Book Description
Many first-semester college students find themselves discouraged after a first exam or assignment is far from the grade they expected to earn. Students sometimes don’t know where to start when it comes to changing how they study in order to meet the new demands of college classes. This book is designed to help students, tutors and study skills instructors develop “systems of thought” to help them address questions like, “Why didn’t I do as well on that test as I was hoping?” “Why don’t I remember what I read?” or “How am I supposed to know what to study for if I don’t have a study guide?”
This study skills textbook goes beyond providing a list of study tips. Instead, it helps students, tutors and study skills instructors think through crucial college-student processes so they can develop realistic, practical and effective study strategies. This book includes chapters on how to get and stay organized, read and remember textbooks and other college level-materials, take effective notes, get the most out of lectures, make realistic study schedules, prepare for different types of exams and identify and change self-defeating behaviors.
