READINESS FOR SKILLS LAB INTENSIVE

Uncertainty about the intensive portion of Skills Lab next week could cause nervousness, anxiety, or maybe even fear. These feelings are nothing unusual when embarking on important phases in your educational experience. One way to turn uncertainty into excitement is to be better informed about what is to come.

There a few ways you can look ahead and look forward to next week. First, review next week’s resources and materials and download those you need. Then, use the checklist in the Learning Resources to get a better sense of how prepared you are and adjust accordingly. Finally, in this Discussion, you will engage with your colleagues about preparation, goals, and questions related to next week’s Skills Lab Intensive.
