Pathway2Information and Pathway2Study Skills will be moving to a new study skills website which will bring these generic online study and information skills support together in one place.
Staff may wish to start updating any links in documentation or webpages to the new site at: http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/teaching/studyskills . Some changes to URLs and content may still occur during ongoing development so we advise not linking to particular pages at this stage.
Please note that the Pathways page at: http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/pathways and Pathways content in WebCT will no longer be available in the new academic year but redirects to the new study skills home page will be in place.
The content is now organised into three sections:
Additional sections entitled academic integrity, online learning environment and distance learners are also available.
A number of enhancements are still planned, including revisions to the home page to set study skills in a wider context of transition to university.
If you have any comments about the development of the study skills website please contact Rachel Scudamore ( Rachel.Scudamore@nottingham.ac.uk ).
If you have any feedback on the design or content of the pages please contact:
