Help with learning
Learning Development are dedicated to helping you learn.
Academic Skills Workshops are held regularly on campus – there’s no need to book into workshops, just find out when they are on via the dedicated Blackboard pages and show up. The same goes for drop-in sessions on the Central Coast campus – just rock up to the Learning Centre armed with your questions and away you go.
You can register for an Individual Consultation with a Learning Adviser to discuss your assignments or any other learning problems you might have. Your learning adviser won’t edit or proof-read your work but they will help you plan and finish it to a high standard. Instructions on how to register to attend a consultation are on Blackboard. Go to 'My Other Sites' then press 'Learning Development' and on the left hand side of your screen press 'individual consultations'.
E-consults are also available if you can’t physically get into campus. Simply email your question with appropriate attachments (like your draft essay or assignment question) to econsult@newcastle.edu.au. Learning Advisers aim to respond to your question within 24hours Monday to Friday.
