Exam Stress

How do you generally feel when exam season begins? Fine? Totally chilled? Or do you start to worry and become tense or anxious at the thought of all those tests? If you do, then you’re not alone. Exam stress is common among students, and if it affects you, it’s possible your friends might feel the strain, too. 

It’s normal to feel a bit stressed about exams. But if you’re continually struggling with low mood or anxiety, you might be putting yourself under too much pressure to succeed. This course will show you how you can reduce exam stress by talking it through with friends or family, and by other methods like taking regular study breaks, eating well, and exercising.

Exam stress has many symptoms, both physical and emotional. We decided to tackle this topic by using two different characters suffering from different effects of exam stress. This gave us the opportunity to show how different personalities and approaches bring up different challenges and feelings of anxiety. Some of us put things off and procrastinate, whereas some of us over prepare and get overly worked up. 

Whichever way you are, you’ll find something relatable in the scenarios this course presents, and you’ll benefit from the advice it offers. Bright, colourful videos make for high-impact learning, and interactive sections give the learner time to reflect and digest the information at their own pace. We didn’t feel it was appropriate to have a quiz at the end, but we did include a workbook with the main points of the course so that the main points can be studied if the learner wants to refresh their knowledge.
