Kiwi course exported to UK

A NZ-designed course in study skills is now being offered to secondary school children in seminars at UK universities.

Backed up by online material, students are connected to the StudyEdge virtual learning environment that delivers a wealth of extra readings, tests and audio-visual content.

As students can access material at a level that meets their individual needs, the course works for secondary school students of different ages (13 to 18) and levels of academic ability.

University lecturer and Parnell Learning director, Bruce Johnstone, launched the StudyEdge course in NZ during 2009. Since then, hundreds of NZ secondary school students attended his seminars and discovered independent learning techniques to become more successfulstudents.
