As one of our participants from this past summer’s research writing bootcamp shared, it is a “gentle, recurring tap that reminds me to turn to my research for a few hours every week.</span></span></span><br><br><span><span><span>The support groups will meet via WebEx weekly at a mutually convenient time for approximately an hour of small group, cohort-based discussion of the writing process and shared reflection on your own writing.

This group, Fostering Online Learning Improvement and Opportunity (FOLIO),  will consist of a cohort of volunteer student peers, both undergraduate and graduate, who serve as a “brain trust”, for other students seeking information and resources regarding how to become successful, virtual learners in the time of COVID. <div><br></div>
    <div>This group which will consist of members drawn from all colleges, UAA, FDC, DOIT, Student Affairs, Student Disability Services, undergraduate and graduate student representatives and faculty senate representatives.</div>
