2. Create a Workspace

Flex coursework can be completed anywhere, but some spaces are more conducive to learning than others. Think about your own learning style and preferences. Do you like to listen to music while you work, or do you need complete silence? What type of lighting do you need? What materials will help you stay focused and productive while you are working? Take the time to create a workspace that best fits your needs. 

  • Set up an environment that works best for you 
  • Minimize distractions 

Strategies Include:

  • Use headphones
  • Let others around you know when you are working
  • Set your phone to silent
