Contraportada

Here's a complete guide for successful studying - concise, practical, time-tested, and free of gimmicks. Designed originally for freshmen at the University of Chicago, How to Study has helped generations of students throughout the country improve their skills in learning quickly and effectively. It's a no-nonsense plan of action filled with techniques, strategies, exercises, and advice. You'll have what you need to master your material, not just memorize it; learn the secrets of mental preparation for tackling tough assignments or exams; strengthen your skills for better reading, note taking, and listening; and improve your use of time in the classroom, in the library, and at home. It's a wealth of advice from the commonsensical ("Never begin study immediately after eating" and "Check every tendency to daydream") to the more psychological ("Use your knowledge by thinking, talking, and writing about the things you are learning"). Thoroughly revised and updated, this powerful little book can help any motivated and capable student work smarter, not just harder, all the way from high school through college.
