Support your high school students’ mental health, wellbeing and academic progress with The Study Samurai Library.
Student mental health, wellbeing and academic performance are connected. Improving one aspect improves the other.

School, study, stress and mental health are critical concerns for our young people, their parents and teachers. The top four issues of personal concern for young people are:
Teachers and parents are constantly responding to the stress and worry that academic and school life brings. The problem is finding expert resources or the time to create them.
The consequences of not addressing these top concerns our young people experience are felt in the classroom and at home. Unfortunately, the longer the stress around school and learning continues the greater the impact on our young people’s mental health.
As teachers and experts in the areas of study skills (Dr Prue Salter), mental health and wellbeing (Rocky Biasi) we’ve created an online resource from our experience presenting to over a million students, teachers and parents between us over the past 20 years.
75 video lessons from Prue and Rocky on study skills and wellbeing topics
ELES Online Study Skills Handbook Website with 48 study skills topics
Human Connections Online Wellbeing Resource with 16 modules
I found this very helpful and so did my friends. I always learn something and they help me a lot with my study. Today I loved hearing about the sleep app which I want to get. I also will try to stop having excessive sleep-ins on the weekend, but will try power naps, and plus I am going to try to dim my computer screen when I read at night. These are really helpful tips. Thank you again!

Hi Prue and Rocky, Just a short email to thank you for informing me of the existence of your study skills and mental health and wellbeing resources a few weeks back. I have promoted them widely in our school via student and staff bulletins. You're doing a great job! Best wishes,
Deputy Principal
This offer is only valid for schools that have not previously subscribed. For most schools this works out at around $2 per student. If your school already subscribes to the Study Skills Handbook you only pay half price to upgrade to the Study Samurai Library. That’s 3 online resources for the price of 2!
Set up EVERY student with their own individual login details so you can track students’ progress and they can see what they have completed and so students have ownership of their course. This is best practice and our recommended option. If you choose this option, we will send you a spreadsheet to complete of the number of students in each class, then we will create an access code for each group. You then give students their access code so they can register and create their own username and password to access the site.
Combine the two options, set up the generic login for all of the school community to use and access the site AND choose to track certain groups by setting them up with individual logins. You can add additional groups to be tracked at any time. Disadvantage – if students are to be tracked they must login with their individual login NOT the school login which could confuse some students.
Set up a single generic login that the whole school community (parents, teachers and students) can all use to login. Advantage – everyone uses the same login and you can put it in the school newsletter and create a direct link so that it can autologin from a secure section of your site. Disadvantage – no tracking of student progress or individual student ownership of their course. Schools who subscribed prior to 2019 are automatically set up with this option as this was how it was previously set up, but they can now change at any time to one of the other options.
