Chris Gasser<\/a><\/p>\n My favorite resource from the remote and online learning page is the Anatomy of an Email visual. Honestly, as a student I probably racked up tens of hours sitting in front of a blank screen wondering how in the world to write an email to an instructor. The anatomy of an email resource makes it so easy to see how to style an email to be professional, effective, and concise!<\/p>\n Clare Creighton<\/a><\/p>\n I\u2019m a big fan of the Weekly Calendar. It’s a tool that works in many contexts. Creating a schedule for the week can help students find or make time for what\u2019s important to them. Now that we\u2019re all working from home it seems even more important to have a way to delineate work vs. play, make time for relaxation, and stay productive with more distractions. The Weekly Calendar is one of the best antidotes to procrastination. If I sketch out what I\u2019m going to work on and when, I\u2019m more likely to follow through with that plan.<\/p>\n Anika Lautenbach<\/a><\/p>\n My favorite resource is the Productive Study Space worksheet. As someone who\u2019s working full time and doing an online graduate program, I definitely understand how challenging it can be to make your space work. This tool helps students consider how to get in the mindset for remote working or studying, how to set up and stick to a schedule, and what to do if they\u2019re not able to dedicate a single space to work or study. These considerations have been crucial to helping me continue to do my work this term, and this tool can definitely help other students think about what will work for them.<\/p>\n Sarah Norek<\/a><\/p>\n I wish I\u2019d asked these sorts of questions when I was in college. Asking and answering these questions equips students with a kind of a blueprint. They figure out how to engage in the course, who they can go to for help, and how assignments will impact to their grade. Knowing these details early on sets a student up with an understanding of the course\u2019s trajectory and expectations. If they run into any challenges later, already knowing how to reach out\u2014and who to start with\u2014can be a huge stress reliever.<\/p>\n Marjorie Coffey<\/a><\/p>\n In synchronous lectures, information might be lost if notes aren\u2019t taken. In contrast, online content often remains available, making note-taking feel less urgent. Even when learning remotely, note-taking is an important starting point for recording information to later transfer to long-term memory. I like the Note-Taking 101 packet because it provides strategies for taking notes and<\/em> making effective use of those notes throughout the study cycle. When I staff the ASC table for events (for graduate or undergraduate students), the note-taking packet always goes fast! Also, this packet has unicorns in it. And unicorns are cool.<\/p>\n Interested in more tools and strategies to share with students?
