Promoting Cognition in College Students Caroline Ph.d. Seefchak

A trend in colleges and universities today is the acceptance of students who, though they have passed high school, are not yet ready for the rigors of postsecondary education. Many of these developmental college students do not know how they learn, and they do not have the self-knowledge to regulate their own learning. This book, incorporating a study of developmental students, tells how teaching college students to use cognitive skills, by knowing their own learning styles, multiple intelligences, and automaticity, can lead to their gaining the necessary self-effi cacy, the thus the empowerment over their own learning, to be successful students and adults.
