FreeThis workshop – based on Smashing VCE: How To Study And Still Have A Life, Ticking Mind’s refreshing new take on study skills – look at how to teach students to study effectively. The study guide takes students through the ins and outs of what study is, how to set specific study goals, and how to study effectively for each of their subjects in VCE.
