Study skills are treated as a serious academic course of study. Students learn about human motivation and learning as they improve their study skills. The focus is on relevant information and features designed to help students to identify the components of academic learning that contribute to high achievement, to master and practice effective learning and study strategies, and then to complete self-regulation studies whereby they are taught a process for improving their academic behavior. A framework organized around six components related to academic success (motivation, methods of learning, time management, control of the physical and social environment, and monitoring performance) makes it easy for students to understand what they need to do to become more successful in the classroom."Provided by publisher.College student orientationAchievement motivationLearning strategiesElectronic books.College student orientation.Achievement motivation.Learning strategies.378.1/98Dembo Myron H.998586Seli Helena998587MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910452970603321Motivation and learning strategies for college success2290732UNINA
