An introduction to agile study approaches for students for planning, prioritising and getting study and revision done.
Kick off your new term and year of study. In this session you will prepare and plan your return to study, learning agile tools and techniques to support your study throughout the year.
Students studying for their GCSEs or higher level qualifications are required to continuously complete homework, create assignments and study for exams. To perform their best they need time and task management skills to plan and manage their workload effectively.
This course provides a tactile and hands on way to help students to map out their study and revision plans, help them get the best results and reduce stress of feeling overwhelmed, especially in the current climate.
Agile is a popular method for task management developed by the tech community which is now used widely in many business sectors and disciplines and is highly transferable into other areas.
These simple ‘agile’ methods provide students with the study skills and tools they need to plan, prioritise and action their work.
