Workshop Smart studying, part 1: Get a grip on your reading work

Are you drowning in books, articles, syllabi, and lectures? This one-hour workshop introduces you to techniques for getting an overview and reading quickly and with more understanding. You will explore your own reading approach and what is needed for the subject you are taking. You will work on active and passive reading and getting a better grip on the literature. You will also be introduced to the techniques of speed reading.

This workshop is also available in Dutch as 'Slim lezen voor je studie'.

Combine 4 workshops for study success

This workshop is part of a series of 4. Especially when combining parts 1, and part 2, 'Dealing smartly with the study material', you gain a strong basis for efficient studying. Of course, you can also take the workshops separately.

Do it yourself?

You can also check out the advice on the webpage Study methods and study skills.
