Adult Learner's Guide to College Success
by Laurence Smith and Tim Walter
This book is designed to build the confidence of adult learners and to present strategies for basic skills such as classroom learning, studying, reading, note-taking, time management and test taking.

Teaching Adolescents to Think and Act Responsibly
by Ann-Marie DiBiase, John C. Gibbs, Granville Bud Potter, and Matthew R. Blount
Holding students accountable for their actions and inspiring them with greater expectations is to respect them, to believe in them as people with positive potential. The EQUIP approach helps facilitate mature and accurate cognitive habits and behavioral skills in at-risk or potentially at-risk adolescents in the school setting. The curriculum addresses the ""three D's,"" common in these adolescents-developmental delays in moral judgment, self-serving cognitive distortions, and social skills def...

In his provocative new book, cognitive scientist and bestselling author Roger Schank argues that class size, lack of parental involvement, and other commonly-cited factors have nothing to do with why students are not learning. The culprit is a system of subject-based instruction, and the solution is cognitive-based learning. This groundbreaking...

Importance of Average
by Stephen Farenga, Daniel Ness, Dale D Johnson, and Bonnie Johnson
The Importance of Average calls attention to the policies and practices that discriminate against the silent majority of students in the American educational system.

Each of these factors has created a pervasive psycho-educational belief of average ability. The authors challenge wh...
