The Story of Human Development

The Student Study Guide for this first edition elevates the notion of study guidance to a new level. Beginning with Deb Poole's personal message to students, the narration throughout the 'guided review' sections provides students with a new degree of insight into their own learning practices. The Student Study Guide follows the conversational tone of the text, making it among the most reader-friendly and comprehensive printed student supplements available. By the end of the story, students should not only have a firm grasp of material, but also the process by which they reached that point of understanding. The Student Study Guide's features include chapter highlights, key terms and concepts, comprehensive guided progress tests with multiple-choice, fill-in-the-blank, matching, short answer, and essay questions, and a fun study activity for each chapter. Each chapter also contains two 'exit tests' drawing on the main topics of the 'guided review' sections, enabling students to self-assess once all review activities have been completed. The Student Study Guide was prepared by Wendy Bartkus of Adams State College; author Deb Poole graciously assisted with editorial duties, and was heavily involved in the organization of content.
