Learning Strategies for College and Career
Third Edition Hettich, Campbell, © 2018, 450 pages
Learning Strategies for College and Career focuses on a student success model built on a foundation of research and effective practices in the literature of educational psychology, psychology, student affairs, and higher education. The model is used as a framework for the entire book, but the text itself is arranged around traditional clusters of ideas, issues, learning strategies, and processes that are known to facilitate student success.

Description
We are also proud of several other changes to the third edition of Learning Strategies for College and Career. In particular:
- Help-seeking, as an important behavior for college success was included in Chapter 4: Help-Seeking Behavior and Campus Resources. By valuing opportunities to get expert assistance, students are positioned to respond to situations which might negatively impact their long-term goals.
- The concept of using feedback, both personal and academic, was included in the chapter on assessment. By using feedback to gauge success, students can become more quickly resilient and responsive in the face of negative course feedback or more reflective and motivated in the face of positive course feedback.
- This edition includes broader coverage of the context of learning in general. We have included foundational information about academic policies, courses, and instructional modes, as well as addressed learning strategies, memory theory, metacognition, and how to study.
- This edition also includes broader coverage of the notion of self-regulation or self-management. Rather than limiting the self-regulation and management to traditional academic issues such as time and studying, we have made connections with a larger set of issues that students need to manage. These include wellness issues such as money, health, sleep, and nutrition, as well as personal issues such as emotions, stress, communication and listening.
