A practical framework for studying

Peter Edwards organizes study skills as a sequence of learnable practices, from planning study time and setting goals to taking notes and recalling information. Chapter-opening objectives, vocabulary, and concepts give each section a clear starting point, while end-of-chapter Feedback Journals prompt learners to consider what they have understood and what still needs work. The strategies are presented for gathering information across print and digital formats, including books, tablets, computers, and smartphones. Metacognition—the practice of reflecting on one’s own thinking—is a central thread, linking the book’s techniques to the process of adjusting how one learns.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Adults seeking structured approaches to planning and reviewing their study habits
  • Learners who use both print and digital resources
  • Teachers or parents looking for study-strategy material to use at home or in class
