Abstract
Effective study habits contribute to good student performance. Universities often provide workshops or guidebooks for new students to learn good study habits. Based on our knowledge of how habits are formed, these approaches to foster study habits are ineffective for many students. We plan to offer intrinsic and extrinsic rewards for them to develop good learning habits and time management. An online tool will reinforce repetitions for desirable study behavior to become habits.
