How will the TiC Programme benefit me?

This programme will enable you to achieve a permanent change in your thinking and behaviour. Specifically, you will identify your BIG goals – the inspiring goals which you truly desire and be given the tools to reach those goals. You will close the gap on what you know you should do and you what you actually do. You will become more focussed and empowered to achieve dramatic results in your academic and personal life.
You will improve your self-image and literally re-write the script of your life. You will feel valued, supported and appreciated. You will turn your non-productive habits/actions into productive ones. You will overcome personal fears and barriers to success. You will develop leadership qualities, which you can leverage in all areas of your life.
Finally, by following the valued principles and methodologies in this Programme, you will achieve all of your goals and dreams!

How do I best utilise the TiC Programme?

There are 12 main video lessons, bonus lessons and resources tabs. You can view or listen to the course material at your own pace, anywhere, anytime and by any device – even on the go when on the tube or bus, for example! You will also receive the ‘Student’s Handbook’ which corresponds with the lessons.
The educational philosophy of the programme is captured in 3 easy steps:

Step 1:   Review all the videos and learning materials within the first few weeks to enable you to have an understanding of the Programme

Step 2:   Go back and revisit Lesson 1. Go through Lesson 1 for the next 30 days, every day, for 30 minutes at some point during the day.  Review the Lesson worksheets. Repeat this process for the other Lessons and Bonus Lessons.

Step 3:   After you have completed the Programme over 12 months, keep reviewing the Lessons and the ‘Student’s Handbook’ as this is a life-long learning programme.

How do I load TiC onto my smartphone?

We are currently building an app for Android and Iphone which we will roll out in due course. For now, you can access the Programme by the internet on your smartphone and save as a Favourite.

The video is buffering or freezing

Run a speed test to see how your internet is performing. Some connections are too slow to play videos at high quality settings without buffering.  If you are using your smartphone, perhaps you are in a bad signal area.  You can use the MP3 recordings as a temporary solution if the video does not play

I have a technical issue not covered in this section

If your technical issue is not covered in this section please contact the Director of Studies, Thinking into Character – Abdirahman Farah abdi.farah@rcl.ac.uk

I have a question on a concept / principle I am learning about in one of the Lessons

Please be sure to join the regular TiC Zoom calls and ask questions during the lesson facilitation. There will be time at the end of each Zoom call to ask questions and share any learnings. It is very likely that other students have the same type of questions. Collaboration with other students gives incredibly valuable insights. If your question is still not answered or you need immediate support, please contact the Director of Studies, Thinking into Character – Abdirahman Farah abdi.farah@rcl.ac.uk
