I have problems understanding the content of my course
我在理解我的课程内容方面有问题;


Many students are unsure of the expectations of their course and can find the content difficult. You need to plan at the start of semester to make sure you understand the expectations and can learn the content to ensure successful completion of your assessment tasks.
许多学生对课程的期望感到不确定,并且发现内容很难。您需要在学期开始时进行计划,以确保您理解期望并能够学习内容,从而确保成功完成您的评估任务。


Ask yourself: 问问自己:
 
  • Do I understand the expectations of my course?
    我理解我课程的期望吗?
  • Do I understand the expectations for each of my subjects?
    我理解我每个科目的期望吗?

Begin each semester by reviewing your subject handbook entries and reading them carefully. Each subject handbook entry will note the required and recommended texts, assessment dates and times as well as additional reading and resources. It will also outline the Learning Objectives which give you a clear idea of what you should have learnt and the skills and strategies your should have acquired by the completion of your subject and course.

For most subjects, there will be clear guides for what you are expected to do each week or for each assessment. These are often given out by lecturers or subject coordinators through the LMS or in the
对于大多数科目,您每周或每次评估的预期任务将有明确的指南。这些通常由讲师或科目协调员通过学习管理系统(LMS)或在课堂上发放。

first week of class. 第一周的课程。


If you’re still not sure, you can also reach out to academic staff. Being proactive about what you don’t understand is an important skill to develop for your University success. Both Canvas LMS and your subject outline list key staff information - you can approach staff in their weekly consultation times or you might like to write a clear email stating your student ID, name, the subject code and name, and your questions. The clearer your request is, the more likely your academic will understand it and be able to answer it or point you in the right direction.
如果您仍然不确定,您也可以联系学术工作人员。主动询问您不理解的内容是为您的大学成功发展的一项重要技能。Canvas LMS 和您的课程大纲都列出了关键的工作人员信息 - 您可以在他们的每周咨询时间接触工作人员,或者您可以写一封清晰的电子邮件,说明您的学生 ID、姓名、课程代码和名称,以及您的问题。您的请求越清晰,您的学术人员就越有可能理解并能够回答或指引您正确的方向。


You can also check if Peer Assisted Study Support (PASS) program is offered for one of your subjects or form your own study group. You can often learn a lot from your fellow students.
您还可以检查是否为您的某个科目提供同伴辅助学习支持(PASS)计划,或者组建自己的学习小组。您通常可以从同学那里学到很多。

I have problems with writing, referencing, group work etc.
我在写作、引用、团队合作等方面有问题。


Many students find it difficult to adjust to the high expectations of University assessment. You may be asked to write in a way that is different to what you have done before. You may be asked to work with other students you don’t know or who have different levels of commitment to you. You may be asked to follow instructions for one subject that are different to those in another (for example, referencing styles). This is all normal for a tertiary level of education. These adjustments can occur at any stage of your degree, in the transition from school to uni, or from first to second year, from third year to honours, or from undergraduate to graduate school. Each year, the expectations rise.
许多学生发现很难适应大学评估的高期望。您可能会被要求以不同于以前的方式写作。您可能会被要求与您不认识的其他学生合作,或者与您在承诺程度上不同的学生合作。您可能会被要求遵循一个科目的指示,而这些指示与另一个科目的指示不同(例如,引用风格)。这在高等教育中都是正常的。这些调整可以在您学位的任何阶段发生,从学校到大学的过渡,或从第一年到第二年,从第三年到荣誉年,或从本科到研究生院。每年,期望都会提高。

I have problems with staying up to date with my studies
我在跟上我的学习进度方面有问题

It can be easy to get behind at University. There are only 12 weeks in a semester, so it is easy to lose track and, suddenly, it’s week 4 and you’re a third of the way through the semester. Then it’s really hard to catch up. It can be tempting to get involved in other activities or be distracted by important life events. Your role at university is to stay on top of your workload. One of the most important things is for you to organise and manage your own time.
在大学里落后是很容易的。一个学期只有 12 周,所以很容易失去时间的概念,突然间,已经是第 4 周,你已经完成了一个学期的三分之一。然后,赶上进度就真的很难。参与其他活动或被重要生活事件分心是很有诱惑的。你在大学的角色是保持对自己工作量的掌控。最重要的事情之一是你要组织和管理好自己的时间。

