LEARNING TIPS AND SELF- & TIME MANAGEMENT

When preparing for exams, do you find yourself despairing about the amount of material you have to learn? Are you having problems getting into a rhythm with your studies? Do you have problems writing academic papers? Do you only start studying the week before exams? There are many obstacles to learning and successfully passing exams.

Reflect on your own learning and try to describe it. Based on this, the student advice and counselling service offers individual advisory sessions, workshops, and coaching sessions. It is also able to provide recommendations of literature that may help students in all disciplines and semesters design an efficient and sustainable learning process. For this, it draws on findings from cognitive science research, e.g., “brain-friendly learning.”

?

Self- and time-management are closely related topics when it comes to learning advice. The goal of advisory sessions is achieving stress reduction while at the same time maximising learning productivity and effectiveness. An important part of this is learning to set priorities, effective time management, and integrating helpful time management techniques into everyday study routines.

Having doubts about studying?

Are you having doubts about your studies? Are you doubting your abilities, the subjects you are studying, or your career prospects?
If you are experiencing doubt, you should take the time to reflect on your own abilities, goals, and expectations. Ask yourself: “Where am I really at right now?” “What do I really want?” The more you know about your situation and how you feel, the easier it is to decide on next steps.

?

Orientation advice helps students navigate the process of (re)orientation and change by providing both counselling and helpful information.

?

If your doubts have more to do with learning problems or exam anxiety, then contacting learning tips and advice?or the psychological counselling?team may be more appropriate.

addiction counselling

Suddenly, everything is different from school… There is no doubt about it, organising a degree with its many different options and scope for freedom while at the same time performing at your best is mentally demanding.

?

And so begins the search for structure, support and orientation, social contact, relaxation, confirmation, distraction, and feelings of pleasure

?

An antidote to a lack of orientation, loneliness, fear, self-doubt, stress, and boredom is often the increased consumption of media or other substances.

?

The new addiction counselling service offers free and confidential counselling sessions to help you regain self-control where you may be suffering from an addiction or be at risk of developing one.

?

With the following short self-observation exercise, you can make a self-assessment about whether addiction counselling is right for you.

?

Answer the following questions honestly, reflecting on yourself:

  • Do you find it increasingly difficult to delve deeply into your studies, to research independently, to read a lot, to stay focused and concentrated?
  • Do you often consume media (mobile phone, internet, social networks) or certain substances to distract yourself from feelings you don’t want to feel or thoughts you don’t want to think?
  • Do you sometimes consume media (e.g., social media or computer games) or certain substances to give yourself a quick sense of achievement, reward, or pleasurable feelings?
  • Do you surf the internet and social networks in order to avoid other activities and social contacts?
  • Do you consume alcohol or other drugs due to feelings of a loss of social control?
  • Do you often find yourself unable to stick to your own plans and boundaries?
  • Have you ever taken or thought about taking performance-enhancing substances to help you cope with your studies, exam stress, or the pressures of combining work and study?

If you answered “yes” to several of these questions, well done on being honest with yourself. This is the first important step towards change!

?

Take the second step NOW by seeking out support?in order to win back your freedom and self-control!
