Andrew Barker, Associate Director of Library Services, who is coordinating the programme, said: “Directed Study Week gives students the opportunity to work on the skills that underpin all programmes to ensure they achieve the best results possible. We have evolved the programme this year to make it more focussed on academic skills, as these are the sessions that have been most utilised by students in the previous years.
"We would like to hear the thoughts of students and staff on Directed Study Week, so if you have any ideas of how it should develop in future, please contact us at directedstudyweek@ljmu.ac.uk.”
