Reseña del editor

A core text for first-year university students enrolled in a student success course or workshop; this text is also a useful reference guide for undergraduates across faculties and disciplines. Filled with practical techniques for today's student, Making the Grade: A Guide to Study and Success is an insightful, easy-to-use guide that will help students develop the skills they need to excel at the university level. With an emphasis on skill-building in core areas such as time management, reading strategically, and effective note-taking, this text provides an introduction to university life, along with strategies for effective note-taking, active listening, productive group work, and much more. Authored by an international team whose members have been working in the field since 1993, Making the Grade: A Guide to Study and Success has been classroom-tested in Australia, where it has remained the top-selling text of its kind since 1997. Now thoroughly updated for the Canadian market, this excellent skills-oriented text includes exercises that allow students to practise newly acquired strategies such as back-planning, chunking, and the Cornell note-taking system. Designed for today's student, Making the Grade reflects the changing reality of Canadian classrooms with sixteen chapters that incorporate coverage of new technology such as course blogs, podcasts, and online class discussion boards, as well as specific advice for students with disabilities and students for whom English is an additional language.
