Learn How to Study by Derek Rowntree

Professor Rowntree's book has been a bestseller since 1970, and has been used by over 250,000 students. Now thoroughly revised and up-to-date, this edition of LEARN HOW TO STUDY includes information gleaned from the very latest research of study techniques. It includes chapters on organising study time, writing essays, tackling textbooks, making notes, learning from seminars, and taking exams successfully. But rather than taking an old-fashioned prescriptive approach, the book's main concern is to encourage and help students to work out for themselves the most appropriate ways of studying. And, uniquely, this new book considers the question of the 'hidden curriculum' and suggests ways that students can cope with the unofficial demands made upon them.
Derek Rowntree, Professor of Educational Development at the Open University, is a well-established author who has written many books on teaching and learning. He lectures widely and has acted as a consultant on educational films.
