Synopsis

The Complete Student Handbook provides a thorough but user-friendly guide for all university and college students, from setting up and organizing study to finding a job at the end of their course. Being a student means more than simply mastering a subject area - there are many "invisible" skills required, such as writing reports, making presentations, teamwork and working to deadlines. Equally important, such skills are crucial to future employers, and this Handbook will help you to demonstrate and develop all of these abilities. The Handbook, written by an experienced team of study skill advisors, is divided into three clear sections. The first part provides advice on organizing time and study, and includes chapters on topics such as time management, active reading, creative problem solving and working in teams. Part Two looks at communication skills, and covers writing essays and reports, presentation skills and seminar skills amongst other things. The final part provides guidance on moving from college into employment, and includes chapters on placement experience, investigating careers, applying for jobs and being interviewed. Each chapter includes:* An introduction to the topic* An Action Plan containing practical step-by-step advice* Suggestions for further reading* Full cross references to other chapters. Whether you use The Complete Student Handbook as a workbook or as a reference guide, you will find it the essential companion to any course.
