DEVELOPING EFFECTIVE LEARNING STRATEGIES: A KEY TO SUCCESS AT CSUN

In each of the last two years, a cross-section of CSUN freshmen have participated in interviews about their study habits.  They answered questions about how they study, what they do in the classroom and what academic strategies work for them at CSUN.

We are sharing some of these students’ insights and strategies with you—take whatever you think might work for you and, if a suggestion or tip doesn't help, toss it out and try another.
