Singapore University of Social Sciences

The complex socio-economical-political world that we live in today will require us to constantly adapt and meet evolving needs. The acquisition of the learning-to-learn competency is an approach to manage this challenge. While the ability to learn is intuitive, the ability to learn well requires a conscientious effort. The aim of this course is to help students gain metacognitive awareness of their learning processes and behaviours. With the newly gained insights, students will learn to identify and utilize effective study skills and learning strategies. Students will have a chance to practise and enhance these skills by applying them while completing contemporary social-issue related learning tasks. This is to demonstrate to students that learning can be impactful and meaningful, learning is for life and learning can become a lifelong habit.
