wed, Feb 5th, 4:30-5:30pm in LIBR 025. We will discuss the ways that math and stats tests are similar to those in other disciplines, and the ways they are different. You will learn how to improve your performance through better preparation, making good choices during a test, and learning from your mistakes.
