Workshops

Learning Support facilitates workshops for all students, covering a diverse range of academic skills from 'how to write an essay' to 'how to manage your time'. We offer a series of workshops designed to support the needs of international students, such as written and oral communication skills. As well as these, we often work with lecturers to develop workshops specific to the needs of your course. For schedules and information about how to book, go to Workshops.

Individual & small group consultations

Whether you are an Open Foundation or Newstep student, an undergraduate or postgraduate, local or international student, you can see a Learning Adviser for any aspect of your writing or study for Individual or small group help. Our Maths Learning Advisers see small groups of students, and we also offer student-to-student maths advice.

Resources

For a range of resources about academic skills from essay writing to time management, go to Learning and Study resources. For maths resources, go to Maths.

 Blackboard

As a student of the university, you are automatically enrolled in the Learning Support Blackboard site, where you will find copies of slides and handouts used in workshops, as well as Learning and Study resources. Log in to Blackboard and select 'Learning Support' from your list of courses, or go to http://blackboard.newcastle.edu.au/.

Collaborative Learning Space
