Industry Reviews

Many students may be able to access both the book and materials to develop their study skills effectively by themselves; especially if they have received study skills support previously, or have already developed effective study habits, as the book and materials would give them new ideas for improving their skills. The strength of the book for study skills specialists is the range of materials it offers, from note-making and note-taking, through to basic maths concepts. The book also offers advice on ways to use strategies most effectively, as demonstrated in chapter 4 which advises on the of use Q-notes. The book's strategies and ideas, especially the use of technology, would apply to any student, and across the range of learning differences. It can also be adapted for both FE and Secondary students. -- Kevin Smith Study skills are critical in order to achieve success. They allow students to flourish and discover how they learn best. Study skills guides or books can be used by everyone. In order to reap the most benefits from study skill guides, it is essential to get ones that are best suited to you and your learning disability. I got this one by SAGE publisher. It has helped me to grow academically and understand different concepts vital in academia i.e. critical thinking and writing. Unlike most study skills guides this one comes with electronic resources as well. -- Student review
