Description
This project grew from several years of fun, interactive workshops on academic and personal success with both students and teachers. From these interactions, two main concerns stood out. First, many students felt overwhelmed and unprepared for their transition to higher education. Second, when they took academic success courses, they again became overwhelmed with all the exercises, programs with numerous steps, and information. They found it hard to sift through it all to find the most positive and immediate strategies for their new and, yes, sometimes chaotic lives. This book was written to show students how to be successful in a very tangible, interactive, and practical way; in other words, to get back to basics that work. The 3rd edition builds and improves upon the original project vision.
New to This Edition
All topics are updated with the latest research while maintaining the "get to the heart of the matter" approach. The following information expands upon the logical learning sequence of revision and highlights the new and revised features to support the goals and guiding principles of Navigating Your Future Success, 3rd edition.
REVISED! Use of Effective Behavioral Change Techniques. Short, simple, and effective techniques are used so students can actually make these behavioral changes. This book does not offer the "ten steps to stress management," crowded with copious amounts of information, losing students in numerous steps and long lists. The stress management system is a simple yet highly effective two-step method.
REVISED! Personalized Assessment and Interactive Techniques. Allows students to assess their strengths and identify areas that need improvement. Each chapter begins with a behavioral assessment of their current skill level and ends with the development of personalized action plans.
REVISED! Readability and Relevant Learning. With an emphases on approachability and practical application, this book uses a simple, conversational writing style to help students learn and personalize their strategies for skill development. The content is academically rigorous, but explanations are grounded in relatable examples and written to be easily understood by students of all levels. Each chapter explores why these skills are needed and how to develop them fully. Peppered with humor and "gee whiz" facts, this material is designed to be less theoretical and more personal.
REVISED! Managing Technology and Media. Technology trends can be a distraction or a blessing for students. This book acknowledges tools like social media and smart phones and addresses how to utilize (or limit) them effectively for academic and personal success.
