Studying in the Content Areas, Social Sciences, 2nd Edition
This text make use of actual
textbook materials drawn from major works in each of the content
areas covered. It addresses study strategies, using the ten
scales of the highly acclaimed LASSI (Learning and Study Strategies
Inventory) by Claire E. Weinstein, Ph.D.
Since the material used to approach the study
skills is from actual college textbooks, Studying in the Content
Areas responds to the need for transferability of skills. This
ensures relevance of the program and facilitates the transfer
of learning directly to academic subjects.
The LASSI: Strategies presented in Studying
in the Content Areas coincide with the scales of The Learning
and Study Strategies Inventory (LASSI). The text includes two
LASSI's for students to use as pre- and post-test course assessments.
Audiocassette: The text is accompanied
by an audiocassette for use in "Taking Notes from Lectures,"
one of the study skills presented. This lecture cassette gives
students the practice they need in listening and notetaking skills.

manual is available.
