Study
Skills in Practice (a
college textbook) combines the straightforward instruction of a textbook
with the comfortable accessibility of a workbook. It provides all the
practice college students need to develop their own strategies for
independent learning. The approach is down-to-earth and supportive, with
step-by-step instruction in each skill--from problem -solving and time
management to reading and study strategies and exam preparation.
Exercises reinforce each new idea. Study Group suggestions in each
chapter encourage students to collaborate with their classmates in a
systematic way to promote more effective learning techniques among
themselves. A Summary Form at the end of each chapter helps students
condense what they have just learned into a form than can be used
effectively in other courses. 384 pages, paperback. Published by
Houghton Mifflin, 1993.
