Student Academic Center Workshops
The Student Academic Center offers free workshops each semester for students. Here is the link to the Fall 2010 semester workshops:
http://sac.indiana.edu/smarterStudy
Undergraduate students are also invited to enroll in the EDUC-X 156: College and Life Long Learning, a 2 credit, semester long, pass/fail course that is associated with the workshops offered on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings under the same title. The advantage of enrolling in this course is the opportunity to meet every week in an individual hour-long conference with SAC staff to discuss the application of knowledge gained from the workshops to the academic demands of the courses the student is presently taking. Such structure helps the student to make actual changes in their learning strategies—it is like having your personal “academic fitness trainer”!

EDUC-X 101: Learning Strategies for MATH-D 116
The Student Academic Center will offer the following course starting Fall Term 2010:
EDUC-X 101: Learning Strategies for MATH-D 116 Class Number 31252 Tuesday and Thursday
4:00-5:15 p.m.
BH 322
This is a 2 credit, semester-long, graded course, open to students enrolled in MATH-D 116 during the same semester.
Course Description:
Although the pace of MATH-D 116 is comfortable for most low-skilled math students, the material is nevertheless quite challenging and requires that students to be able to learn math independently. The X101 course is specifically designed to help students to become active, independent problem solvers who understand the finite mathematical concepts in contrast to an approach that relies on memorization, learning step-by-step procedures and outside authority telling the student how to solve the problems. Therefore X101 should be very beneficial for any D116 student. Students will be given many in-class opportunities to practice applying these higher level thinking skills of “questioning” and “thinking” to more finite math problems beyond those provided in the finite textbook and periodically under simulated test conditions. In addition, special individual walk-in evening D116 help sessions will be available to X101 students.
Course Objectives:
• Become more active learners who take control of their own learning by anticipating the upcoming lecture/discussion, summarizing the most recent lecture/discussion, and formulating questions they hope will be answered as they attend a lecture/discussion or read a text.
• Improve reading efficiency by learning how to read math texts actively, strategically, and critically to identify major math concepts and procedures.
• Analyze their own problem solving processes by becoming aware of what they know, need to know and are learning so they can relate new information to prior knowledge and solve math problems more independently.
• Approach learning as an on-going process that requires the use of a variety of study skills and time management.
• Discuss D116 topics and learn collaboratively with X101 peers.
• Learn effective test taking strategies for math exams and practice a variety of study tools that can be applied to all college courses.
• Practice the application of D116 knowledge under simulated test conditions followed by feedback concerning problem solving.

Workshop for Undergrads at Northwestern University
Program at NU for Undergrads from Under-Represented Groups in Science
Northwestern's psychology department is hosting a program on June 4th and 5th for undergraduates who are members of traditionally underrepresented groups, and who are potentially interested in pursuing graduate study in psychology. Activities will include a workshop designed to help with the graduate school application process and opportunities to meet psychology department faculty members and graduate students to learn what graduate school is like and how they might fit into the graduate programs and laboratory groups at Northwestern. Travel and accommodation costs associated with participation will be covered, and the application process will be fast and free (applications are due by April 30). If you know of any relevant students who may be interested in this program, I would be very grateful if you could bring it to their attention! You can simply direct them to our website for more information:

Need Help with MATH M118? Watch the Finite Show!
You may have noticed the article on the front page of the IDS about “The Finite Show.” This very innovative approach to helping students with MATH M118 questions premièred in 1998 on campus cable channel 32. It was a live broadcast where students could call in questions and watch the instructor, Steve McKinley, work through them on campus TV. The show ran for three years, and individual episodes are still available for viewing at the web site below:
http://www.imds.iu.edu/imds/bb.shtml
You will note that the above link is a library of digital video titles. “The Finite Show” episodes are down about mid screen. Please note that you need broadband to view them.
In the first episode Steve McKinley shows students where the finite portion of the human brain is located (literally!). These videos are still current in their relationship to M118 material and may be an excellent resource for students.
