Designed for Study Skills courses or first year orientation courses focused on academic success.

Learning to Learn: Making the Transition from Student to Life-Long Learner provides instruction on how to learn. Its focus is on teaching learning strategies rather than the more narrow “study skills.” It covers motivation, time management, learning principles, representation, text learning, lecture learning, test review, test taking, and real-world strategy applications. It also addresses important topics such as text anxiety, note taking, writing, error analysis, and study groups.
This book is written in a simple, straightforward, and entertaining manner. Simple principles, powerful strategies, and several practical examples―all based on solid research―are the hallmark of this worktext.
