Advancing Learning 2018

Ever wonder if students actually study for their exams? We would like to share the insight and results of providing an online study skills module to students prior to their midterm exam. The rationale for this project is rooted in the importance of students engaging in effective study skills in preparation for their exam success and learning in the college setting. Online student activity data was examined to compare the midterm grade between those students that accessed the module and those that did not. Students were also asked to complete an anonymous survey to ask about their studying practices, including their experience with the study skills module. We would like to share our findings and feedback from our data and survey collection with other faculty.
