 Mission Statement

The mission of the Study Skills Center is to provide assistance to students in learning or improving their study techniques and in developing better study habits that will not only help lead them to successful academic careers, but will also help them in life-long activities.  This assistance is provided to students of all academic levels.

Enrolling in Modules

Students may register for on-line modules until the beginning of the 11th week of the semester.  If students are currently registered as day-time students, they can register by going to the BYU-I home page registration. Students who are off-track, or taking the course in various locations of the world, will need to contact our Continuing Education department and follow the instructions for registration found on their web page.   http://www.byui.edu/ce/

Description of Modules

The Study Skills Center offers six on-line modules that students may choose from:  1) concentration and memorization, 2) note taking, 3) thinking skills, 4) textbook study, 5) time management, 6) test taking.  It is recommended that students take no more than one module at a time. 

 

  • Each module is worth .5 credits and will apply toward graduation under the electives area.  Each module runs for four weeks.
  • Each week's activities have specific due dates for completion. A new session of each module begins every four weeks.
  • The module information is taught using readings, worksheets, discussion groups, and videos.  After students complete an activity, they post it on  I-Learn.  It's, then, graded by a Study Skills Assistant.
