The University of Hertfordshire offers a research skills day to help Year 12/13 students who are taking the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ).

As part of the day schools can choose a selection of activities from the following list:

  • Thinking skills
  • What is research
  • Sources of information
  • Critical thinking
  • Bias
  • Academic reading and note-taking
  • Writing up and constructing an argument
  • An afternoon session in the Learning Resource Centre when students can access electronic journals.

The University of Hertfordshire actively supports the EPQ as a qualification that helps students to develop the independent learning skills that will be required when they arrive in higher education.
