There is not a day that goes by where we don’t hear the phrase “information overload.” We all have worlds of information at our fingertips and at the same time, it can be more of a struggle than ever to get started on a project because the sheer amount of sifting that has to be done. Today, Dave Dettman is here to break information overload down for us into some manageable steps. You will walk away knowing what resources are at your fingertips and how to approach research in and efficient way.

Students in the School of Health Sciences and Wellness are strong and energetic students who are committed to their areas of study and to serving others, but they come to UWSP with a number of challenges that previous generations did not experience including hurdles around post-pandemic learning, a mental health crisis amongst their peers, a changing economy and career outlook, and overall uncertainty in the world around them. Students are working more hours than ever before and feel more pressure than previous generations to create a wider portfolio of skills and experiences. We want to support students with the resources they need to learn professional skills but also tools to thrive in this fast-paced world. Joining us today is Brian Krolczyk who will be helping us build integration and personal resilience skills by zeroing in on the topic of balancing commitments and obligations.

SHSW students often are often exposed to a breadth and depth of science courses and we often hear feedback that courses like Chem and Bio are a lot tougher at the collegiate level than the high school level. Even strong students with in-depth science backgrounds sometimes come up against challenges. Luckily with a few study strategy edits and willingness to try something new, students can thrive. Here to talk to us about this today is Erin Speetzen, Ph.D., who is not only an expert in all things chemistry and study strategies, but who is a strong advocate for student on this campus.
