Synopsis

This best-selling text presents new and returning college students with practical, hands-on methods of increasing their performance inside and outside the classroom.

The new edition has been extensively updated to include an even stronger integration of the theme of "Self-Management", reinforcing the importance of character and personal responsibility. All the interactive exercises and assessments have been revised to promote critical thinking, and a new culminating chapter now focuses on exploring majors, career development, and service learning.
