year.</p> <h3>Here are 5 tips to help you succeed at online learning:</h3> <h4>Set up your workspace</h4> <p>Your environment can have a big impact on how you work. Create a space that encourages you to be productive and focused. Some things that can help elevate your workspace are good <a href="https://www.artsci.utoronto.ca/faculty-staff/internal-resources/health-safety/workspace-ergonomics">ergonomics</a>, lighting and plants to help boost your mood and work comfortably. An organization system can help you reduce clutter and easily access all your course materials. Check out some <a href="http://blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca/lifeatuoft/2020/07/03/desk-organization/">tips on desk organization</a> in the Life at U of T blog post by Rachel.</p> <h4>Build a routine</h4> <p>Staying motivated at home can be difficult, but routines and habits can support you to stay on top of your work. Explore the times when you’re the most productive and use that time to do your most important work.</p> <p>Taking time for rest, eating and physical activity are just as important, and can even help your focus and memory. <a href="https://www.moveu.ca/moveuanywhere">MoveU</a>, <a href="https://harthouse.ca/fitness/online-fitness">Hart House Fitness</a> and <a href="https://kpe.utoronto.ca/sport-rec-university-toronto">U of T Sport & Rec</a> offer lots of great activities and resources online that you can incorporate into your schedule.</p> <p>And don’t forget to have some fun and give yourself something to look forward to! Hang out with friends online, make new ones by <a href="https://www.ulife.utoronto.ca/">joining a club</a> and stay updated on upcoming <a href="https://studentlife.utoronto.ca/events/">events</a>.</p> <h4>Engage in the content</h4> <p>Getting engaged in your coursework can make studying and learning online more enjoyable. Asking questions and participating in discussions are just a couple of ways to get involved and stay focused.</p> <p>In <a href="http://blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca/lifeatuoft/2020/07/15/how-to-pay-attention-in-online-classes/?fbclid=IwAR1LhFqd0P6JTdxlFmjnodpEjUoYJajjvJek1KqLiOsepLOhBH01poeJxlo"><em>How to Pay Attention in Online Classes</em></a>, Life at U of T blogger, Olive shares that even just writing down a question helps her to stay tuned in to an online lecture. And if you feel comfortable enough, ask a question live or share a comment in the online discussions.</p> <p>Exploring how you study and take notes best can also help you engage better. For note-taking tips, check out the <a href="https://studentlife.utoronto.ca/wp-content/uploads/ASC_How_to_take_notes_from_classes_handout.pdf">How to Take Notes from Classes</a> (PDF) from Academic Success and the <a href="http://blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca/lifeatuoft/2019/06/25/note-taking-handwritten-vs-typed-notes/"><em>Note Taking: Handwritten vs Typed Notes</em></a> blog post by Rachel.<strong> </strong></p> <h4>Reach out to the U of T community</h4> <p>Connecting with your professors, instructors and TAs can be a great way to get more involved in your studies. Introduce yourself and drop into their online office hours. If you’re not sure how to start a conversation, check out these <a href="https://studentlife.utoronto.ca/task/talk-to-your-professors/">tips for talking to your professors</a>.</p> <p>Join an online <a href="https://studentlife.utoronto.ca/program/study-hubs/">Study Hub</a> or <a href="https://sidneysmithcommons.artsci.utoronto.ca/recognized-study-groups/">Recognized Study Group</a> to connect with other students and help each other stay motivated when studying.

Check out this <a href="https://studentlife.utoronto.ca/wp-content/uploads/SMART-Goals-Worksheet.pdf">SMART Goal Worksheet</a> (PDF) to help you set clear and reasonable goals for yourself.</p> <p>With coursework, read each course syllabus carefully, and make a calendar with all your commitments to break down projects and ensure that you can meet deadlines.
