Practicing College Learning Strategies presents practical applications of study skills in a clear and concise, workbook style format. The text is known for providing ample exercises throughout each chapter, reflecting the author's belief that students can be taught how to learn more effectively through hands-on reinforcement. Now produced in two-color, the Fourth Edition has a sleek design and is organized around a new learning strategies framework. This framework includes chapter-opening objectives that preview the materials students are about to learn.

The author presents the latest research on the brain, helping students to understand how they learn, how to capitalize on their strengths, and how to adjust for their weaknesses. Structured activities and exercises guide students in the reflection process to make the information personal and useful and to provide practice opportunities. The straightforward explanations and structured activities that model the learning process make this text especially useful for first time college students or returning adults.

Survival Kit in the first pages of the text provides a quick overview of the most basic skills that students need to be productive from "day one." New to the Fourth Edition is a "Checklist for Evaluating your Classroom Savvy."
Two new critical thinking features, Making It Concrete and Making Connections, help students analyze and synthesize what they've learned, and apply new concepts or skills to other courses or situations.
Measurable Learning Outcomes have been added to the opening of each chapter, and can act as the basis for selecting content, classroom activities, and assessments such as chapter or unit tests and final projects or exams.
Case Study: What's Your Advice? asks students to synthesize and evaluate what they learn in the form of advice to others.
Virtual Field Trips are integrated technology boxes; these point to online assignments that explore college social skills such as managing finances, campus safety, and health and well-being issues.
Brain Bytes show students how memory strategies work and provide tools to maximize retention for improved performance, school achievement, and personal success.
