I wonder if the pro-learning behaviour previously mentioned is something qualitatively different from the study skills. I mean study skills offer the mechanics for studying better. But I guess what we're looking is for something that triggers a desire/willingness to learn. I imagine that most people who have completed high school or even undergraduate courses must have experienced this at some point at some level for some subject matters. Whatever we call it, once this has been activated it becomes easier for the student to successfully direct their own learning to some extent.

Idk I’ve always felt like the “study skills” classes where just a way to extract money from freshmen without having to teach anything.
