A6 Scaffold with structured activities (and support) that will build student confidence and help them see the benefits they will personally receive by engaging with this. #LTHEchat

A5 Making use of active learning anf formative actitivies in the classroom. Extended think/pair/share. Being creative with how the learning is shared and making use of multimodal approaches for this and the feedback from tutors and/or peers #LTHEchat

A4 Students can choose to engage with it or not if it is self-directed. The same appplie to some extent if it is tutor--directed but if the study activity feeds into a subsequent class activity, formative or summative assessment this could help to motivate engagement #LTHEchat

A3 Not knowing where to start, procastination, a space to study (especially commuter students), outside commitments #LTHEchat

I think I'd still be distracted if i was supposed to be independantly studying but love any excuse to be outdoors especially when it is sunny! #LTHEchat

A good question. I think short videos can give a helpful overview and lead into watching somethign longer just as an abstract leads into a paper. #LTHEchat

A2 With my first years I integrate activities to help them try different approaches to note talking (paper and digital), how to find books/other resources on our library gateway, ways to collab/communicate online with peers if independent study feeds into group work #LTHEchat

My independent study tends to be focussed on a research project so the books/journal articles vary. #LTHEchat

A1 I'd have a notebook to hand and my laptop. Depending on the focus I might also have books and sticky markers for the pages #LTHEchat
