Be prepared for Trimester 1 online with Study Support
A great way to prepare for the year ahead is to visit Deakin’s UniStart site to learn how to hone your study skills.
While we will be studying online for Trimester 1, UniStart is offering a range of online sessions to help you build your study skills, and has tools, resources and checklists that you can read at your own convenience.
