As part of a new initiative for Level 2 students aimed to BOOST motivation and academic health in the New Year the sport and fitness team are launching \u2018BOOST your success for 2016\u2019 in January. The BOOST initiative will consist of three one hour OU live sessions as well as an associated BOOST forum that will be open from 4th-14th January. There will be plentiful opportunities for you to share ideas and discuss the content of the tutorials with the tutors and your fellow students. <\/p>\n
The details for each of the three OU Live BOOST sessions is as follows: <\/p>\n
4th January at 7.30pm\tBOOST your motivation<\/strong>\tAn application of sport and performance psychology skills and how these can be used to BOOST your academic motivation and performance<\/p>\n 9th Jan at 9.30am\tBOOST your grades<\/strong>\tAn innovative and fully tailored session to meet L2 sports students\u2019 referencing and academic writing needs. <\/p>\n 11th Jan at 6.30pm\tBOOST your academic health<\/strong>\tAn interactive session aimed at developing independent study skills and finding academic resources – particularly useful for E217<\/p>\n The forum will contain a discussion thread for each of the three tutorial topics and these discussions will be moderated by the tutor leading the OU Live session. <\/p>\n These sessions are not compulsory for the level 2 modules but have been designed specifically with sport and fitness Level 2 students in mind to compliment the range of activities and resources within the modules. You may wish to select those sessions that you feel are most relevant to your own development or some of you may wish to attend all three. <\/p>\n We very much look forward to seeing you at the OU Live sessions as well as the forum discussions and hope that you find these resources enjoyable and beneficial to your academic development. <\/p>\n Links to the BOOST OU Live room and the BOOST forum will appear on your module website in January. <\/p>\n The Sport and Fitness Team<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" As part of a new initiative for Level 2 students aimed to BOOST motivation and academic health in the New Year the sport and fitness team are launching \u2018BOOST your success for 2016\u2019 in January.
