Study Skills Page

Within my time at Uni, I have grown academically and I would love to help you do the same. Down below are 10 hyperlinks that I believe will enhance your academic work

 

1- Top tips for student life.

This page is all about how to survive student life. Despite it not being able to help academically, it explains how to manage your time, top tips and what to do if you’re missing home. I found this really helpful and I hope you do to.

 

2- IT training and support

This page is all about how to get the best out of your laptop/computer. I found this helpful as it taught me new things and really made my work look that much better.

 

3- Marjon Library Discovery.

Marjon library discovery is great if you don’t want to get out of bed when doing an assignment! Within this, you are able to search for books online and pick out key information that will help you. It has an advanced section where if you type in key words, it will give you the relevant material that you need and therefore saves you time reading through journals that aren’t relevant to what you need.

 

4- Margen

This is my heaven. Students hate referencing and this basically does it for you and saves so much stress, hassle and time.

 

5-  Academic skill zone

6- 14 ways to help your grades.

8-  Ways to manage stress

Uni work can be stressful. If you’re stressed, you won’t write as well as you could do. This page lists different ways to manage and overcome those stresses.

9- Mendeley

This is another key site for helping students with referencing.

10- Grammarly

https://www.grammarly.com

This page is so key for academic writing. It is so easy to use, it corrects grammar and spellings, therefore making it impossible to make a mistake when it comes to those two in academic writing.
