About this title

Synopsis

The best-selling study book of all time, "How to Study" has gained immense popularity among students of all ages. Now updated and expanded, this "A-plus" read includes how to create a work environment, excel in class, use the library, do research online and more. "How to Study" is just one of seven essential study books, two new and five completely updated, that make up Ron Fry's "How to Study Program."

Reviews

Grade 7 Up?"Ace" is written in six chapters and presents information on test anxiety; time management; study techniques; and standardized, objective, and written test-taking techniques for adolescent and older students. Fry includes photocopyable charts to aid in organization and promotes other titles in his study series. The information is generally clear, but the author's constant interjection of off-the-cuff comments and forced humor interfere with the focus and tend to be annoying. How to Study is more clearly written with less divergence. It contains a valuable chapter on the hook up and use of on-line services to gather information. Other chapters cover note-taking, attitude, time management, reading skills, and library-research techniques. These two titles do contain worthwhile information and will probably be put to their best use in schools or continuing-education programs or in the hands of teachers and guidance counselors who can winnow out the superfluous from the essential.?Joan Soulliere, Wenham Public Library, MA
