This workshop will help you understand what academic probation means, plus you'll:
- take a look at what didn't go well last semester - did you have distractions outside of school, is your classroom environment creating challenges, did your study plan not pan out, etc.
- learn about grades and how to track to them
- discover new learning strategies and increase your confidence
- identify your next steps and make a plan to move forward.
