About this title

Synopsis

Students entering Early College High Schools are pioneers! Relatively speaking, few have come before them, and parents did not attend an ECHS. This book clarifies language, introduces the college credit system, the importance of transcripts (and how they follow students forever), discusses the differences between the typical high school class and a dual credit college class, and deliberate actions for academic success. As importantly, empathy, respect, self-efficacy, and support systems are focused upon in terms of the teenage learner. As part of a three-part series, the ECHS learner can truly prepare for the challenges of the four year college as well as professional degrees, master's degrees, and life-long learning. Book 2, Making Collaborative Group Work Work! focuses on the challenges of group projects in both college and high school, and how to be successful in that setting. Book 3, still in production, really digs into the way teachers design lessons for student success. These methods, when understood by students, allow them to self-manage their learning, a necessary component for success in the four-year college setting. Enjoy and learn more at echsguidebook.com.
