Experts Highlight Need for Learning Skills and Habits Before and During College
Students often excel in exam-focused school systems but face challenges adapting to university learning, which values curiosity, independent study, and critical thinking. Experts suggest that universities should actively teach learning skills during the first year to bridge this gap. Additionally, building habits like self-discipline, time management, digital collaboration, and responsible use of AI before college can better prepare students for academic and life demands, especially in increasingly digital and online education environments.
