Time Management Strategies 

Learn time-tested strategies to gain control of your time. Bottom line: attitude is key. This workshop will help you understand the myths and realities of procrastination, 设定目标, 变得有条理, 使用计划表, and segmenting your time. There is freedom in structure!  To schedule, contact 贝蒂咖喱, bcurry@jingshuoshuo.com


坚持下去! Smart Study Strategies

Did you know that we tend to be poor judges of when we are learning well and when we are not? Some study methods give the illusion of mastery but don’t lead to real learning of critical ideas that can be applied in other contexts. This workshop will cover the highlights of effective reading, retrieval practice (self-quizzing), and deep learning through the connection of new material to prior knowledge.  基于 坚持下去: The Science of Successful Learning 作者:Peter C. 亨利·布朗. Roediger III, and Mark A McDaniel.  To schedule, contact 贝蒂咖喱, bcurry@jingshuoshuo.com.

Build A Network For Life

Many people are intimidated by the thought of networking. Rather than think of it as networking, we have to think of it as Building A Network. This workshop will provide tips on how to build a network from the bottom up, utilizing the people you already know as well as tips for how to create relationships. To schedule, contact LadyStacie Rimes-Boyd, LRimesBo@jingshuoshuo.com


Connecting Your Class to Your Career

对于一些, it’s easy to minimize your accomplishments or not know how to connect knowledge gained through classes, course-embedded projects, 实习, 出国留学, student organizations and volunteering! But, all of these experiences, and more, have long lasting relevance to future career paths. 在这个研讨会上, students will be guided through Career Competencies, what employers are looking for and complete an exercise that will reinforce the knowledge and skills they have already attained through an examination of outcomes. To schedule, contact LadyStacie Rimes-Boyd, LRimesBo@jingshuoshuo.com
