In this message: 1) Learning Preferences Workshop; 2) Nanoengineering REU in San Diego

******************

The Academic Advising Center would like to announce a workshop for students at UF.  You might want to consider attending this workshop, especially if you want to get a basic understanding of your learning styles to enhance your academic experience.  This presentation is helpful for those who are new to UF, as well as those who have been at UF for 2 or more semesters wishing to learn more about strengthening their learning skills.

Understanding Your Learning Preferences and Becoming a More Successful Student
Presenter: Robert Kwong

Date: 2/15/2017
Time: 4:05 PM - 4:55 PM
Location: Academic Advising Center (Farrior) 2000

Struggling in class even though you understood the material? Confused as to why you did not do as well as you hoped on the exam, although the homework was not difficult for you? When students do not perform to their highest academic potential, it is not due to inability. Rather, it is from not fully understanding how they learn best for each class. Having a better sense of your learning style or learning preference will give you the edge in becoming more successful in your classes, and provide you with the tools to adapt different to teaching styles. This workshop will provide a basic overview of the different learning styles and help you learn to discover which study skill methods work best for you.

Seating is limited.

Please sign-up by registering for the workshop at: https://www.advising.ufl.edu/workshops  and selecting “AAC”  from “Select a Workshop Area”.

Sincerely,

Robert

Subject: Summer REU Program at UC San Diego

Are you an undergraduate who might be interested in the nanoengineering, bioengineering career path?

How would you like to come to UC San Diego for a 10 week paid research internship?

Research is an excellent opportunity to become more engaged in your field of study and interact with faculty members in prospective graduate schools. The University of California San Diego SDNI REU program offers undergraduates the opportunity to conduct a ten-week intensive research experience.

For more information about the program’s requirements, please visit our site:
