Day at Warwick Uni.... The Library...... Workshops.........

Wow Warwick is like its own little community.

The library was amazing, I loved the study areas......  and those moving shelves how funny, I am going to put Beth in there next time and try moving them and see if she can stop them before they squash her!!!  (just for fun!!)  After already getting in a lift that was not for students and then being told to ssshhhh I will probably end up being excluded from the library.....

The early childhood studies academic support librarian is Chris Bradford c.bradford@warwick.ac.uk 


Been online looking at what Warwick have to offer, I feel that although I have two years at Nuneaton it is important to become and enjoy being part of Warwick life in preparation for year 3 and 4.

Found some great workshops all 2 - 3 hours long so not to bad at Warwick which I hope to attend along with students from my course
Delivering effective presentations 21st October -  I fear it may take more than one workshop for me to become effective but I will try
Reading and note taking 13th October
Effective learning strategies 1st November
Speedy reading 8th November
Introduction to critical thinking 29th November

Also found that the bookshop is in the arts centre.


I have Warwick printer credit now for when I am next there looking at books etc...........  go.warwick.ac.uk/printercredits
