Motivation and Learning Strategies for College Success: A Self-Management Approach (Revised)

If you haven't used Motivation and Learning Strategies for College Success in your study skills course, it's time for a change! This popular text combines theory, research, and applications to teach college students how to become more self-directed learners. Study skills are treated as a serious academic course. Students learn about human motivation and learning as they improve their study skills. The text does not offer recipes for success or lists of quick tips. The focus is on relevant information and features designed to help students to identify the components of academic learning that contribute to high achievement, to master and practice effective learning and study strategies, and then to complete self-management studies whereby they are taught a process for improving their academic behavior.
