Specifically written with the needs of teaching assistants who are undertaking the foundation degree in mind, this book clearly explains what is expected from study in Higher Education and how this can be put into practice by including: clear definitions of the key techniques for effective university study; practical activities, handy hints and reflective questions; unique chapters that focus upon exams, essay-writing, revision, portfolios, presentations and displays; and examples based on the experiences of real teaching assistants. Assuming no previous study experience, the easy-to-use approach of this text should be key to the successful study of teaching assistants who are returning to formal academic training after many years.

Review

"The key attraction of this book for me is that it is written specifically for teaching assistants undertaking foundation degrees. Everything is relevant and clearly set out, it is an easy book to dip into...I have acquired a number of textbooks to help with my studies and this is one I will be using frequently." Learning Support magazine, April/May 2006
