Evaluation of an academic reinforcement program for health science students.
An Academic Reinforcement Program has been used for three years at the University of Texas Medical Branch to assist health science students with test taking, note taking, memorization, labeling, charting, and time-scheduling techniques. An evaluation indicated that the majority of students who have learned the techniques improved their academic grades with less expenditure of study time, learned to deal with some problems which affected their studies, and gained self-confidence through the encouragement and support of the staff who taught the techniques.
