| The
Story Behind This Site |
Students
attending Learning Strategy workshops have asked for more access to
learning strategies and many suggested having them on a web page.
This site provides that and also for each strategy a 'One
Page Summary Handout' and a 'Quick Reference Bookmark',
both of which are in Adobe Format for ease of printing. .
