Reviewed by Margaret M. Reed, Riley-Hickingbotham Library, Ouachita Baptist University, Arkadelphia, ARDeveloping Good Study Skills is an exceptional teaching and learning tool that fills a void among an all-too-scarce body of study skills visual resources.
Moving beyond generic how-to-study tips, this two-part program presents a holistic approach for achieving academic success. It is a logical progression for building effective study, time-management, and organization skills. Part one examines successful classroom behaviors, study strategies, and homework tasking. Part two focuses on test preparation, test taking, and research papers and projects.
Moreover, Developing Good Study Skills is sure to maintain viewer interest with its eye-catching, contemporary graphics, articulate narrators, and practical advice from an ethnically diverse sampling of students.
Teachers and students will also find the program’s accompanying guide and reproducible worksheets beneficial.
Highly Recommended for academic, school, and public libraries.
