Academic Skills Centre
Room 102
A. E. McKenzie Building
Website
The Academic Skills Centre offers a broad range of academic support services to assist both students and faculty. The Centre’s primary goal is to help students become more efficient learners. Students are encouraged to access the Centre’s services through either appointments that address a student’s specific learning question or concern, or group workshops that deal with some of the most common learning issues. Individual assistance is available by calling (204) 727-9739 to set up an appointment that fits your schedule. Check the bulletin board outside the Academic Skills Centre in room 102 A.E. McKenzie Building (main floor) for details and times of workshops, or check the website at http://www.brandonu.ca/student-services/academic-skills/
Learning Skills
Learning Skills services are available to assist with the transition to university, and to help students succeed while at university. We provide assistance with topics such as using ‘study time’ wisely, taking lecture notes, reading textbooks effectively, preparing for exams, taking multiple-choice tests, summarizing information and enhancing memory. In short, we help you to learn how to learn.
Writing Skills
Writing Skills assistance is intended to help students improve their writing skills. We help students learn how to identify and correct mechanical errors, perfect the structure and organization of their writing, and use prescribed essay format/referencing styles. We do not advise students on the content of their assignments, nor do we edit or proofread papers.
Math Skills
Math Skills services are available to help students who feel uncomfortable using math in the context of other disciplines, or who desire to strengthen their math background. We provide assistance with fundamental topics such as fractions, factoring, equation and problem solving, trigonometry, and with the development and application of basic math skills that are used in a variety of other disciplines and fields. We also help students completing course assignments that have a mathematical component, by clarifying and reviewing the mathematical concept involved.
