Learning Skills

Just like falling is part of learning how to ride a bike, failure is an important part of developing strategies for success in university. In this conversation-focused workshop, Peer Leaders Diya and Rubee will share strategies for reflecting upon, and constructively engaging with failure to further your academic and personal growth.

A Pomodoro Group Study Session is a focused study event where everyone studies quietly for 25 minutes, then takes a 5-minute break together. It helps boost productivity, maintain focus, and stay accountable in a supportive group setting.

Join Peer Leader Rubee Kung, for this insightful workshop about how to use A.I. the right way!
