10/11/2020

0 Comments

 
Virtual learning as the new norm brings a different and possibly more challenging experience for many. Extensive time in front of the computer screen becomes disorienting as the lines between school and home life begin to blur. ​Our goal for this meeting was to assist our members by sharing tips on setting themselves up for success for the forthcoming mid-term season. We began our meeting sharing the results of a poll taken via Psi Chi's Instagram; The question centering around how various members deal with stress. We felt this would be the best way to get as many tips out to members, while keeping in mind that there isn't exactly a one size fits all approach to stress management, considering members respective living situations are different. We wrapped this portion of the meeting up with additional, traditional stress management strategies such as; practicing healthy sleep habits, connecting with loved ones, and mindfulness meditation. The second half of the meeting proceeded in a similar fashion, now focusing on healthy study habits. We began by stressing the importance of active and engaged reading, followed by frequent breaks as a means of bolstering information processing. Techniques such as pomodoro were outlined, and we emphasized the importance of avoiding cramming and attending office hours. The possibility of a Psi Chi study session was introduced as we understand the benefits behind transactive memory. At the meeting's end, we shared some tools and resources to help with the study process as well as on campus counseling and wellness centers, followed by time for questions. As we dive deeper into the semester we want our members to know that we are here with them, and these tools are intended to make their lives easier. After all, we want our members to succeed in wherever their respective paths takes them.
