Good Friday afternoon, colleagues
Could anyone help me with 2 requests?
1)Does anyone know of any good software/programmes which might
cover affective issues in learning such as motivation, stress,
confidence, staying the course, adapting to change/transition
and generally help orientate students towards their learning
effectively? I'm sure that a specific package covering all these
things would be too much to hope for, but a few of the areas
might be embedded in other packages dedicated to things like
essay writing, time management or orientation into HE. If any
colleagues have their own packages/programmes which we could
purchase a site license for, all the better.
2)Do any of your HEIs publish summaries of lecture notes on the
web? Here, I'm not referring to the full notes that many
of your academic schools may make available, just an outline of
what was covered in the lecture. What do you think of this idea,
anyway? Do you think it would help certain groups such as
international students? Or does it discourage independent
learning?
Sorry to hit you with all this on a Friday but all suggestions
will be most gratefully received when you all return after the
weekend!
Best wishes
Sarah
