Please join us on October 1, 2020 to kick off the Georgia Highlands College Motivation and Mindset Summit. The Summit aligns to the efforts of the University System of Georgia Momentum Approach. In addition, the Summit is kindly supported by the USG STEM IV Initiative grant program.
The workshop description states that all students who are admitted to college have the ability to ace their courses. However, most students did not acquire effective learning strategies in high school and resort to memorizing information just before tests. This strategy usually yields poor results, with students earning grades much lower than their ability. This interactive workshop will introduce you to cognitive science based learning strategies that help all students experience meaningful, transferable learning, resulting in A’s in their courses! We encourage you to attend the workshop Metacognition: The Key to Acing Courses (and Life) to learn more about these strategies.
The workshop is facilitated by Dr. Saundra McGuire, Director Emerita of the Center for Academic Success and retired Assistant Vice Chancellor and Professor of Chemistry at Louisiana State University.
