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!!!

We are using this as part of our high school home school curriculum. It has proven to be very helpful to my students.

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.
