(1) Details of Study Skills Handbook
Originally compiled by three specialist panels at the University Mathematics
Teaching Conference 1978, the Study Skills handbook has been revised over
the years with input from over 30 universities and similar institutions.
The first four editions were produced by the Shell Centre at Nottingham.
This edition has been produced by QED of York for the University of
Nottingham.
Among the many authors, cartoonists and other contributors are Pam Bishop,
Diana Burkhardt, Keith Dugdale, Roy Dyckhoff, John Hepple, Margaret Jackson,
Philip Maher, Shirley Maher, Brian Orman, Des Rutherford, Gil Slater and
Malcolm Swan.
(from blurb on back cover)
This Study Skills guide has been used and improved over the years. Many
colleges buy annually in bulk because they find it so useful for their
students. Please contact the address below for details of bulk purchases.
It is amazing that by our actions many colleges tacitly assume that students
know how to study. Yet this is patently not the case. Furthermore, we
rarely consider how to teach studying techniques, which is what this booklet
addresses.
Many of these issues are pertinent in all subjects. This book addresses
them under the following headings:
* Learning from Lectures
* note taking skills etc
* Other Resources
* effective library use
* new technologies
* Revision Strategies
* the need for a strategy
* learning from fellow students
* Exam Technique
* before
* during
* after
