Tools for Learning: A Guide to Teaching Study Skills

by Meredith D. Gall, Joyce P. Gall

If students are to absorb what they are taught, they must first be aware of the necessary methods by which they may do so; in other words, they must "learn to learn." As cognitive psychology research has shown, it is just as important for a student to learn how to process information as it is for an instructor to know how to teach.

This book offers a wealth of advice on teaching study skills to K-12 students, including detailed guidelines on how best to teach such invaluable skills as proper test preparation, paper writing, and time- and stress-management.
