WELCOME MESSAGE
Welcome to DS102 - Study Habits Development,
DS102 online is great for motivated students who need some help with how to study in college. It's great for working students who can't get to campus for every class and who would like to get the most out of their study time. I cover learning styles, note taking, test taking, stress management and goal setting.
