AU Studypedia is your reference for many aspects of student life and it is with you every step of the way, from the start of your first semester until you graduate. You’re bound to face challenges along the way, but Studypedia has advice, guidance and specific techniques to manage your academic, personal and social student life through the themes below:
Many students feel overwhelmed by the syllabus because they read every single word in every single sentence. However, there are many effective reading techniques for different types of texts that can be adapted to your preferences.
Let your fellow students be a resource—for example, by asking them to explain something you don’t understand, dividing texts between you, or discussing something you’re struggling with.
Do yourself a favor and take good notes during lectures and from texts – you’ll thank yourself when the exam approaches! Also, make sure to note any gaps in your knowledge as you go, so you remember to review them later.
Aarhus University has approximately 40,000 students - and just as many different types of students. AU Studypedia has no mission to tell you how to study and it offers no miracle cures. Instead, there are examples of some of the many different ways you can approach student life, and ideas about how you can find out what works well for you.
