ISBN: 9781285080994 出版年：2012 页码：182 Dave Ellis Cengage

Maintaining the key features and core topics of the original Becoming a Master Student, but streamlined into a 160 page brief text, THE ESSENTIAL GUIDE TO BECOMING A MASTER STUDENT, is ideal for shorter orientation courses and first-year experience programs. This text invites students to put new ideas into action immediately, helping them discover their abilities and reach their full potential in the classroom and beyond. Tools like the Discovery Wheel, the Discovery and Intention Journal Entry System, Power Process articles, and the Kolb Learning Style Inventory (LSI) guide students through self-assessment and discovery, creating a foundation from which to build solid strategies for academic growth. An emphasis on Master Student Qualities throughout the text encourages students to strive to develop the attitudes and behaviors of successful people. The Third Edition features a new chapter on Using Technology to Succeed, which provides the essentials of information literacy, using technology to capture ideas and get organized, joining virtual teams, and using social networking responsibly.
