Teaching How to Learn Reviews

We need to teach students how to learn, not just what to learn. This book is full of valuable information on how to accomplish this, including practical lesson ideas, examples, and vignettes. Any educator will benefit from reading this book and thinking about teaching in a new way. -- Ganna Maymind, First-Grade Teacher
Illustrates specific researched-based strategies that develop tools for lifelong learning. The author provides several examples, practices, and applications for study skills, metacognitive thinking, and reflection for an effective, successful learning environment. -- Kathy Redford, Teacher
Provides a creative and badly needed approach to learning. I have been in public education for 40 years, and I have seldom seen a more creative text. -- Alan Grimsley, Assistant Professor
