Student engagement and perceived ability in study skills and research methods: a new independent learning module.

Burgess, Katherine

Abstract

There is a perceived 'problem' that students beginning their studies in higher education lack the skills required to study effectively and work independently. Some academics believe it is not their job to teach students how to learn and write, while others are keen to help them to do so.
