商品簡介
Hopper (Middle Tennessee State U.) identifies brain-compatible learning strategies new college students can use to improve their learning. She covers time management, goal setting, learning principles, processing information from lectures, learning styles, test-taking strategies, managing stress, and information literacy. This edition has new and revised chapters on strategies needed on day one for success, and resources on campus, at home, and in the community. It discusses ways to process and transfer information into long-term memory and strengthen connections that allow for learning; reading strategies for textbooks; and critical thinking strategies needed for researching and evaluating sources. It expands on the steps of the learning process, includes learning outcomes, and has new practice exercises and updated opener maps, research on multitasking, and virtual field trips with more activities and videos. A new companion website with quizzes, video clips, articles, activities, flashcards, PowerPoint presentations, and other resources, is available.
