Product Description

Student Feedback from London Metropolitan University

Why didn't they tell us this before? ... This is the best bit of learning I've ever done!

At school I was told to go away and get a job in a shop ... Since doing study skills I'm getting 'A's' for my assignments!

I was het-up, frightened ... I just wanted to run away and hide ... Oh I love it now!

When I first got to uni I kept thinking I would be found out ... I know I can do it now.

When I first got here I thought they were all looking at me and thinking 'What's that old woman doing here?' ... It's my university now! --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.



Product Description

The eagerly-awaited new edition continues to provide a truly practical guide to achieving success at university.

Whether you are going to university straight from school, a mature student, or an overseas student studying in the UK for the first time, this is the book that will help you better understand how you learn, gain a clear idea of your strengths and areas for development, organise yourself for study, write and research academically, pass exams, and cope with stress at university.

Now completely revised and restructured, the authors use their twenty-five years of hands-on experience with students in university to provide genuinely useful advice.

Key features of the new edition:

- 12 new chapters for coverage of everything you need to know including: computer skills, becoming a confident writer, note-taking, how to build your memory, and the new Personal Development Plan.

- Packed with handy tips, real-life examples and useful activities.

- A brand new companion website with extensive material to support you in your quest for academic success - www.sagepub.co.uk/burnsandsinfield .

Tom Burns is a Senior Lecturer in Learning Development at London Metropolitan University

Sandra Sinfield is Academic Leader in Learning Development at London Metropolitan University.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very useful, 22 Sep 2008
I'm not a student, but have been using this book at work. Lots of very useful tips and strategies - I really like the note-taking section, which makes you think of a better way to take notes - so that not only do you not forget everything from a meeting or presentation, you seem to come away with much better knowledge of the key points.
