The Tutoring and Academic Assistance Center Presents: A Three-Part Workshop Bootcamp Series on YouTube

How Can a Bootcamp Benefit Students?  

Anne Devine, a Lead Academic Coach in the TAAC, has worked in collaboration with Renee Dimino to develop dynamic content that aligns with COS curriculum, and regardless of whether students are enrolled in COS, this Bootcamp has something for all students as it was developed to help students acclimate to college life with tips and strategies for a successful semester.  New workshops will be released each month starting now—our first workshop is now live on our YouTube Channel!

Bootcamp Topics and Schedule:

I. Introduction to Microsoft Word - This Workshop is Now Live!  The first workshop of this series is a basic introduction to Word. Students will learn how to save a document, format a paper to APA and MLA standards, and learn different skills to help them navigate through Word. 

II. Time Management: Preparing for a Successful Semester  

This workshop will be released in three parts:  

Part 1: October 10th- Time Management Self-Assessment 
Part 2: October 17th- Creating Weekly Schedules and Planning Ahead

Part 2: November 14th- What is my Learning Style? Students can discover what type of learner they are by taking a learning style self-assessment. Students will learn about different study tools and tips based on their learning style.
