UNTD Learning Commons

The word "final" is so loaded, an academic beast you must defeat. Luckily for you, the Learning Commons is hosting Finals Study Squad, no appointments needed. You can sit with a tutor to discuss STEM related coursework and concepts or APA formatting for your final drafts. Don't struggle alone. Let the LC be a resource for you.

Many of you are probably working on your first or second major writing assignments. You're being asked to find sources and evaluate their effectiveness. Below are a few reading tips to help with note taking.

Engage with the text as if it were a living document.
Question the author. Question the title. Argue with the body of work. In short, respond to everything.

Take stock of the opinions you have. Question why you believe what you believe, and highlight what made you feel that way.

Research what you don’t know. Look up words you don’t understand and look at the context clues around the word.

The semester has long since started, but with all the whacky weather, it still feels new. We in the Learning Commons hope you'll take advantage of your resources and come in to see us!

Happy Thanksgiving Trailblazers! Enjoy this time with loved ones and get you some much deserved rest.
