The text is built upon a strong model of executive function development within a metacognitive framework.

The following parts guide students through a series of exercises that help them develop particular skills. In Part II, students hone the five skills in the executing group: initiating, planning, comprehending, monitoring, and evaluating. Part III introduces six additional skills: motivating, shifting, regulating, controlling, allocating, and task progressing. The final part focuses on the skills of self-reflection, self-correction, and resiliency. Providing students with a deeply reflective and highly interactive experience, Learning to Think, Thinking to Learn is an ideal resource for first-year orientation and student success courses and programs.

This hands-on guide to advanced critical analysis and argumentation will help readers to communicate in way that is orderly, rigorously supported, persuasive and clear.

Описание: A century ago, horses were ubiquitous in America. They plowed the fields, transported people and goods within and between cities and herded livestock. Then, in just a few decades, the horses vanished in a wave of emerging technologies. At the same time, those technologies fostered unprecedented economic growth, and with it a culture of recreation and leisure that opened a new place for the horse.

Описание: Most students struggle with learning how to find references, use them effectively, and cite them appropriately in a required format. One of the most common formats is that of APA. The authors all teach at the same university, where their current off-the-shelf reference book, while helpful, is filled with a lot of extra information that they do not use and contains missing or incorrect information. The cost of this book also continues to rise. In a search for something else to meet their needs, they discovered that there are no concise guides that deal with APA only that are cost effective or user-friendly for students who are not familiar with using references and formatting an essay in the APA format. In order to offer student writers a source of information that is concise and cost-effective, the authors have written this handbook to provide students with important information in clear, concise, user-friendly language, as well as to offer practical examples that will help them grasp the concept of secondary research writing. Much of the published materials present the nitpicky details of APA in very technical terms that are not easy to understand. This handbook presents the same information in simplified terms with images and step-by-step instructions in ways that will make sense to both undergraduate and graduate student writers. Additionally, student writers often struggle with understanding the concept of plagiarism, as well as how to find sources, evaluate the appropriateness of sources, and use sources in effective ways (e.g., how to integrate quotes, when to paraphrase, among others). This book provides this information in a concise and easy-to-understand format.
