Successful Study - Skills for teaching assistants and early years practitioners

Successful Study is a guide for students embarking upon an education related Foundation Degree without previous study experience. It is aimed at those re-entering Higher Education (HE) after a long gap or for those who left school without thinking about going to university to study and are now starting HE study for the first time.

The world of study at university can be a daunting and bewildering place for new students unfamiliar with the academic processes such as writing essays and presenting portfolios. This book offers clear and straight-forward explanations of how to prepare for study, how to work at higher education level and how to tackle assignments.
