Review and reflect
Use our How to benefit from feedback elearning which includes how to access your feedback on Turnitin.
Start to create an action plan of the areas you need to improve upon, it can also build your confidence to consider the areas where you received positive feedback. This can help you to stay on track with the things you need to do.
There are online tools and apps to do this, such as Notion but it can be as simple as using a table:
| What? | Improve referencing | Learn how to find better academic research |
|---|---|---|
| How? | Complete Library's referencing elearning | Watch video about Library Search |
| When? | Wednesday afternoon | Tuesday morning |
| How long? | 1 hour | 30 minutes |
Understand your reassessment brief
Review the guidelines provided by the module team and understand any specific requirements for the reassessment. In this piece of eLearning you will learn about the different parts of the assessment brief, how to use your assessment brief to plan and complete your assessments, and where to get help if you don't understand the assignment brief.
Managing your time
Using your action plan, break down the reassessment into manageable chunks and allocate time for each element. For example, what information do you need to find? How long do you estimate this will take?
In time management you will learn what time management is and why it is important. For example, how to prioritise tasks, and how to avoid procrastinating over your reassessment.
Academic support
Lots of support is available to you, from finding information to writing your reassessment. Use our Skills website to find more information on the specific areas you need help with.
Other support you may need
Look after yourself. Take regular breaks and do things that reduce your stress, such as exercise, mindfulness and hobbies.
Your wellbeing is just as important as the academic side of university life. Wellbeing and Counselling are here to help you succeed in your studies and in your life by giving tips for taking care of yourself, and provide you with an opportunity to talk about your problems confidentially.
