Inhaltsangabe:

For courses in Student Success or First Year Experience.   The activities and strategies in this book focus on three core principles―critical thinking, priority management, and personal well-being. These form the foundation for academic, career, and life success.   Choices for College Success emphasizes the power of personal choice and responsibility to help students maximize their talents and minimize their anxiety by building successful habits.   Teaching & Learning Experience: Power of Personal Choice and Responsibility Choices for College Success demonstrates how organized action and critical thinking will help students achieve academic success, create a healthy and balanced life, and realize their dreams. This program provides: · Critical Thinking: The RED Model for critical thinking presents an eloquently simple and practical model to carefully analyze and address school and life challenges. · Priority Management:Provides personal assessments and activities for students to reflect and apply the strategies introduced around the “choices they make”―and take responsibility for their journey using key principles underlying student success. · Personal Well-being: A multi-dimensional model for personal well-being and balance helps students navigate the transitions and adjustments to college life and is critical to their overall sense of balance in life.
