Do you sometimes feel that you do not belong in this program, or some of its courses? The instructors assure you that you do belong! To help combat that sense of imposter syndrome that you might be feeling, let's explore the notion that your cognitive styles of learning are similar to your peers' learning styles.
You may already know that OSU and other universities have studied course materials and technical tools to make improvements that level the playing field amongst you and your peers.