To help to stay up to date, you should begin each semester by reviewing your subject handbook entries and reading them carefully. Each subject handbook entry will note the required and recommended texts, assessment dates and times as well additional reading and resources.
为了帮助您保持最新,您应该在每个学期开始时查看您的课程手册条目并仔细阅读它们。每个课程手册条目将列出所需和推荐的文本、评估日期和时间以及其他阅读和资源。

Use the handbook entries to create a calendar when your major assessments are due and ask yourself the following questions:
使用手册条目创建一个日历,标记出你的主要评估截止日期,并问自己以下问题:
 
  • What are the pass requirements?
  • What are the penalties for late submission? 
    迟交的处罚是什么?
  • How do I apply for an assessment extension?
    我如何申请评估延期?
  • When is the exam period? When is the census date?
    考试时间是什么时候?普查日期是什么时候?
 
Then ask yourself, what else do I need to do in my life? Shopping, cooking, eating, sleeping, seeing friends and family, having fun time or down time: all of these things need to be thought through.
然后问问自己,我生活中还需要做些什么?购物、烹饪、吃饭、睡觉、见朋友和家人、享受乐趣或放松时间:所有这些事情都需要认真思考。


The Academic Skills website provides a range of resources and services to help you identify which skills you might need to work on and choose a strategy or approach that will help you stay up to date with your studies.


 
I’m not enjoying the course I’m in
我不喜欢我正在上的课程;

Many university students find that the first course of study they choose is not right for them. Ideally students will be in a course that they enjoy and they can succeed in academically.  If you have found that the course you have chosen isn’t right for you, it’s a good time to reflect on this and consider your options.
许多大学生发现他们选择的第一门课程并不适合自己。理想情况下,学生应该选择一门他们喜欢并且能够在学业上取得成功的课程。如果你发现自己选择的课程不适合你,现在是反思这一点并考虑你选择的好时机。

I often feel lonely 我常常感到孤独

Many students at Uni feel lonely, as they have moved away from their home, family and friends.
许多大学生感到孤独,因为他们离开了家、家人和朋友。

Loneliness can be a sign that some important emotional needs are not being met, such as feeling a lack of connection with others, and opportunities to share feelings and important experiences with someone.
孤独可能是一些重要情感需求未得到满足的迹象,例如感到与他人缺乏联系,以及与某人分享感受和重要经历的机会。

 
While it can be difficult opening to others about the challenges we are facing, sharing your experiences with someone you trust can significantly ease the feelings of loneliness. Others may not be able to resolve your problem, but they can offer their presence, emotional validation and support. If others are unaware of how we are feeling, they will not know what it is that we need from them.
虽然向他人倾诉我们面临的挑战可能很困难,但与值得信赖的人分享你的经历可以显著减轻孤独感。其他人可能无法解决你的问题,但他们可以提供陪伴、情感上的认可和支持。如果他人不知道我们的感受,他们就不会知道我们需要什么。
 
Of course this can feel uncomfortable or intimidating at first if we are not used to discussing these kinds of topics, however there are ways to help this. This includes increasing the frequency of contact we have with somebody, sharing an activity or experience together which opens new avenues for conversation, interacting with others in new contexts, and talking about deeper topics and emotions with them instead of superficial topics.
当然,如果我们不习惯讨论这些话题,起初可能会感到不舒服或害怕,但有一些方法可以帮助解决这个问题。这包括增加我们与某人的接触频率,共同分享活动或经历,这为对话开辟了新的途径,在新的环境中与他人互动,以及与他们讨论更深层次的话题和情感,而不是肤浅的话题。
