TSR Study Together - STEM vs Humanities!

Hello everyone!
There's been some interest recently in ways you can study together on TSR, so we've put together a new project where you do just that :smile:

Welcome to...

:woo:

TSR Study Together - STEM vs Humanities :woo:

What is it?
Each week, TSR Community Staff will run a live Study Together thread :yep:

This is open to all levels of study! You can come along during the session to tell others what you’re working on and then drop back in to encourage others and give an update on how it’s gone for you :u:

This could mean sharing that you’ve improved a skill or absorbed some new information, or maybe you’ll want to vent about something you’re finding tough :s-smilie:

Either way, it’ll be a social and supportive place to study alongside others and hopefully help to keep you on track! Everyone is welcome, whatever level of study you're at, and you're free to revise whatever you need to do during the sessions :smile:

When is it?
Sessions will run on Tuesday evenings from 4.30pm to 6.30pm. The first session will be next week, 20th February, and the final one will be 18th June.

Teams
To add a fun competitive element, we’ll be pitting you against each other depending on the subjects you’re studying :colone:

It's STEM vs Humanities - Chemistry geeks vs history buffs, budding biologists vs the bookworms, maths whizzes vs intrepid geographers :fight:

If you want to take part, comment below which camp you’re in and I’ll assign you to your team. Perhaps you’re a Jack of all trades and you’re studying a mix of subjects? No problem, you can choose which team you want to be on – I'm generous like that :wink2:

Once you’re down to take part, I’ll tag you in each week’s Study Together session thread just before it starts. To be counted each week, I just need to know you've turned up at some point during the two hours :smile:

No matter which team you're part of, you can study whatever you need to during the session.

Prizes
You can win rep prizes both for your individual efforts and as part of your team:

25 rep points will be awarded to you for each session you participate in :^_^:

50 rep points will be awarded on weeks where you’ve hit a study streak :rave:

so if it’s the second session you’ve attended in a row, you’ll be awarded double points and get 50 rep points that week instead of the usual 25

We’ll also be awarding a whopping 500 rep points to each member of the team who win overall – that means the team whose members have participated in the most sessions between them.
To make this as fair as possible, you must have participated in at least half of the 18 sessions to be included in your team’s prize :dancing2:

How to join in
Comment below letting me know which team you belong in and I'll tag you in our first session next week. It's that simple! :biggrin:

Yes it’s a thread you post on. And I think the humanities team is actually outnumbered lol (I’m Team stem btw) if you join at 5:00 uk time, you’ll have an hour and a half to participate :smile:

Team Humanities is definitely outnumbered as it stands, but they might well turn out to be the most dedicated team :cool:

We'll soon find out!

Can I join in? I'm prospective Cultural Studies MA student (in sep) but as I have been away from University life for a while ( years) I feel I need to get into the studying frame of mind again, getting in as much reading and learning as I can. Team Humanities for me!
