ID 100A Becoming a Lifelong Learner

(1 credit)
This seminar is designed to assist incoming first-year students with transitional challenges related to university culture and its academic expectations. Students will critically examine themselves as lifelong learners looking at techniques and strategies to use as they adapt to the structures, routines and expectations of college life. Students examine their academic goals, personal strengths, and areas for development; become familiar with college resources and services through in-class presentations from campus staff and develop their communication and oral presentation skills. The course guides students in understanding their learning styles, strengthen knowledge of effective study techniques and explore various time management systems.

This course is required for all students admitted to the University who attend the Gateway to Success Summer program.
