Book Overview

Every teacher would like to have a classroom full of smart learners. This accessible guide for middle school and high school teachers will show the reader how, through self-regulatory training and development, the classroom can be converted into a learning academy full of motivated, empowered students. Teachers will learn to help students develop five essential study skills as part of their regular classroom assignments: time planning and management, text comprehension and summarisation, classroom note-taking, test anticipation and preparation, and writing. Five-week curricula models are presented for each skill area.
