   Just to let you know, in response to increasing interest in apps, I’ve added a new section to the 21st Century Study Skills tutorial – Apps explained: http://go.warwick.ac.uk/wmscpd/current/studyskills/3/apps/ If you have any suggestions for new sections, additional pages or updates to existing content in the Online Study Skills tutorials please don’t hesitate to drop me a line. http://go.warwick.ac.uk/wmscpd/current/studyskills/information/ Cheers Cath
