Book Description

1571290672 978-1571290670 September 1, 1999 Workbook
To improve study skills, the authors concluded management of students' time is critical along with the motivation to improve their grades. The other keys to maximizing study time involve three main functions: input, the actions performed to enter information in your brain; process, the acts executed to process the information once it is in your brain; and output, the ways you retrieve and organize information from your brain. Most students stress the outputs -tests & reports- and ignore input and process functions.

In this workbook, based on the text Study Power, the authors elaborate the study skills presented under these three functions. Students learn such input skills as listening, note taking, and study reading; process skills such as self and time management, learning and memory, concentration, daily review and test preparation; and output skills such as test taking, report writing, and oral reports. Since class participation is a critical place for learning, it appears in each function.

The workbook adds more detailed explanations, rating scales and forms for mastering the study skills, checklists to ensure the student has prepared properly, knows the procedures in each skill and exercises that allow him/her to practice the skills in current classwork.

Along with the Study Power text, the Study Power Workbook is a powerful study skills resource.

5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST for any Student!!, November 8, 2000
By 
"jaejae21" (North Carolina) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Study Power Workbook: Exercises in Study Skills to Improve Your Learning and Your Grades (Paperback)
I bought this workbook to go along with the Book Study Power: Study Skills to Improve Your Learning and Your Grades. This workbook has been extremely helpful in helping me study and definatly improving my comprehenstion of the materials I am learning in School. Not only does this workbook help you LEARN the study skills taught in Study Power the book, but I have also made many photocopies of their Checklist, Listening Evaluations(to be used after a class), and Comprehension Matrix to be used while/with my regular classes. In Study Power the Book and Workbook, they cover: Part A: Input, which covers Chapter 1 Listening, Chapter 2 Note taking, Chapter 3 Study Reading, Chapeter 4 Class Participation as Input. Part B: Chapter 5 Managing Yourself, Chapter Managing Time, Chapter 7 Concetration, Chapter 8 Managing your Learning, Chapter 9 Managing your memory, Chapter 10 Class Participation as a Process Skill, Chapter 11 Test Peparation. Part C: Chapter 12 Test Taking, Chapter 13 Test Anxiety, Chapter 14 Test Taking, Chapter 15 Papers adn Written Reports, Chapter 16 Oral Reports, Chapter 17 Class Participation as Output. This sounds like alot, but really it isn't. The book was an excelent read, and there was not a boring moment, and as for this workbook, it was easy to follow and had additional information the Book did not. Also, it has many exercises to help you learn there method and will come in handy the rest of your student career. Have Fun, and Hustle!!!

This review is from: Study Power Workbook: Exercises in Study Skills to Improve Your Learning and Your Grades (Paperback)
I was under the impression that this book could be used to teach a 5th grader organizational skills. It really is not what I wanted.
