Academic Resources

The Academic Resources tutors have created over 1500 videos designed to assist for specific UF courses. Our goal with these materials is to show how the tutor approaches problem solving and the importance of understanding the underlying concepts. Professors also stress these active approaches to learning in the classroom, as opposed to rote memorization and passive learning techniques.

This video content includes video solutions for previous semesters’ exams, exam reviews, course-specific concept videos and more. This first playlist has 18 videos to help improve general overall study skills. Scroll down to see videos for other courses and more on study skills.
